MultiCyclone

MULTICYCLONE

MultiCyclone is a brilliant prefiltration device that can save 
water and minimise pool filter maintenance. Based on 
the principals of centrifugal water filtration, MultiCyclone 
filters up to 80% of the pool’s dirt load before it reaches 
the pool filter and only requires 15 litres (4 gallons) of water 
to cleanse.

•  Minimises filter maintenance and saves water.

•  No filter media to clean or replace.

•  Multiple hydrocyclones.

•  Suitable for new and existing installations.

Centrifugal Water Filtration

Incoming water tangentially enters its multiple hydrocyclones, generating a strong centrifugal 
effect.  Approximately  80%  of  the  incoming  dirt  load  is  spiralled  down  to  its  clear  sediment 
chamber. The outgoing water is piped to the finally polished via the pools filtration system.

Simple maintenance

The MultiCyclone sediment chamber is easily cleaned by opening its purge valve. Only 15 litres 
(4 gallons) of water is discharged.

Minimise Sand Filter Backwash Frequency

The installation of a MultiCyclone as a pre-filter to a sand filter can reduce its backwash 
frequency to once per year, resulting in a saving of up to 7000 litres (1850 gallons) of water per 
year for an average domestic sized swimming pool.

Minimise Filter Cartridge Cleaning and Replacement

The installation of a MultiCyclone as a pre-filter to a cartridge filter can reduce filter cartridge 
cleaning and replacement to once per swimming season and even up to once per year, 
depending on the size of the cartridge filter.

The accumulation of sediment can be visibly monitored through the MultiCyclone clear sediment 
chamber. The Multicyclone sediment chamber is cleaned by simply opening the purge valve. 
Only 15 litres (4 gallons) of water is discharged to clean the Multicyclone of sediment

Note:

 The MultiCyclone centrifugal section is designed to filter sediment that is heavier than 

water; floating debris cannot be filtered out by centrifugal filtration.
