The Unicel C-7698 Pool Filter Cartridge is a high-quality single-element replacement designed to restore proper filtration performance in compatible pool filter systems.

Built for Durability and Performance
Unicel cartridges are manufactured with uniform pleat spacing to maximize usable filtration area. This design prevents premature clogging and allows water to flow evenly through the media, improving efficiency and extending cleaning intervals.
Reinforced end caps and a rigid center core help the cartridge maintain its shape under operating pressure, ensuring dependable performance throughout its service life.
Proper Fit for Optimal System Operation
The C-7698 is produced to exact dimensional tolerances to ensure a secure seal inside compatible filter housings. A correct fit prevents internal bypass, uneven debris loading, and loss of filtration efficiency.
Always confirm filter model compatibility and cartridge dimensions before installation.
