Your Hayward S200 high-rate sand filter is a high
performance, totally corrosion-proof filter that blends
superior flow characteristics and features with ease of
operation. It represents the very latest in high-rate sand
filter technology. It is virtually foolproof in design and
operation and when installed, operated and maintained
according to instructions, your filter will produce clear,
sparkling water with only the least attention and care.
HOW IT WORKS
The S200 filter uses special filter sand to remove dirt
particles from the water. Filter sand is loaded into the filter
tank and functions as the permanent dirt removing media.
The pool water, which contains suspended dirt particles, is
pumped through your piping system and is automatically
directed by the patented filter control valve to the top of the
filter tank. As the pool water is pumped through the filter
sand, dirt particles are trapped by the sand bed, and filtered
out. The cleaned pool water is returned from the bottom of
the filter tank, through the control valve and back to the pool
through the piping system. This entire sequence is
continuous and automatic and provides for total
recirculation of pool water through your filter and piping
system.
After a period of time, the accumulated dirt in the filter
causes a resistance to flow, and the flow diminishes. This
means it is time to clean (backwash) your filter. With the
control valve in the backwash position, the water flow is
automatically reversed through the filter so that it is directed
to the bottom of the tank, up through the sand, flushing the
previously trapped dirt and debris out the waste line. Once
the filter is backwashed (cleaned) of dirt, the control valve is
manually resequenced to Rinse, and then Filter, to resume
normal filtering.
INSTALLATION
Only simple tools (screwdriver and wrenches), plus pipe
sealant for plastic adapters, are required to install and/or
service the S200 filter.
The filter system should be placed on a
level
concrete
slab, very firm ground, or equivalent, as recommended
by your pool dealer. Position the filter so that the piping
connections, control valve and winter drain are
convenient and accessible for operation, service and
winterizing.
Assemble Vari-Flo filter control valve to filter. Align the
two (2) valve pipe connections, with O-rings in place,
with the two openings in the side of the filter tank and
press in firmly. Secure the assembly to the tank
connections with the two bulkhead locknuts.
Do not overtighten.
