A code that reads almost identically to its neighbors, on a part that is not interchangeable with them.
Core 200S-RF sits between the Mini and the 300 in the Levoit Core line, and its listing reads almost word for word like theirs: genuine Levoit filter, AHAM Verifide, activated carbon. Only the number differs.
That similarity is the whole problem with shopping this range by description. Three cartridges described in the same words are three different physical parts, and the code is the only thing separating them on a search results page.
This catalog carries one third-party listing for this code, and it is kept below the genuine part rather than beside it. Its seller names the Core 200S and 200S-P. That is the seller speaking, not Levoit — and it is still no reason to reach for a cartridge named for a different Core number.

Genuine
Sold by the company that built the machine. The compatibility statement comes from the party who designed the airflow path.
Levoit Core 200S-RF Filter
The genuine cartridge for the Core 200S-P. The listing states AHAM Verifide status and activated carbon, the same wording used across the Core range, which is exactly why the number is the thing to read. A 200S-P and a 300-P are different machines with different cartridges and near-identical filter descriptions.
What the listing supports, and what it does not
The model code is stated in the listing and can be checked against the old part
Genuine Levoit rather than a seller-asserted compatible fit
AHAM Verifide status is stated
Activated carbon is stated as part of the assembly
Named for the Core 200S-P only, so nothing else in the Core line is covered
Single cartridge per order
Description reads almost identically to other Core filters, so the code has to carry the decision
Best forA Core 200S-P where the cartridge code has already been read off.
Fit is asserted by the seller, not by the appliance manufacturer. Read the named model list against the label on your own machine.
Cabiclean Core 200S Compatible Filter, 2-pack
2 per box
Third-party listing
A third-party cartridge, two per box, whose listing states compatibility with the Levoit Core 200S and 200S-P. Until this listing arrived the Core 200S-RF page carried only the genuine part; now it carries one third-party claim beside it. The claim comes from the seller. Read the two model names against the machine on the shelf, not against the Core family name.
What the listing supports, and what it does not
Two cartridges per order
The Core 200S and 200S-P are both named in the listing
Gives the Core 200S-RF page a second option when the genuine part is unavailable
The same seller also lists a Core Mini cartridge, so the range is consistent
Compatibility is stated by the seller, not by Levoit
Fit and material are not verified against the machine maker specification
A compatible cartridge can affect how the machine reports filter life
Best forA Core 200S or 200S-P where the seller compatibility statement has been read and accepted.
2 entries sit below, drawn from 1 genuine and 1 third-party listing for Core 200S-RF. Each one is here because a listing names it, and no numbering pattern has been read as a compatibility claim.

How to check your own
Open the machine and remove the cartridge — the code is on the plastic rim.
Read the full code including the S: Core 200S-RF and Core 300-RF are different parts.
Check the model label on the machine body against the machine the listing names.
If the printing on the old cartridge has worn away, the sticker inside the filter compartment usually repeats it.
When it gets changed
Follow the interval Levoit publishes for the Core 200S and the signal the machine itself gives. Running hours, not calendar months, are what actually load a cartridge, and a machine running continuously gets there sooner.
