The cyclone stage takes roughly 80% of the dirt out first, so the cartridge needs cleaning far less often. The Plus has a 40 sq ft cartridge for pools up to 73,000 litres, the Ultra a 75 sq ft cartridge for in ground pools up to 108,000 or 134,000 litres. Pick the size to match your pipework, 40mm or 50mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIdeal for\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlus:\u003c\/strong\u003e above ground and small to medium in ground pools, and tight equipment pads, as it stands upright on the pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUltra:\u003c\/strong\u003e small to large in ground pools, or replacing a worn sand filter and wanting to stop backwashing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePools where the cartridge gets clogged too often, and anyone who wants a 15 litre flush rather than a sand backwash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Specs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCartridge capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e extended up to 5 times by the cyclone stage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMax pressure:\u003c\/strong\u003e 350 kPa (50 psi)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCleaning:\u003c\/strong\u003e open the 25mm purge valve to flush the sediment chamber, about 15 litres to waste\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBuild:\u003c\/strong\u003e glass filled thermoplastic with a clear polycarbonate sediment chamber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePlus (C40 cartridge)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMultiCyclone 12 Plus C40 (200376):\u003c\/strong\u003e 40mm \/ 1 1\/2\" unions, flow 40 to 152 L\/min, 12 hydrocyclones\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMultiCyclone 16 Plus C40 (200377):\u003c\/strong\u003e 50mm \/ 2\" unions, flow 50 to 152 L\/min, 16 hydrocyclones\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCartridge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.7 m2 (40 sq ft) pleated cartridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePool size:\u003c\/strong\u003e up to 73,000 litres, per Waterco\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBoth sizes\u003c\/strong\u003e share the same 152 L\/min flow ceiling because the cartridge sets the limit, the 16 only gets bigger ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eUltra (C75 cartridge)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMultiCyclone 12 Ultra C75 (200378):\u003c\/strong\u003e 40mm \/ 1 1\/2\" unions, flow 40 to 225 L\/min, pools up to 108,000 litres\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMultiCyclone 16 Ultra C75 (200379):\u003c\/strong\u003e 50mm \/ 2\" unions, flow 50 to 280 L\/min, pools up to 134,000 litres\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCartridge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.9 m2 (75 sq ft) pleated cartridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting:\u003c\/strong\u003e support it with the MultiCyclone support stand or a solid base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy We Like It\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompact and tidy, and the 15 litre flush is a big saving on water against backwashing a sand filter.
