Description
1¼" Disc Sand Filter
The IBO 1¼" disc sand filter protects the pump and installation from mechanical contaminants carried with the water—sand, dust, and other abrasive particles. The disc cartridge traps particles before they reach the hydraulic system, while its reusable design allows the filter to be cleaned and used for years. It is essential protection for installations supplied by a private water source.
Who is it for?
- Well and private water-source owners – the filter traps sand and dust from raw water before they reach the pump and installation.
- Users of surface pumps – protecting the hydraulic components from abrasive particles extends the pump’s service life.
- Farmers and gardeners – clean water in the irrigation system reduces clogging of sprinklers and drip lines.
- Installers – the compact housing and drain valve make installation and periodic cartridge cleaning easier.
Application
The filter is installed on the pipeline downstream of the water source, before the main intake in the building 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 sources.
It is suitable for agriculture, irrigation, gardening, and domestic installations. The drain valve makes it easier to remove sediment, while the cartridge can be removed and rinsed without replacing the entire filter. In an installation supplied by a private water source, the IBO disc sand filter protects the pump and pipeline against 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 material resistant to impact and chemicals, allowing the filter to maintain its tightness and durability in demanding conditions. The cartridge is reusable—it can be removed and pressure-rinsed when dirty, without needing 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 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 removed without dismantling the filter.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) – X disc sand filter
What is the X sand filter used for?
The sand filter traps mechanical contaminants carried with the water—primarily sand and dust. It is installed downstream of the water source to protect the pump and installation from abrasive particles. It is most commonly used with water from wells and surface water sources.
Does the filter remove iron and sediment from water?
No. The filter traps abrasive particles such as sand and dust, but does not remove substances dissolved in water, including iron. Separate water-treatment solutions are required to reduce iron and similar contaminants.
How do you clean the sand filter cartridge?
The cartridge is reusable—it is removed from the housing and pressure-rinsed until the sediment has been removed. The drain valve allows some contaminants to be discharged beforehand without dismantling the filter. Regular cleaning maintains the flow rate and filtration efficiency.
Where should the sand filter be installed?
The filter is installed on the pipeline downstream of 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 cartridge for cleaning.
What size sand filter should you choose?
The size is selected according to the installation diameter and required flow rate—connections from 3/4" to 1½" are available, and the maximum flow increases with the diameter, from 75 to 200 l/min. Larger variants are suitable for higher-capacity pumps. It is worth matching the filter to the pump parameters so as not to restrict its performance.
Where can you buy an IBO sand filter?
As the manufacturer, we do not sell directly. The IBO disc sand filter can be purchased from our trade partners, plumbing wholesalers, and authorized online distributors. The connection size should be selected according to the installation diameter.
What is the warranty on the IBO sand filter?
IBO – 24-month (2-year) manufacturer’s warranty. Warranty and post-warranty service is provided by Dambat. For questions about selecting the size, it is best to contact an authorized distributor.
