A tank, a media bed, and a valve with six or seven positions · review
The only system here that publishes its tank diameter — 450 mm — with flow given in litres per minute and in US gallons per minute, and a drain plug for winter.
The bottom line The one that describes the filter rather than the pump. A 450 mm tank is the bed area everything else depends on, and publishing it is more useful than another litres-per-hour headline. Then the listing declines to say how much sand goes in it, what the pump draws or what hose it takes — three rows empty on a system whose one distinguishing figure is excellent.
A sand filter with a 450 mm tank, circulating up to 151.4 l/min (40 GPM). The tank is a corrosion-resistant polymer described as rust-resistant and impact-resistant. A seven-way multiport valve offers filtering, backwashing, rinsing, circulating, draining, winter and closed.
A drain plug is fitted, stated to slow water flow to help prevent freezing and to ease winter maintenance. The system is stated suitable for above-ground and in-ground pools, garden pools, indoor pools and hotel pools.
450 mm.
Bed area is what decides whether a flow is filtration or just movement. A given litres-per-hour through a wide bed passes slowly enough for the medium to catch something; through a narrow one it does not.
Eight systems in this family publish a flow and no diameter. This one publishes a diameter, and it is the more informative of the two.
The media charge. A sand filter arrives empty, the medium is a separate purchase, and the weight the tank takes is the number that purchase is made against.
This listing does not state it. The page leaves the row empty and says so, because a charge estimated from a diameter would be our arithmetic wearing the maker’s typeface.
The rest of this shelf quotes litres per hour. This one quotes litres per minute and US gallons per minute, and neither is converted here.
Converting takes a second and produces a number indistinguishable from a published one. The hub prints the figures side by side in their own units so the comparison is the reader’s to make.
The German, French, Italian and Spanish Amazon stores sat between 144 € and 156 € at the single check this page is built on.
The American Amazon store stocks it as well, in local currency, which the euro range above deliberately leaves aside.
The British Amazon catalogue holds the reference with no seller standing behind it.

Because it sets the bed area, and bed area is what decides how fast water can pass the medium and still be filtered. Flow rate describes the pump; diameter describes the filter. This is the only listing in this family that gives it.
Not published. That is the one figure a sand filter cannot usefully omit, because the media is a separate purchase and the charge has to be bought before the system does anything. The page records the absence rather than estimating from the diameter.
The arithmetic is simple and the page does not do it. A converted figure is our figure in the maker’s typeface, and this site prints what each maker published in the unit they published it in. The two are quoted side by side on the hub so the comparison is visible.

10 200 l/h, 400 W, 20 l tank, 60–65 dB(A)/m
The only filter system on this shelf that publishes a noise level with a distance — 60 to 65 dB(A) at one metre — alongside 10 200 l/h from a 400 W pump and 800 g of filter balls.
Best for: A system sited near a terrace, where the decibel figure is the deciding one
6 056 l/h pump, 4 920 l/h through-flow, 38.5 cm tank, 36 kg sand
The listing that states its media requirement in full — 36 kg of #20 quartz sand or 1 000 g of filter balls, neither included — alongside two flow figures, a 38.5 cm tank and both hoses in the box.
Best for: A first sand system, where knowing exactly what else to order is worth more than a headline flow
9 000 l/h, 7.5 m head, 250 W, 7-way, 32/38 adapter
A 250 W system publishing both ends of its curve — 9 000 l/h and a maximum head of 7.5 m — with a seven-position valve, a pressure gauge, IPX5 and adapters for both hose sizes.
Best for: A mid-sized pool where knowing the head before ordering matters
