This is the genuine Fluidra collector assembly (underdrain lateral assembly) designed for the Fluidra Europe Filter with a \u00d81400 mm tank and 75 mm pipework, featuring a 1\u00bd” connection. Sitting at the base of the filter vessel, it collects filtered water through its slotted laterals and channels it cleanly back to the pool, while ensuring sand and debris remain trapped in the filter bed during both filtration and backwash cycles.<\/p>\n
During filtration, pool water passes downward through the sand bed and is captured by the slotted laterals of the collector assembly at the tank floor, allowing only water \u2014 not sand \u2014 to pass through and return to the pool. During backwashing, flow is reversed through the same laterals to lift and flush trapped debris to waste. A worn or cracked collector assembly can allow sand to bypass into the pool or reduce filtration efficiency, making timely replacement essential.<\/p>\n
This collector assembly is specified as a direct spare part for the Fluidra Europe Filter \u00d81400-75MM, 1.0 m bed depth, rated to 2.5 kg\/cm\u00b2 (2.5 bar). The Europe Filter range is a polyester and fibreglass commercial-grade filter series, totally corrosion-resistant and suitable for salt water installations. Always verify your filter’s tank diameter, pipe diameter, and connection size before ordering to ensure correct fitment.<\/p>\n
As a genuine Fluidra OEM part, this collector assembly is manufactured to the exact dimensions and tolerances of the original, ensuring a perfect seal and correct lateral spacing within the \u00d81400 mm vessel. Aftermarket equivalents may differ in lateral slot width or hub geometry, risking sand bypass or poor backwash performance. Fitting the correct OEM part protects your filter investment and maintains your system’s pressure rating.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
