Pentair Genuine OEM Strainer Air Relief 1/4" (before 11/99) In stock$1899
Quick overview
- Old style screen The version fitted before 11/99, which is why the date is called out in the name.
- Quarter inch base hole The hole in the rubber base is 1/4 inch, sitting just a shade under, and that hole size is what separates this screen from its two siblings.
- Metal mesh on rubber A round metal mesh screen bonded to a rubber base, close in feel to screen door mesh.
- Measured, not guessed 1-1/4 inch diameter by 7/8 inch high, so it can be checked against the one you removed.
- Wide filter fitment Used across a number of Pentair sand filters and Purex cartridge filters.
- Three styles exist Pentair made three screens of this pattern for three tube sizes, so match the hole before ordering.

Product details
The Pentair 154578 is the old style strainer air relief screen, the version used on filters built before 11/99. It is a round metal mesh screen on a rubber base, closer in appearance to screen door mesh than to a filter element.
Picking the right one of three
Pentair made three screens to this pattern. They look alike, and the difference is in the dimensions and in the size of the hole through the rubber base, because each is matched to a different tube size. This one measures 1-1/4 inches in diameter and 7/8 inch high, with a 1/4 inch hole that sits fractionally under that. Measuring the screen you pulled out is the fastest way to be certain.
Where it is used
It turns up across a range of filters: Pentair Triton II sand filters in the TR40 through TR140 sizes, the commercial TR100C and TR140C, the Triton C-3, PF stainless steel side mount sand filters, and the Purex CFM and CFW cartridge filters.
