Eminent Technology ET-2 Air Filter


I’m the original owner of an ET-2, which has served me faithfully since the 90s.  I have the original ET branded pump, but the air filter cartridge has turned black with dust.  My filter is clear plastic with a white paper cartridge, and it’s about the size of my thumb.  Any suggestions on getting a replacement?

Motor Guard D-12-2 is what I use.  They're much more substantial than the factory filter as they remove moisture, too.  The thread is 1/4" npt, so you'll just need to get some barbs from a hardware store to adapt it to your tubing.

There's no reason at all to see inside the filter.  It won't do anything for you.  A loss of pressure will indicate that it's time to change the filter.  If you don't have a gauge after the filter, you really should think about getting one.  If you don't want one for some reason, the filters are cheap enough to replace annually or whenever depending on how often the pump runs.  Installing a gauge and only replacing filters when pressure drops is most likely the more cost effective option, though, since they only cost a couple bucks.
