Campbell FT6-250 Spin-down Sediment Filter 1-1/2 Slip

Product Description

The CAMPBELL FT6-250 is a spin-down sediment filter designed for residential and light commercial water supply systems. It uses a 1-1/2 inch slip connection and a spin-down bowl design that allows sediment to be flushed from the filter body without fully disassembling the unit. This style of filter is a common first-stage component in whole-house filtration setups, installed ahead of pressure tanks, water softeners, and other treatment equipment. Plumbers and water treatment technicians install this type of filter at the point of entry to protect downstream components from particulate contamination.

The FT6-250 is suited for point-of-entry installations where a 1-1/2 inch slip-style connection is required. The spin-down configuration makes it a practical choice for applications where sediment loads are moderate and routine maintenance access is a priority. It fits inline on the main supply line and is typically installed in conjunction with other filtration or conditioning equipment to extend the service life of downstream components.

Key Features

• 1-1/2 inch slip connection for direct solvent-weld installation into PVC piping
• Spin-down bowl design allows sediment purging without full disassembly
• Point-of-entry configuration protects downstream water treatment equipment
• Compact, inline form factor suitable for residential and light commercial supply lines

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install spin-down sediment filter for 1-1/2 inch slip-connection water supply piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber following applicable IPC guidelines. Shut off the main water supply and relieve system pressure before cutting into the supply line. Use appropriate PVC primer and solvent cement for slip connections, and observe manufacturer cure times before restoring pressure. Do not overtighten the filter bowl during reassembly, as spin-down housings are designed for hand-tight service access.
