The pre-filter basket of the Astral Victoria pump is the first stage of protection for the pump’s hydraulics against coarse impurities from pool water. It captures leaves, hair, insects and larger particles, thereby preventing the impeller from clogging and the pump’s performance from being reduced.
The part is made of durable plastic with a fine mesh structure that minimizes hydraulic resistance while maximizing the capture of impurities. The precise shaping ensures easy insertion and removal from the pre-filter body.
Clean the basket regularly every week or whenever there is a noticeable drop in the pump’s flow rate. A damaged basket must be replaced immediately to prevent impurities from entering the pump.
