Excel Filters makes direct-fit replacement elements for Pentair® / PacFab Predator single-cartridge filters — Predator 75, 100, 125, 150, and 200. The Predator uses the same elements as the round Pentair Clean & Clear line, so match your size or the Unicel C-94-series number on your cartridge for OEM-spec fit.
Predator filters are single-cartridge tanks. The elements are shared with the round Pentair Clean & Clear (CC) and Sta-Rite Posi-Clear PXCRP sizes.

XLS-903 has 101 sq ft of filter media per cartridge. Its listed physical compatibility with Predator 125 and Clean & Clear CC125 is retained, but it has less filtration area than those applications. XLS-931 is the separate 126 sq ft cartridge for those 125 sq ft applications. Physical fit does not make the filtration areas equal.
Yes — the Pentair Predator and the round Pentair Clean & Clear (CC) share the same single-cartridge elements by size (Predator 75 = CC75, and so on). Either name on your tank leads to the same Excel replacement.
The size is on the tank label (75, 100, 125, 150, or 200). If it is missing, read the Unicel C-94-series number on the cartridge end cap and match it in the chart above.
No. Excel Filters cartridges are aftermarket replacements manufactured in the USA to OEM dimensions. They are not affiliated with or endorsed by Pentair.
