COMPATIBILITY & APPLICATIONS
Designed For Fleck 5812 Filter Valves
This piston assembly is engineered exclusively for Fleck 5812 filter control valves operating in standard filter mode. The yellow dot marking distinguishes it from upflow (61960-02, blue dot) and downflow (61960-01, white dot) configurations. Use this kit when rebuilding or servicing 5812 valves in whole-house filter systems, commercial sediment applications, or any installation where the valve cycles in filter service mode. Not interchangeable with softener or upflow/downflow variants.
💧 Always verify the dot color on your existing piston before ordering. Installing the wrong configuration can cause improper valve cycling and loss of backwash efficiency.
