A tank, a media bed, and a valve with six or seven positions · review
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.
The bottom line The best-documented mid-priced system here. Both ends of the flow curve, both hose sizes with an adapter, seven named valve positions and an IP rating is more than anything at this price publishes. The 10 kg tank is genuinely small for a system rated at 60 m³ of pool, and that mismatch is the figure to weigh.
A 250 W sand filter pump delivering up to 9 000 l/h (9.0 m³/h) with a maximum head of 7.5 m, stated suitable for pools to 60 m³. The tank is a reinforced thermoplastic holding a maximum of 10 kg of sand, and 200 g of filter balls are supplied.
The seven-way valve offers filtering, backwashing, rinsing, draining, circulating, closed and winter. An integrated pressure gauge shows the operating pressure. The rating is IPX5. Connections are Ø 32/38 mm (1¼″/1½″) with a 2-in-1 adapter.
9 000 l/h and 7.5 m of head.
The first is measured with nothing attached; the second is where the flow reaches zero. An installation with a metre of lift, a few metres of hose and a bed of medium sits between them, and no listing can say where — but a listing with both figures has described the curve rather than one point on it.
Three systems in this family publish both. Six publish the flow alone.
Ten kilograms of sand, in a system stated for pools to 60 m³.
That is the smallest charge in this family against one of the largest stated pool volumes, and the two figures pull in opposite directions: a bed catches what it has depth to catch. The page prints both and leaves the tension visible.
Above-ground pools run on 32 or 38 mm and the pool decides. A system supplying an adapter for both has removed the most common reason a filter sits unopened for a week.

The American, British and French Amazon catalogues hold the reference with no seller standing behind it.
The Italian and Spanish Amazon stores gave back nothing, so the buy button there lands on a search instead of a blank page.

Because the flow was measured with nothing attached. Nine thousand litres an hour at zero head and 7.5 m of maximum head describe the two ends of a curve, and an installation sits somewhere between them. Six systems in this family publish one end only.
It is a sample. The tank takes up to 10 kg of sand, and the filter-ball equivalent for a tank that size is measured in hundreds of grams to over a kilogram depending on the maker. The page treats the media as a second purchase, as it does across this family.
It leaves the valve in a setting the maker intends for an out-of-season system. Five systems here publish a seven-position valve with a winter setting and two publish six positions without one; the function list is on every page in this family.
A mid-sized pool where knowing the head before ordering matters

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
2 700 l/h flow, 16 l tank, balls supplied, TÜV certified
The smallest and cheapest system here, with a transparent lid so the bed can be watched, a set of filter balls in the box, and a TÜV Rheinland certificate quoted with its ID number.
Best for: A small pool or a spa where the bed being visible matters more than the flow
