Fluidra - Diffuser Assembly for Ø1200 mm Side-Outlet Sand Filter

Fluidra – Diffuser Assembly for Ø1200 mm Side-Outlet Sand Filter

This genuine Fluidra diffuser assembly is the OEM replacement part designed for the Ø1200 mm side-outlet sand filter rated at 56,000 l/h. The diffuser sits inside the filter tank and evenly distributes incoming water across the sand bed, ensuring consistent filtration performance and preventing channelling through the filter media. As a complete assembly, it provides everything needed to restore the internal water-distribution system to factory specification.

Compatibility

This diffuser assembly is engineered specifically for Fluidra’s Ø1200 mm large-format sand filter with a side (lateral) outlet connection and a rated flow of 56,000 l/h. It is not interchangeable with top-outlet variants or smaller-diameter filter models. Always cross-reference your filter’s model number and tank diameter before ordering to confirm fitment.

Why Genuine Matters

Using an authentic Fluidra OEM part guarantees dimensional accuracy, material compatibility, and a precise fit within the filter housing. Genuine components are manufactured to the same tolerances as the original, preserving the filter’s rated flow rate and operating pressure and protecting any remaining product warranty. Aftermarket alternatives may not replicate the exact geometry required for uniform water distribution across a 1200 mm tank diameter.

Installation

Installation requires draining and opening the filter tank to access the internal components. The diffuser assembly should be carefully aligned with the central standpipe and secured according to Fluidra’s service documentation for this filter series. Given the size and complexity of a Ø1200 mm commercial filter, installation by a qualified pool technician is strongly recommended to ensure correct reassembly and a leak-free return to service.
