High-Quality Finish and Large Filtering Surface
The Aster Series filter utilize a center hub with eight to twelve 1" laterals ( depending on tank diameter) made from injection molded glass filled polypropylene. The hub incorporates a slotted bottom to allow for water circulation under the collection assembly providing complete fluidization of the filter bed during backwash. The eight to twelve 360° slotted laterals provide a collection assembly design that provides open area far greater than any competing product available today.
The Aster Series filter comes standard with a unique patented tool-less lid system. The tool-less lid system is made from commercial grade quality material that is designed to last. The injection molded lid compress an O-Ring against the injection molded collar creating a reliable water tight seal.
