Description
1½" disc sand filter
The IBO 1½" disc sand filter protects the pump and installation from mechanical contaminants carried by the water—sand, dust, and other abrasive particles. The disc cartridge traps particles before they reach the hydraulic system, and its reusable design allows the filter to be cleaned and used for years. It is essential protection for installations supplied from a private water source.
Who is it for
- Well and private water-source owners – the filter traps sand and dust from untreated water before they reach the pump and installation.
- Users of surface pumps – protecting hydraulic components from abrasive particles extends the pump’s service life.
- Farms and gardeners – clean water in the irrigation system reduces clogging of sprinklers and drip lines.
- Installers – the compact housing and drain valve facilitate installation and periodic cartridge cleaning.
Applications
The filter is installed on the pipeline downstream of the water source, before the building’s main water intake or before a surface pump. It traps abrasive mechanical contaminants such as sand and dust, which would otherwise accelerate wear on the impeller and seals. It is most commonly used with water from wells, tanks, and surface water intakes.
It is suitable for agriculture, irrigation, horticulture, and domestic installations. The drain valve facilitates sediment removal, while the cartridge can be removed and rinsed without replacing the entire filter. In installations supplied from a private water source, the IBO disc sand filter protects the pump and pipeline from abrasive particles.
Features of the sand filter
The disc sand filter consists of a housing and a replaceable disc cartridge whose grooves trap fine abrasive particles. The housing is made of impact- and chemical-resistant material, allowing the filter to maintain its tightness and durability in demanding conditions. The cartridge is reusable—when dirty, it is removed and rinsed under pressure, eliminating the need for replacement.
The filter traps abrasive contaminants such as sand and dust, but does not remove substances dissolved in water, such as iron. It is available with several connection sizes, and the maximum flow rate increases with the diameter—from smaller variants for domestic installations to larger ones designed for higher-capacity pumps. The drain valve allows accumulated sediment to be discharged without removing the filter.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) – X disc anti-sand filter
What is the X anti-sand filter used for?
The anti-sand filter captures mechanical contaminants carried by water – primarily sand and dust. It is installed after the water source to protect the pump and installation from abrasive particles. It is most commonly used with water from wells and surface intakes.
Does the filter remove iron and sediment from water?
No. The filter captures abrasive particles such as sand and dust, but it does not remove dissolved substances from the water, including iron. Separate water-treatment solutions are required to reduce iron and similar contaminants.
How do you clean the anti-sand filter element?
The filter element is reusable – remove it from the housing and rinse it under pressure until the sediment is removed. The drain valve allows some of the contaminants to be discharged beforehand without disassembly. Regular cleaning maintains flow and filtration effectiveness.
Where should the anti-sand filter be installed?
The filter is installed on the pipeline after the water source, before the main intake in the building or before a surface pump. This arrangement protects the pump’s hydraulic components from sand and dust. It is important to ensure access to the filter element for cleaning.
What size anti-sand filter should I choose?
The size should be selected based on the installation diameter and required flow rate – connections from 3/4" to 1½" are available, and the maximum flow increases with diameter, from 75 to 200 l/min. Larger variants support higher-capacity pumps. It is advisable to match the filter to the pump’s specifications so as not to restrict its performance.
Where can the IBO anti-sand filter be purchased?
As the manufacturer, we do not sell directly. The IBO disc anti-sand filter can be purchased from our trade partners, installation wholesalers, and authorized online distributors. The connection size should be selected to match the installation diameter.
What is the warranty on the IBO anti-sand filter?
IBO – 24 months (2 years) manufacturer’s warranty. Warranty and post-warranty service is provided by Dambat. For questions about selecting the right size, it is best to contact an authorized distributor.
