What it is

The Sentinel Vortex 300 is a compact magnetic filter for central heating systems, designed to capture system debris such as magnetite and sludge using a powerful magnet. It is installed on the return pipework to protect the boiler and radiators from blockages, helping to maintain heating efficiency. This is the 22mm direct fit Mark 2 version, supplied with a GB plaque, and the direct fit design allows for straightforward replacement of existing units.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Reduced heating performance: radiators may take longer to warm up or remain cold at the bottom, indicating restricted flow.
  • Visible leaks: water may be seen around the filter body or connections, which can lead to pressure loss.
  • Filter not collecting debris: after cleaning, the filter may show little or no debris capture, suggesting the magnet is no longer effective.
  • Noisy operation: the filter may vibrate or make unusual noises during operation, which can indicate internal damage.
  • Corrosion or damage: rust or physical damage to the filter housing may be visible, risking leaks.

Before you order

  • Confirm the part number SENTINELVORTEX300 matches your existing filter to ensure correct replacement.
  • Check that the 22mm connection is compatible with your pipework and that you have the necessary fittings.
  • If replacing an existing filter, note the orientation and connections before removal to ease installation.
