Parker-Watts EK602 Filter Element Kit, 40 Micron, F602 General Purpose Air Filter
The EK602 series is the factory replacement element kit for Parker-Watts F602 general purpose compressed air filters. Each kit contains one 40 micron polypropylene filter element plus the matching bowl O-ring, so a routine element change does not turn into a leak hunt. Three kits cover the entire F602 line from 1/4 in. through 2-1/2 in. ports.
Key specifications
- Micron rating: 40 micron, the standard F602 element grade
- Media: Polypropylene
- Kit contents: One filter element and one bowl O-ring
- Filter type: Particulate and bulk water removal
- Fits: Parker-Watts F602 general purpose filters, 1/4 in. to 2-1/2 in. NPT or BSPP

Which kit do I need
- EK602Y: F602-02 and F602-03 bodies, 1/4 in. and 3/8 in. ports
- EK602B: F602-06, F602-08, F602-10 and F602-12 bodies, 3/4 in. through 1-1/2 in. ports
- EK602G: F602-16 and F602-20 bodies, 2 in. and 2-1/2 in. ports
The 1/2 in. body (F602-04) uses the EK602A kit, which is a separate part number. A 5 micron option exists across the range under the V-suffix numbers (EK602VY, EK602VA, EK602VB).
Host filter ratings
- Polycarbonate bowl: 150 PSIG max, 40 to 125 degrees F
- Metal bowl: 250 PSIG max, 40 to 150 degrees F
- Aluminum bowl: 300 PSIG max, 40 to 150 degrees F
Applications
F602 filters sit at the head of most shop and plant air drops, protecting regulators, lubricators, air tools, cylinders, valves and paint equipment from pipe scale, rust and bulk condensate. Replacing the element on a schedule is the cheapest pressure drop you will ever buy back: a loaded 40 micron element can cost several PSI across the filter before anything looks wrong at the gauge.
Keep a spare EK602 kit on the shelf for every F602 filter in the plant. These are genuine Parker-Watts service kits, not an aftermarket equivalent, so element height, outside diameter and O-ring cross section all seat exactly the way the original did.
