Changing from my 1" spinout filter to a 2" spinout? My supply is 3/4
What I am trying to accomplish is less filter cleanouts and longer high pressure
Thanks

As long as the screen size is the same the 2" should filter the same. But you may not have enough velocity to properly flush the filter. Just means you have to take out the screen and clean it by hand.

http://rusco.com/images/productos/especifications/Ruscobrochure.pdf graph seems to imply the screen must be significantly bigger on the 2 inch. Maximum operating pressure 150 PSI

http://www.lakos.com/_literature_224565/LS-904_TwistIIClean_Combo_Brochure has this table which shows the effective screen areas for the various sizes, in addition to the graph. Maximum operating pressure 100 PSI

That 2 inch model is pretty big with flanges instead of NPT connections. I guess you would need to find the flanges too.
