Product details

The Sta-Rite WC9-3 is the black tank o-ring for the Posi-Flo II cartridge filter in the PTM series and the PTM 135 series, and for the separation tank assembly.

What it seals

This is the o-ring at the tank joint, the one that has to hold once the pump comes up to pressure. It lives in a groove, it takes a set from being compressed for years, and it dries out and nicks in service. A leak that starts right after a cartridge clean is almost always this ring going back in tired.

Fitting it

Clean the groove out completely before the new ring goes in, and use a silicone based lubricant made for pool o-rings. Petroleum grease will soften and swell the rubber, and the ring that was going to last several seasons will not.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

Which filters does this o-ring fit?
The Posi-Flo II cartridge filter in the PTM series and in the PTM 135 series, and the separation tank assembly.
Why is my filter lid leaking after I cleaned the cartridge?
The tank o-ring is the usual answer. It takes a set in the groove, and once it is flattened, nicked or dried out it will not seal again when the clamp goes back on.
Should I lubricate it?
Use a silicone based lubricant made for pool o-rings. Petroleum grease attacks the rubber and will shorten its life.
Is Sta-Rite the same as Pentair?
Sta-Rite is part of Pentair, and this part is listed under both names. Ordering by the WC9-3 number avoids the confusion.
