This is the genuine Fluidra replacement manifold assembly designed specifically for the Atlas reinforced polyester sand filter with a 750 mm tank diameter. The manifold \u2014 the central hub and lateral collector arm system \u2014 sits at the base of the filter tank and is responsible for evenly distributing water through the sand bed during filtration and collecting filtered water for return to the pool. Replacing a damaged or broken manifold assembly restores full hydraulic performance and prevents sand bypass into the pool.<\/p>\n
This manifold assembly is a size-specific spare part engineered exclusively for the Fluidra Atlas sand filter range in the \u00d8750 mm diameter variant. The Atlas filter is a laminated, fibreglass-reinforced polyester filter available in multiple tank diameters (500, 600, 750 and 900 mm); always confirm your filter’s tank diameter before ordering, as manifold assemblies are not interchangeable between sizes. If your filter is a \u00d8900 mm Atlas, a separate manifold assembly part number applies.<\/p>\n
During normal filtration, pool water enters through the top diffuser, passes downward through the sand bed, and is collected by the manifold’s lateral arms at the base before being returned to the pool. During backwash, the flow is reversed: water travels up through the collector arms, lifts and flushes debris from the sand, and exits via the diffuser to waste. A fully intact manifold assembly is critical to both cycles \u2014 a cracked hub or broken lateral will allow unfiltered water or sand to bypass the media entirely.<\/p>\n
Genuine Fluidra parts are manufactured to the exact tolerances of the original Atlas filter tank, ensuring a secure fit with no gaps that could allow sand to pass into the pool return line. Third-party alternatives may differ in lateral arm length, hub diameter or material grade, compromising filtration efficiency and potentially voiding any remaining filter warranty. This part is supplied directly from Fluidra’s official spare parts catalogue, guaranteeing authenticity.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
