On trouve dans le Dictionnaire technique de l'eau et des questions connexes (COLEA), 1968, p.105 l'expression «filtre rapide à sable», mais il vaut mieux ne pas l'employer, parce qu'elle est mal construite. Le Dictionnaire des difficultés de la langue française au Canada (DADIF), 1967, p. 18 nous en donne la raison dans son article sur la place de l'adjectif en précisant que «Le français définit avant de qualifier». 2, record 1, French, - filtre%20%C3%A0%20sable%20rapide
