Pentair 26" Sand Dollar® Top Mount Filter SD80 with 2" MPV

Pentair Sta-Rite® System:2® 150 Sq. Ft. Modular Media Filter (PLM150)

The Pentair Sta-Rite® System:2® 150 Square Foot Modular Media Filter (Model PLM150) is a compact, high-efficiency filtration system expertly engineered for small-to-medium inground pools, above-ground pools, and heavy-duty spas. Utilizing a single-piece, drop-in modular media cartridge featuring deep, shallow-pleat technology, this unit provides 150 square feet of effective filtration area that yields dirt-loading capabilities up to 15 times greater than sand filters of an equivalent footprint. The durable two-piece filter housing is crafted from high-density, weather-resistant thermoplastic, designed to handle an optimal operating pressure of 50 PSI while offering complete immunity to chemical corrosion and harsh UV exposure. Its innovative, balanced-flow internal hydraulics maximize media coverage to ensure uniform debris trapping across the entire element, allowing the system to run for significantly longer cycles between cleanings and supporting a design flow rate of up to 150 gallons per minute (GPM). Because it relies completely on its advanced modular element, the System:2 completely eliminates the need for backwashing, preventing thousands of gallons of water and chemical waste each season. Routine servicing is simplified by a heavy-duty, quick-toggle tank clamp for rapid split-tank access, an integrated continuous internal air relief system, and a 2-inch NPT plumbing union configuration for seamless integration onto modern pool pads. The dry shipping weight of the Pentair System:2 150 Sq. Ft. Modular Media Filter is approximately 43 pounds, providing a lightweight, eco-friendly, and virtually maintenance-free core for pristine pool water clarity.
