Unit price perEstimated delivery between November 01 and November 03.
The 3" Irrigation Pressure Filter - 155 Mesh / 100 micron is a irrigation filter for compatible professional horticultural irrigation systems.
The stated filtration grade is 155 mesh / 100 micron. Filtration helps protect drippers, sprinklers, foggers and valves from suspended debris that can reduce flow or cause blockage.
Key benefits
- Filtration grade: 155 mesh / 100 micron
- Stated connection/body size: 3"
- For nursery, greenhouse and horticultural water systems
- Colour identification: Yellow
Why irrigation filtration matters
Small emitter waterways are vulnerable to suspended particles. A correctly selected filter reduces the amount of debris reaching downstream equipment, helping maintain irrigation uniformity and reducing avoidable blockage.
The stated grade for this version is 155 mesh / 100 micron. Select filtration according to the water source and the requirements of the most restrictive downstream component.
Choosing filter grade
Mesh and micron figures describe filtration fineness in different ways. A finer filter is not automatically better if it creates excessive pressure loss or requires impractical cleaning frequency. Follow the irrigation-equipment requirements and account for water quality and expected flow.
Installation & pressure loss
Install the filter in the correct flow direction and orientation for the filter body. Allow access for inspection and cleaning. Pipework should be supported so its weight does not strain the filter connections.
As debris accumulates, pressure loss across the filter can increase. Monitor the system and clean the element before restriction begins to affect downstream irrigation performance.
Cleaning & maintenance
Depressurise the system before opening a filter housing. Remove the element carefully and clean it using a method appropriate to the element material and the contamination present. Inspect seals, screens and housing components before reassembly.
Replace damaged or permanently blocked elements rather than operating with compromised filtration.
Water quality & system management
Filtration is one part of irrigation maintenance. Source-water quality, line flushing, storage tanks and chemical or biological contamination can all influence system reliability. Maintain the complete water system rather than relying on the filter alone.

3" Irrigation Pressure Filter - 155 Mesh / 100 micron FAQs
What is the filter used for?
It helps remove suspended debris before water reaches downstream irrigation equipment such as drippers, sprinklers, foggers and valves.
How do I choose the right filtration grade?
Follow the requirements of the downstream irrigation equipment and consider water quality, flow demand and acceptable pressure loss.
Does a finer filter always improve the system?
No. Excessively fine filtration can increase pressure loss and cleaning frequency if it is not appropriate to the water source and equipment.
When should the filter be cleaned?
Inspect and clean it before accumulated debris causes unacceptable pressure loss or reduced downstream performance.
Should the system be depressurised before opening the filter?
Yes. Safely isolate and depressurise the system before opening a filter housing.
Can a damaged element be reused?
No. Replace damaged, distorted or persistently blocked filtration elements.
Does filtration remove the need to flush irrigation lines?
No. Filtration and line flushing perform different roles and both may be required as part of system maintenance.
How can I tell if the filter is restricting flow?
A growing pressure difference across the filter or reduced downstream performance can indicate that cleaning or inspection is required.
