I would think so it is a 4.5" x 10" fliter cartridge just like the DGD-5005.

The 6300 has an extra level of filtration. I just can't spell out the details for you. Just read the product description for each model and it should be clear. Good luck....Marie Cappola

It depends on the filtration level you are looking for. The smaller the micron number the cleaner the water will be. The tradeoff is if your water has more sediment then the filter will clog up faster. Or if you only need to remove sediment then perhaps the larger micron filter will do. I use a 1 micron filter since I want to remove as much as possible.

i did purchase the replacement pack and it was perfect. Dont have all the particulars on my filter at hand, but recall it was a 4800 series and it is a DE filter. Took about 45 minutes to put the thing together and works well.

I use the Culligan P5-D Level 4 5 Micron Sediment Filtration - 2 Pack Replacement Cartridges

Both are rated for the same particulate filtration (0.2 microns?) and claim to filter the same amount of water (up to 13k gallons if I remember correctly). I have had my hands on both and I can say I'm glad I purchased the combi. The down side is the warranty is not as long. Oh and the combi has held up well in a pack, use on the trail, or camping.

Many filter systems use the FLeck valve, so it may have a fleck valve on it. If it looks similar to the picture, you are probably fine. The points to check, make sure you are ordering the correct valve, either a filter only, or a water softener type. Then make sure you have the threaded 2.5" opening for the valve to screw into the tank, and a 1" riser tube to fit into the pilot opening.MarkAFW Filters785-735-9769

I have used the 40043 for several years then bought the 40042 four pack this year. The only difference that I can tell is that the 40043 comes with a flexible hose, and I have several, so I use them with these filters. There is no difference in the quality of the water that I can tell! The 4 pack is a great buy.

I bought the WRONG Marina replacement cartridge and it did not fit. However, the aquarium shop then sold me a big sheet of carbon filter material and said I could just cut it to size and use it in place of the filter. A lot cheaper and it's been working well.

I use this unit currently. I can't believe people pay way more than this for units that simply do the same thing. Anyways, I have only replaced two of the filters so far: Coralife 05700 PureFlo 1 Micron Sediment Filter Cartridge and Coralife 05702 Pure Flo II R/O Carbon Block Cartridge. Once you search and find those filters, finding the De-Ionizing filter will be simple. As you face the front of the unit (as depicted on the box) the order is - left to right - 1 micron prefilter, carbon filter, and finally, de-ionizing filter. Easy! Good luck.

Hey Tim my pool is 26x18 33,000 GL. The C1200 is overkill for my pool but that's not a bad thing. I went from an old Hayward S200 sand filter to the C1200. Right off the bat I could tell the motor wasn't straining to push the water through the cartridge verses the sand. I think bigger is better in this aspect. I would recommend this filter to anyone.

I'm not sure, we have the big blue filter, it has 3 housings, one is micron, another husk, and a sediment. I bought it from Amazon, look at the web site for that filter and check out the sizing.

I think the one I got was the 20-50. Too red for my diving (so calif). I ordered the light magenta filter for "green" water. It works fine. Otherwise this is by far the best filter I have tried. I have tried and lost just about every other one on the market.

I plan to try this site next purchase but you can also ask foster and smith website for other options I have used. http://spectrapure.com/AQUARIUM/SEDIMENT-CARBON-FILTERS-DI-CARTRIDGES-RESINThe order left to right is sediment filter, carbon, then the DI cartridge.

All I know is Kinetico in southern MN put a blue 20 inch prefilter on my water line and the filters they sold me had no id on them. I bought these as they were same size. They work well, but must change them more often as they filter out more stuff. They seem to be a better filter and cost much less.

Purenex FT-1. When I bought this I got the Matrikx Pb1 filter cartridge and it fit perfectly. This one has the same number but is smaller in diameter and is not working.
