This is the genuine Fluidra replacement pressure gauge for the Aster laminated sand filter range. Fitted with a standard 1\/8″ BSP male thread and a 0\u20136 kg\/cm\u00b2 scale, it gives pool owners and technicians an accurate, at-a-glance reading of filter operating pressure \u2014 the primary indicator for when a backwash cycle is needed.<\/p>\n
This gauge is the factory-specified spare part for Fluidra Aster sand filters (4 bar series). It is also compatible with Fluidra Delta (\u00d8650\u20131200 mm) and Norma (\u00d81000\u20131200 mm) laminated sand filters that share the same 1\/8″ gauge port. Always cross-reference your filter model before ordering.<\/p>\n
A worn or inaccurate pressure gauge leads to missed backwash cycles, reduced filtration efficiency, and unnecessary strain on the pump. The genuine Fluidra part is calibrated to the Aster filter’s maximum working pressure of 2.5 kg\/cm\u00b2 operating range, ensuring reliable readings throughout the filter’s service life. Third-party gauges may use non-standard fittings or offer lower accuracy.<\/p>\n
The 1\/8″ BSP thread screws directly into the existing gauge port on the filter head or multiport valve body \u2014 no adapters required for compatible models. Apply PTFE tape to the thread before fitting and hand-tighten, then snug with a spanner. Check for leaks when the system is first re-pressurised. No specialist tools are needed, though those unfamiliar with pressurised pool systems should consult a qualified technician.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
