Product details
The Unicel C-7499 is a 100 square foot replacement cartridge element. It measures 7 inches in outside diameter and 29-3/8 inches long, with open 3 inch end caps at the top and the bottom, and it is built with 142 pleats.
What it fits
Unicel lists this element for American Products and Pentair, Hayward and Premier Springwater filters. By model that covers the Commander 100, the Hercules II in the 100 sq ft size and the Star Clear C-1000. If you are working from the old cartridge instead of the filter label, match the diameter, the length and the open 3 inch ends.
Cross references
The same element appears as Filbur FC-0650 and Pleatco PCM100SV, and under OEM numbers 27-084, 57014400 and CX1000-RE. Unicel itself carries it as both C-7499 and C-7698.
A cartridge that no longer cleans up after a soak, or that has flattened pleats or torn media, is the reason filter pressure climbs and turnover falls off. Replacing the element restores the flow the filter was sized for.
