Astral / Hurlcon ZX200 Cartridge Filter Element
🏷️ Brand
Astral (genuine) / Generic option available
📝 Description
The Astral 78099 is the genuine replacement cartridge element for Astral / Hurlcon ZX200 and XC200 cartridge filters, and also suits Zodiac ZCF200 and ZXC200 and Filtrite CF200 filters. It is 230 mm in diameter with a 75 mm centre hole.
This listing has two options. Astral / Fluidra is the genuine Astral element (78099). Generic is a replacement element (HU200Z) made to suit Hurlcon ZX200 filters, open at both ends.
A cartridge element wears out over time. When it no longer cleans up, the pleats are torn or flattened, or filter pressure stays high straight after cleaning, it is time for a new one.

💡 Before You Buy
-
Check your filter model. The model is on the label on the filter tank. The number after ZX or XC is the size, so a ZX200 needs a 200 element. A different size will not fit.
-
Measure your old element. Check the diameter and centre hole against the sizes above before ordering.
-
Different size filter? See the ZX100, ZX150 and ZX250 elements.
-
Lid leaking? The lid O-ring is sold separately: Astral ZX Cartridge Filter Lid O-Ring MK2 (78110).
