It is the genuine part, carried under both the Sta-Rite and Pentair names.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFilter module PLM 200, 13 in. in diameter and 18-3\/8 in. tall. The PLM series shares the tank diameter across several sizes and changes the element height, so measure before ordering if you are not certain which model you have.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen to replace\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCartridges are cleaned, not replaced, until cleaning stops working. Once a thorough overnight soak and rinse no longer brings the filter pressure back down to where it started, the media has taken in more than it will give up. Torn pleats, pleats matted flat against each other and separated end caps are the other signals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat you get from a fresh element\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLower filter pressure, better flow through the whole system, and water that clears faster after a heavy swim or a storm. Two hundred square feet is a lot of media, and a filter running its full area works the pump less hard.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sta-Rite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48626965479636,"sku":"STA-06-289","price":426.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_e29ba401-827b-470f-9039-9751f51f4e04.jpg?v=1788718570","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/cartridge-200-sq-ft-mod-media","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
