The Maxitrol KIT-GF60 Replacement Filter is a critical maintenance component engineered to protect downstream gas pressure regulators and automatic shut-off valves from particulate contamination. Designed specifically for the Maxitrol GF60 series, this kit ensures the integrity of your fuel line by capturing dust, dirt, and debris as small as 50 microns. For technicians servicing residential or light commercial gas-fired gear, maintaining a clean filter insert is essential to prevent regulator diaphragm damage and erratic combustion performance. This genuine OEM gas filter kit includes the high-capacity polypropylene fleece replacement filter with O-ring and necessary hardware to restore factory-spec flow and sealing. Frequent inspections are recommended, especially in new installations where pipe scale is common, to mitigate excessive pressure drop across the ¾-inch or 1-inch NPT filter housing. By utilizing this OEM replacement part, you maintain compliance with DIN 3386 standards and ensure the Maxitrol gas filter continues to safeguard sensitive burner components from clogging. Key Benefits Technical Precision: Effectively separates solid contaminants exceeding 50 ?m to protect sensitive gas control systems. Universal Fuel Compatibility: Rated for use with natural gas, LP gases, air, and mixed gas families 1, 2, and 3. Field-Ready Kit: Includes the polypropylene fleece filter and a specialized O-ring for a drop-in GF60 series seal. Optimized Flow: High-surface-area matting minimizes pressure drop while maximizing dust acquisition capacity. Durable Construction: Designed to withstand up to 15 PSI (1 bar) inlet pressure and temperatures up to 175°F. Common Questions When should the GF60 filter be replaced? Maintenance frequency depends on gas quality and operating pressure. It is standard practice to replace the filter insert whenever the pressure drop exceeds 1 kPa (10 mbar) or during annual HVACR system inspections. Is the O-ring included in the KIT-GF60? Yes, this service kit includes a new O-ring. Technicians should always replace the elastomer seal when opening the cast aluminum housing to prevent potential gas leaks. Does this filter work with the GF40 or GF80 models? No, the KIT-GF60 is sized specifically for GF60 series housings (typically 3/4" and 1" NPT). For larger or smaller bodies, use the specific KIT-GF40 or KIT-GF80 equivalent. Disclaimer: While we strive for 100% accuracy, product data and specifications are subject to change.
