The Astral Pool XP 3.0 is a high-performance single speed pool pump designed for large residential swimming pools and demanding circulation systems. Engineered as a powerful replacement for older BX series pumps, the XP range delivers high flow rates, improved hydraulic efficiency and quieter operation while maintaining reliable long-term performance.
Powered by a 3.0HP 240V single phase motor, the XP 3.0 delivers a maximum flow of 635 litres per minute, making it suitable for large pools, in-floor cleaning systems, swim jets and high-capacity filtration systems. The pump is designed to move more water efficiently, helping reduce operating time while maintaining effective circulation.
Built for durability, the pump features a robust construction suitable for continuous operation in harsh pool environments. A large capacity hair and lint basket reduces maintenance frequency, while the self-priming centrifugal design allows installation above water level. The pump also operates with reduced fan noise and cooler running temperatures, making it suitable for residential installations.
