Description
The Pentair THS4296 42"×96" Horizontal Sand Filter is built for durability and high throughput in large-scale aquatic systems. Its composite laminate shell removes the need for external winding and resists structural fatigue. Rated for internal pressures up to 50 PSI, it can accommodate dynamic system pressures. The internal influent manifold and lateral network ensure uniform flow through the media bed, minimizing bypass and clogging. The front manway layout offers full access while preserving space efficiency. It integrates with manual, semi‑automatic, or automatic backwash control systems to adapt to evolving operational needs.
Pro Tip
Pair with the correct 6″ flanged manifold kit to reduce field plumbing labor and streamline wash cycles. Add a differential pressure switch for maintenance alerts.

Installation Tips
Mount on a level, rigid pad rated for full loaded weight. Pre‑fill vessel partially before adding sand (0.45–0.55 mm effective size). Use corrosion‑resistant hardware. All flange or Victaulic joints must exceed 50 PSI rating. Include air release, bleed, and drain lines. Torque manway bolts per Pentair specs to avoid shell distortion.
