Fit note
This kit converts a Sta-Rite System 3 S8M150 or S8M500 to take four Excel Filters XLS-895 cartridges. It is not a drop-in OEM cartridge.
Before you buy: System 3® retrofit fitment check
- Housing model — confirm the tank label: S7M120 / S7M400 or S8M150 / S8M500.
- Installed conversion-kit version — retrofit cartridges match the conversion kit that is installed, not the tank family alone. Check which kit (and version) is in the tank now.
- Cartridge count — verify how many elements your kit takes before ordering.
