This is the genuine Fluidra collector assembly designed specifically for the AstralPool Vigo Pro Max sand filter with a \u00d8750 mm tank and 2″ connections. Positioned at the base of the filter vessel, the collector distributes water evenly across the sand bed during filtration and ensures a balanced, thorough backwash cycle. It is an essential internal component for maintaining efficient, reliable filter performance.<\/p>\n
This collector assembly is a direct OEM replacement part for the Fluidra AstralPool Vigo Pro Max \u00d8750 mm \u2013 2″ laminated sand filter (ref. 77146-0100). It is not interchangeable with smaller Vigo Pro Max models (\u00d8500 or \u00d8600) or other filter ranges. Always verify your filter’s tank diameter and connection size before ordering.<\/p>\n
The Vigo Pro Max collector system uses precision-engineered 1″ lateral tubes matched exactly to the \u00d8750 tank geometry, ensuring uniform flow distribution across the entire sand bed. A worn or damaged collector causes uneven filtration, channelling, and poor backwash efficiency. Using a genuine Fluidra part guarantees the correct fit, material grade, and long-term durability that aftermarket alternatives cannot reliably match.<\/p>\n
Replacing the collector assembly requires draining the filter tank and removing the sand load to access the internal components. The assembly is designed for straightforward removal and refitting. Professional installation by a qualified pool technician is recommended to ensure correct seating and to avoid damage to the filter vessel or connections.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
