Filbur FC-9460 De Filter Grid Universal Small 72 Pool Filter

Product Description

The FILBUR FC-9460 is a replacement diatomaceous earth (DE) filter grid engineered for universal small 72-square-foot heavy-duty swimming pool DE filter systems. Constructed from 100 percent polypropylene cloth, the grid uses a higher-denier fiber and a precision weave pattern that delivers consistent control over fabric permeability and filtration efficiency. Polypropylene resists rot, mildew, alkalis, and acids, making it well-suited for the chemical environment of pool water. Licensed pool service technicians and experienced pool equipment installers are the primary trade audience for this component.

This grid is designed for use in the Universal Small 72-square-foot heavy-duty swimming pool DE filter. It measures 35.98 inches by 9.76 inches and is sold as a complete kit. The FC-9460 replaces Unicel DE grid filter model PG-1906, making it a direct-fit option for technicians servicing that equipment in residential pool installations.

Key Features

• 100 percent polypropylene cloth finished to precise standards for consistent filtration efficiency, dirt holding, and decake release
• Higher-denier fiber with a controlled weave pattern for improved permeability management and lower pressure drop
• Rot, mildew, acid, and alkali resistant for long service life in pool water environments
• Reinforced frames and connections with fewer glue joints for increased torsional strength and snap resistance
• Reinforced spines reduce grid flexion and extend service intervals
• Sold as a complete kit - no additional grid components required

Compatibility

Designed as a direct replacement for the Universal Small 72-square-foot heavy-duty swimming pool DE filter. Replaces Unicel DE grid filter model PG-1906.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pool service technician familiar with DE filter disassembly and reassembly procedures. Before servicing, shut down the pump, relieve system pressure, and close isolation valves according to the filter manufacturer's procedure. Inspect the manifold, standpipe, and tank o-rings for wear before reinstalling the grid assembly. Follow local codes and the filter manufacturer's guidelines for backwash and DE powder recharge after reassembly.
