Generalaire 1A-30 Fuel Oil Filter Cartridge 10 Micron

Product Description

The GENERALAIRE 1A-30 is a replacement filter cartridge designed for fuel oil filtration systems. Rated at 10 gallons per hour (GPH) with a 10-micron filtration rating, it captures fine particulates that can foul oil burner nozzles and damage downstream components. The media is constructed from wool felt, a proven material for fuel oil service. A bonded center core prevents media migration, keeping filter material from breaking apart and traveling into the fuel line. This cartridge is installed by HVAC oil burner technicians as part of routine fuel system maintenance.

This cartridge is used in residential and light-commercial fuel oil systems where an inline filter protects the oil burner assembly. It fits directly into the GENERALAIRE 77B, 1A-25B, and 1A-25A filter housings, making it a straightforward service item during annual oil burner tune-ups. Replacing the cartridge at regular service intervals helps maintain proper fuel flow and protects nozzles, pumps, and controls from sediment and water contamination common in fuel oil storage tanks.
