This genuine AstralPool manifold arm assembly is the complete set of lateral collector arms designed for AstralPool sand filters with a 600 mm tank diameter. Mounted at the base of the filter vessel, the arms distribute water flow evenly across the entire filter bed, preventing channelling and ensuring full use of the filtration media for consistently clean pool water. It is the correct OEM replacement when one or more lateral arms are cracked, blocked, or broken.<\/p>\n
This assembly is engineered specifically for AstralPool \u00d8600 mm (D.600) sand filters, including models in the Aster and Vesubio ranges. Always verify your filter’s tank diameter and model reference before ordering, as manifold assemblies are not interchangeable between different tank diameters.<\/p>\n
The kit comprises 8 individual manifold lateral arms that together form the complete collector assembly. The arms connect to the central standpipe inside the filter tank and are compatible with sand, glass bead, and multigrain filter media.<\/p>\n
Using a genuine AstralPool part ensures correct fit, the right slot dimensions for effective media retention, and materials rated for continuous contact with pool water and backwash pressure. Aftermarket arms may vary in slot size or thread pitch, risking media bypass into the pool or premature failure.<\/p>\n
