Description
A high-capacity replacement cartridge filter element rated at approximately 200 sq ft filtration area. Designed for use in large residential in-ground pool systems. Optimized for flow efficiency, extended cycles between cleanings, and reliable media performance.
Compatibility & Fitment
- Fits pool filters that require a 10 1/8″ outer diameter × 28 3/16″ length cartridge with 4″ top and bottom center holes.
- Ideal replacement when your original cartridge shows signs of media collapse, elevated system pressure, or repeated cleaning with diminishing returns.
- Drop-in compatible with systems originally specifying PA200S or equivalent geometry cartridges.
Features & Specifications

- Outer diameter: ~10.125″ (≈ 257 mm).
- Length: ~28.1875″ (≈ 716 mm).
- Top hole size: 4″; Bottom hole size: 4″.
- High-flow core with advanced, uniformly bonded filtration media for improved dirt load and long life.
Installation Notes
Turn off the pool pump and relieve system pressure. Open the filter tank, remove the old cartridge element, and inspect the tank interior and seals. Install the new PA200S cartridge, ensuring proper alignment of top and bottom openings and full seating in the manifold. Reassemble the filter, restore circulation, and monitor system pressure to confirm normal operating range.
Maintenance Tip
Rinse the cartridge periodically to maintain performance. If cleaning no longer restores normal pressure or media pleats appear worn or collapsed, replace with a new PA200S to maintain water clarity and extend filter life.
