Default Rusco Spin Down Filter - screen

Can a Rusco Spin Down Filter trap 5 micron size silt ?
Do you sell the screen for this?

Default Re: Rusco Spin Down Filter - screen

The smallest screen size is a 15micron, and it doesn't work well with heavy silt, because it tends to clog the screen and therefore require frequent purging. For silt you will be better off with either a tank style auto backwashing sediment filter, or large Big Blue 20" x 4.5" cartridges.

Thank you,
