Product Overview

The Pentair 25023-0172S filter cartridge is an internal filtration module used in Sta-Rite System 3 SMD Series D.E. filters. Installed inside the filter tank, the module supports diatomaceous earth media which traps fine debris and contaminants as water circulates through the filtration system.

With 72 square feet of filtration area, the cartridge provides efficient debris removal while maintaining strong water flow through the system. The reinforced polyester media and durable molded end caps are engineered for repeated cleaning cycles and long-term operation. Replacing worn or damaged filter modules restores proper hydraulic performance and helps maintain clear, balanced pool water in Sta-Rite System 3 filtration systems.
