Olympia Express Water Immersion Filter Maximatic – Pre-filter in the Tank
The original water immersion filter for the Maximatic – it sits on the intake hose in the water tank and filters coarse particles before they reach the pump. An important pump protection, a small but crucial service part. Original part from the Schwanden factory.
What makes this filter special
Pump protection from coarse particles
Even clean drinking water can contain lime flakes, mineral deposits, or dust particles – the immersion filter keeps these away from the pump. A clogged or damaged filter strains the pump and can lead to pump failure in the medium term.
Wear part with regular use
Over time, the filter becomes clogged with mineral deposits. Olympia recommendation: replace when visible calcification occurs or at least every 1–2 years, depending on water hardness and intensity of use.
Easy replacement without tools
Remove the water tank, pull the old filter off the intake hose, attach the new filter, reinsert the tank. No tools, no prior experience necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I change the immersion filter?
Depending on water hardness and use: every 2 years for soft water and home use, annually for harder water or frequent use. Immediately if visible calcification occurs.
Does a BRITA filter help to protect the immersion filter?
Yes. Pre-filtered water with low mineral content (our recommendation: 50–100 mg/l) significantly extends the service life of the immersion filter – and additionally protects the pump.
