Pentair 24" Tagelus Sand Filter w/ 2" Hybrid Valve w/ Unions (TA60D) Sand filters have been installed on tens of thousands of pools for decades – a testament to their performance, value and ease of use. But not all sand filters were created equally, because not all include design features that continuously flatten and level the sand inside the tank. This is the key to consistent performance and quicker cleaning cycles that keep pump operating costs low.
Pentair 24" Tagelus Sand Filter w/ Valve (TA60D) Sand filters have been installed on tens of thousands of pools for decades – a testament to their performance, value and ease of use. But not all sand filters were created equally, because not all include design features that continuously flatten and level the sand inside the tank. This is the key to consistent performance and quicker cleaning cycles that keep pump operating costs low. Now with new, exclusive, patented technology that dramatically improves water clarity by 60% Traditional sand filters can only remove particles in the 50-100 micron range, but ClearPro Technologyremoves particles up to five times smaller, well below what your eye can detect. When combined with our popular Tagelus sand filter, your pool will achieve 60% cleaner water than with other sand filters. However, Tagelus remains blissfully simple, requiring less maintenance than either cartridge or D.E. filters. Just an occasional backwashing with a simple turn of a valve for the clearest water, year after year.
Key Features:
The Tagleus filter tank is constructed in one piece from fibreglass-reinforced material to deliver unmatched strength and durability for years of service.
Tagelus filters provide years of service with only periodic backwashing to remove trapped debris from the sand
A special diffuser creates a uniform sand bed that consistently traps more dirt without impeding the water flow or letting it race through too fast – the result is more effective filtration and longer times between backwashing
Combination sand and water drain speeds servicing and winterizing
All internal parts are threaded for fast and easy service
Filter Area Sq. Ft.: 3.1

Easy does it. The 6 position Hi-Flow Valve has a manual air relief valve and a sight glass to make inspection, routine maintenance and operation fast, easy and safer. Pressure gauge also included.

The Pentair Tagelus 24" TA60D sand filter is ideal for medium to larger in‑ground pools, typically up to about 36,000 gallons (approximately 136,000 liters) when operated with a standard pump. Its 3.1 sq ft filtration area and 60 GPM flow rate deliver solid circulation and turnover for many residential installations.
The included 2" hybrid multiport valve with unions provides easy connection to 2" plumbing and six positions: Filter, Backwash, Rinse, Waste, Recirculate, and Closed, for full control over filtration and maintenance. The valve’s Hi‑Flow™ design supports efficient backwashing and flow, and the clamp‑style top mount simplifies accessory service.
The Tagelus stands out with its one‑piece fiberglass‑reinforced tank, which offers excellent corrosion resistance and long‑term durability compared with many sand filters built with standard polymer tanks. Its internal design maximizes sand exposure and promotes longer filter cycles between backwashing, which can reduce maintenance frequency.
Installation of the Tagelus TA60D is straightforward thanks to its top‑mount multiport configuration and included 2" unions for quick plumbing connections. Routine maintenance follows the same simple pattern as many sand filters , backwash when the pressure gauge rises 8-10 PSI above normal. The combined water‑and‑sand drain makes service and winterizing faster than some older filter designs.
