[Lifetime Warranty] 48-222 in-line Filter Screen Replacement - Compatible with Zodiac Polaris Vac-Sweep 280, 380, 280 TankTrax - Pack of 5

48-222 In-Line Filter Screen Replacement - Pack of 5

Key Features

  • Fine Stainless Steel Mesh: Specifically engineered to capture sand, silt, and small debris before they enter the internal water management system of pressure-side cleaners.
  • Corrosion-Resistant Construction: Built with high-grade metal mesh and a durable plastic frame to withstand constant exposure to chlorine, salt, and other pool chemicals.
  • Enhanced Pressure Flow: Designed with a precision-tapered cone shape to maximize surface area, ensuring optimal water pressure is maintained for wheel speed and the backup valve.

Replaces / Cross-Reference Part Numbers

  • Primary Part Number: 48-222.
  • Verified Cross-References: 48222, 9-100-8002 (Mesh Screen).

Compatibility & Fitment

This mesh filter screen is a direct replacement for the internal component of the 48-080 in-line filter assembly. Compatible brands and models include:

  • Polaris Vac-Sweep: Fits 280, 380, and 280 TankTrax models.
  • Polaris Sport: Compatible with the 3900 Sport in-line filter system.
  • Zodiac: Fits various pressure-side cleaners utilizing the 48-080 filter housing.

When to Replace

  • Visible Mesh Tearing: Any holes in the stainless steel allow debris to bypass the filter and clog the cleaner's drive system.
  • Reduced Cleaner Speed: A screen heavily clogged with calcium or fine silt restricts flow, causing the cleaner to move sluggishly or stop.
  • Calcification: If the mesh has become "petrified" with mineral deposits that cannot be rinsed off, water will not pass through efficiently.

Installation Tips

  • Directional Alignment: PRO TIP: The narrow end of the cone should point toward the pool cleaner side of the hose to effectively trap debris within the screen body.
  • Housing Inspection: Ensure the 48-080 clear housing is free of old mesh fragments before inserting the new 48-222 screen to maintain a watertight seal.
  • Routine Cleaning: Rinse the screen weekly by removing the filter nut; this prevents debris from being forced through the mesh by the high pressure of the booster pump.
