Parker FP736-30 Pleated Cartridge Filter 30 Micron 36 Inch

Product Description

The PARKER FP736-30 is a pleated resin bonded cartridge filter designed for plumbing and industrial liquid filtration applications. Constructed from resin cellulose media, it delivers 30-micron filtration across its full 36-inch length. The pleated design increases available filter surface area compared to standard wound cartridges, supporting longer service intervals between changeouts. Rated for a maximum working temperature of 250 degrees F, the FP736-30 handles hot water and process fluid systems where thermal tolerance is required. Plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians typically specify this cartridge where medium-level particulate removal is needed in high-volume flow housings.

The FP736-30 fits large-diameter filter housings commonly found in commercial plumbing systems, light industrial process lines, and point-of-entry water treatment installations. Its 6.25-inch outside diameter and 36-inch body length make it suitable for high-flow applications where a standard 10-inch or 20-inch cartridge would not provide adequate capacity. The 30-micron rating targets sediment, rust particles, and suspended solids at medium-coarse filtration levels, protecting downstream equipment such as valves, heat exchangers, and process instrumentation.

Key Features

• Pleated resin bonded construction maximizes effective filter media surface area
• 30-micron rating removes medium-coarse particulates from liquid streams
• 36-inch length suits high-capacity commercial and industrial filter housings
• 6.25-inch outside diameter fits large-format housing configurations
• Resin cellulose media rated to 250 degrees F for hot water and elevated-temperature process service
• Weighs 22 pounds — sized for permanent or semi-permanent housing installations, not portable filter systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement cartridge for large-format commercial plumbing and industrial liquid filtration housings accepting a 6.25-inch OD, 36-inch length cartridge body.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified industrial maintenance technicians. Shut off the upstream supply valve and relieve system pressure fully before opening the filter housing. Inspect the housing sump, o-ring, and end caps for wear or damage before seating the new cartridge. After reassembly, slowly restore pressure and check for leaks at the housing connections before returning the system to service.
