Key benefits of the FC-2180 (C-7496)
- Reinforced extruded PVC center core: provides even stress distribution and higher debris loading, preventing collapse under heavy duty use and extending time between cleanings.
- Premium polyester media: engineered for durability, easy cleanability, and efficient filtration that preserves water clarity over time.
- Antimicrobial end caps with added reinforcement: built to resist odor-causing bacteria and mold, while the antimicrobial formulation stands up to salt pools and high chlorine levels.
- Wider break-resistance bands: keeps pleats evenly spaced, reduces flutter from turbulence, and maintains optimal flow through the cartridge.
- End caps with integrated fittings: molded-in fittings simplify installation and removal, eliminating the need for PAD adapters that can slow flow and impede filtration.
- Embossed part numbers: easy to identify and reorder, helping you keep your system running without guesswork.
- Durable center core design: extruded PVC center cores with round holes distribute stress evenly, protecting against cracking and ensuring consistent performance.
