NT150-100, Rusco Fltr,1-1/2x100 50 gpm, 1-1/2-100-F

Step up to higher flow with the Rusco NT150-100, a 1-1/2-inch spin-down sediment separator rated for up to 50 GPM. This larger-bore filter is designed for whole-house systems, larger residences, and light commercial supplies where smaller filters would create a bottleneck. Fitted with a 100-mesh screen, it captures fine sand, silt, and sediment before that debris can reach your fixtures, appliances, and treatment equipment, all while maintaining the strong, steady flow that a busy household demands. The combination of a wide 1-1/2-inch bore and a fine screen is unusual, and it makes this model a standout for homes that need thorough sediment removal without giving up pressure.

Applications

The NT150-100 shines in well-water installations and high-demand homes where consistent pressure matters. By placing it at the point of entry, you shield your water softener, carbon filter, UV disinfection unit, and reverse-osmosis membranes from abrasive particulates that cause premature wear and clogging. It is also a practical choice for irrigation, agricultural water, and pre-filtration ahead of pumps, where sand and grit can quickly score impellers and erode seals. Sizing the separator generously, as this model does, means it can keep up even when several fixtures or zones draw water at once without the pressure sag that plagues undersized filters.

• 1-1/2-inch connections support up to 50 GPM of flow
• 100-mesh element traps fine sediment, sand, and grit
• Transparent housing lets you see when a flush is needed
• Manual flush valve clears trapped debris in seconds
• Reusable screen means no recurring cartridge replacement
• Ideal as pre-treatment for softeners, RO, and UV systems

Spin-down technology gives this Rusco filter a major advantage over disposable cartridge units: a centrifugal action drives heavier particles to the sump for easy purging, so maintenance is quick and inexpensive. There is no cartridge to stock, no wrench-wrestling a clogged housing open, and no surprise pressure drop from a neglected element. A quick flush every week or two in sediment-heavy water keeps it running clean, and you can dial in the schedule based on what you see in the clear chamber rather than a fixed calendar. With its generous 50 GPM capacity and durable construction, the NT150-100 keeps water flowing freely while protecting everything downstream, and it makes a dependable anchor for a multi-stage whole-house filtration setup serving a larger home or property.
