AstralPool XC Cartridge Filter

The AstralPool XC cartridge filter is made with 20% glass filled polypropylene in a one-piece injection-moulded body and lid. The lock ring is made from 30% glass filled nylon.

This makes the AstralPool XC significantly stronger and less prone to splitting than other cartridge filters that are made from ABS plastic and glued together.

The lid locking mechanism has been designed to be removed in one-piece without the need for tools with large handles and less threading.

Spring-loaded locking tab that makes an audible-click when the locking ring is sufficiently tightened and prevents over-tightening.

The air bleed valve is over-sized for durability and to allow for easy maintenance.

There is a large-drain port should water need to be drained from the tank.

The AstralPool XC cartridge filter features internal water diverters that allow cyclonic water flow, allowing for more efficient water flow across the filter element and in turn, better filtration and a reduction in clogging.

The AstralPool XC cartridge filter was engineered and tested up to 400kPa (1.5x operating pressure) for up to 100,000 cycles.

The choice of two inlets allows the AstralPool XC cartridge filter to be installed in tight spaces.

It takes just 100 litres* of water annually to clean a XC filter element, instead of backwashing thousands of litres to clean a traditional sand media filter, making it easier than ever to be more responsible with water.

*Based on an average time of 1.5 minutes to clean the cartridge with a standard household yard hose.
