Product Description
The AquaMax AM-C-8414 is a premium 150-square-foot replacement filter cartridge engineered for maximum water clarity and long-cycle filtration. Designed as a direct heavy-duty alternative to the Jandy R0462300, Unicel C-8414, and Hayward CX1520RE, this cartridge is the heart of your pool's filtration system. It features high-density 4oz polyester media and a reinforced high-flow core to handle the demanding pressure of residential and commercial pumps.
Key Features
- Massive 150 Sq. Ft. Surface Area: Utilizing 174 deep pleats, this filter provides a massive surface area to trap fine debris, algae, and minerals, extending the time between cleanings.
- Precision Fit Gaskets: Features molded-in gaskets that ensure a 100% airtight seal against the Jandy CS150 internal manifolds, preventing "bypass" where dirty water escapes back into the pool.
- Maximum Flow Core: The center core is engineered with a "wide-open" pattern to reduce backpressure, which keeps your pump running cooler and lowers your monthly energy bill.
- Antimicrobial End Caps: The blue end caps are treated to resist the growth of bacteria and mold, preventing the "filter stink" common in older or lower-quality cartridges.
- Reemay® Filtration Media: High-quality thermally bonded polyester fibers trap particles as small as 20 microns while remaining easy to rinse clean with a standard garden hose.
Specifications
A massive, heavy-duty 200 sq. ft. cartridge engineered for high-flow Pentair Clean & Clear and Predator systems. Specifically designed to handle 2HP+ pumps in large residential pools, it traps ultra-fine particles down to 20 microns while maintaining maximum hydraulic efficiency.

⚠️ Critical Safety & System Warnings
- Spring Seating: Ensure the 31-inch cartridge sits perfectly on the bottom collector hub. If tilted, the heavy tank lid will crush the cartridge top during tightening.
- Air Bleed Check: Ensure the internal Air Bleed Tube is clear. A clogged tube causes air traps that make the cartridge bounce, leading to manifold cracks.
- Lube the Tank O-Ring: Every time you open the tank, lubricate the 154492 Tank O-Ring. Dry rings cause false pressure readings and difficult lid removal.
- Cleaning Interval: Clean every 2 weeks during peak season for pools 20,000+ gallons to maintain optimal flow and prevent pump motor overheating.
