AstralPool XC Cartridge Filter Series
Compact Cartridge Filters for High Clarity & Low Maintenance
The AstralPool XC Series Cartridge Filters combine sleek, space‑saving design with powerful cyclonic cartridge filtration—capturing particles down to 10–20 µm while using less water and maintenance than traditional filters. Ideal for Australian pools facing space constraints, water restrictions, or high clarity demands.
Cyclonic Filtration — Cleaner, Longer, Simpler
Featuring patented cyclonic water circulation, the XC range reduces element clogging and extends cartridge lifespan. A self‑locking lid and easy‑access cartridge ensure annual cleaning is fast and tool‑free—no backwashing required.
Sizes to Suit Every Pool
Offered in six active models—XC50, XC75, XC100, XC150, XC200, XC250—the XC Series supports residential and small commercial pools up to ~250,000 L. Choose your model based on cartridge area and turnover needs for optimal performance.
Efficient & Environmentally Friendly
No backwashing saves thousands of litres a year. The compact injection‑moulded body, barrel‑union ports, and oil‑filled pressure gauge make installation, monitoring, and servicing quick and accurate.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Which XC model should I choose?
Match your pool volume to the “8‑hr Turnover” value. For example, a 200,000 L pool fits best with the XC150 or XC200.
Q2: How often do I need to clean the cartridge?
Typically once per year or when pressure rise hits ~20 kPa. Cleaning only requires a quick hose rinse—no backwashing.
Q3: Are these filters saltwater safe?
Yes—constructed from UV- and salt-resistant polypro, the XC series is designed for all pool types, including salt and mineral systems.
