The 0295565 inlet filter with 16 mesh screen is a primary filtration component installed at the fluid intake of compatible airless sprayers. Its 16 mesh rating indicates approximately 16 openings per linear inch, providing effective filtration for common coatings while allowing adequate flow. This filter is compatible with SprayTech Airless EPX2355, EPX2305, EPX2255, EPX2155, EP2205, EP2105; SprayTech Airless Advantage EPX2155; SprayTech AirCoat; SprayTech AirCoat NEW; and RentSpray 400 models. The filter traps debris, dried paint particles, and other contaminants that could otherwise enter the pump and cause damage to valves, seals, and pistons. A clean inlet filter ensures the pump can draw material efficiently, reducing the risk of cavitation and pressure drop. Over time, filters can become clogged with debris, leading to restricted flow, difficulty priming, and reduced spray performance. Symptoms of a clogged filter include the pump running but not building pressure, spitting, or surging. The filter screen can also become torn or damaged, allowing contaminants to bypass the filter. Regular inspection and replacement of the inlet filter is a simple but critical maintenance task. Replacing a worn or clogged filter with this genuine part restores proper fluid intake and protects the pump from abrasive damage. The 16 mesh size is suitable for a wide range of paints, stains, and coatings commonly used with these sprayers.
