Pentair Triton® and Tagelus® Sand filters
Triton® and Tagelus®, the filters that may outlive your pool…
The original and still the industry standard. Sand filters are one of the most popular ways to filter
water. They are simple, effective and require very little attention. Pool water is routed through a
sand-filled pressure vessel. The sand traps particles large and small… so small they are undetectable to
the human eye. But not all sand filters are created equal.
Triton® is the result of over 40 years of production evolution and refinement. It has set the industry
standard for effectiveness, efficiency, long service intervals and for providing years of dependable, low
maintenance operation.
Tagelus® provides consistent, high performance cleaning of each litre of water that passes through it.
The key is a combination of design features which eliminate "channelling", a condition that allows the
dirty water to race through the filter too quickly for effective cleaning.
