Fluidra - Sand Filter Manifold Lateral Arm 1½" 260 mm (Pack of 2)

Fluidra – Sand Filter Manifold Lateral Arm 1½” 260 mm (Pack of 2)

This genuine Fluidra manifold lateral arm is a direct replacement for the internal collection assembly of the Fluidra Europe Filter Ø1400 commercial sand filter. Measuring 260 mm in length with a 1½” connection, it attaches radially to the central manifold hub at the base of the filter tank, collecting filtered water while retaining sand media. This listing supplies two arms per pack, as required for a balanced manifold assembly.

Compatibility

Designed specifically for the Fluidra Europe Filter Ø1400 (75 mm port, 1.0 m filter bed, 2.5 kg/cm² rated) — a large-capacity commercial polyester and fibreglass sand filter used in public pools, hotels, and water parks. Always verify your filter model and manifold configuration before ordering, as arm length and connection size vary between filter sizes.

Why Genuine Matters

Genuine Fluidra lateral arms are manufactured to exact dimensional tolerances, ensuring a secure, leak-free fit in the central hub and uniform water distribution across the filter bed. Non-genuine substitutes can allow sand bypass or uneven flow, reducing filtration quality and shortening the service life of your filter media.

Installation

Each arm slots or threads into the central manifold hub at the bottom of the filter tank. The tank must be drained and the filter media removed before access is possible. It is recommended that a qualified pool technician carries out the replacement to ensure correct reassembly and a pressure-safe seal.
