Pentair 160301: Identifying the Clean & Clear Plus 420 Filter

Pentair 160301 identifies the Clean & Clear Plus CCP420 cartridge filter, not a pump component or motor repair kit. Establishing that distinction prevents buying the wrong equipment when a search result or parts listing is unclear.

What the number identifies

Pentair’s specifications list item 160301 as model CCP420 with 420 square feet of filter area. A complete filter assembly and replacement cartridge elements are different purchases. Use the label and parts diagram for the installed filter before ordering either.

Information to collect

• A readable photo of the filter’s model and serial label.
• The clamp style and the manual that matches that generation.
• The cartridge part number already installed, if it can be inspected safely.
• The symptom, clean starting pressure and pump speed when measured.

Pressure Safety Comes First

Before opening any filter, turn the pump off, prevent automatic restart and follow that filter’s pressure-release procedure. Never loosen a clamp or lid while pressurized. If the clamp, tank or relief valve is damaged, stop and seek qualified service. Use the correct manual for the clamp style and generation.

Pentair’s Clean & Clear Plus safety resources explain its model-specific servicing precautions. Record a clean starting pressure at a consistent pump speed, and follow the applicable cleaning criteria rather than a universal calendar interval.
