0.55kW Dayliff DX500 Pool Pump Filter – Reliable Filtration for Medium Domestic Pools

The 0.55kW Dayliff DX500 Pool Pump Filter is a high-performance filtration system designed for medium-sized domestic swimming pools and light institutional applications, delivering consistently clean, clear, and healthy pool water.

Part of the proven Dayliff DX filter range, the DX500 combines advanced filtration technology with durable construction refined through over twenty years of production experience. The system features a robust, moulded GRP (glass-reinforced plastic) filter body, providing excellent structural strength, corrosion resistance, and long service life in chemically treated pool environments.

A flange-connected six-position multiport valve with union connections ensures simple installation, easy servicing, and reliable, watertight operation. Internally engineered collector laterals maximise filtration efficiency and backwashing performance while minimising media loss.

Using high-grade silica sand filtration media, the DX500 delivers dependable water clarity and efficient debris removal, making it an ideal choice where filtration performance and reliability cannot be compromised.
