Challenger Plus Filter

Dependable and easy to service, the Challenger
is Fluidart’s^® best-selling filter. This efficient bead filter is
produced in five sizes to fit ponds up to 20,000 gallons.

Advantages include its tough fiberglass tank,
side-mounted multiport valve, and ease of installation
and maintenance. No need to disconnect plumbing to
access and service internal components.

The unique Hydra-Swirl design allows solids to be spun
to the center of the vessel where they stay until the
sludge drain is opened. Through the multi-port valve, the
pump delivers a thorough backwash and rinse. With the
drain open and the pump running, solids are purged
under pressure, fully removing waste in a few seconds.

For backwash the Challenger series utilizes Hydra-
Thrust bead agitation, using forced air to agitate the
beads and free up trapped debris.

• Pressurized filter
• Designed for minimal flow restriction.
• Two-inch plumbing throughout.
• 500-550 sqare feet of surface area per square foot of media.
