Hayward S-210T - User Manual

®
Your Hayward Pro Series high rate sand lter is a high perfor-
mance totally corrosion-proof lter that blends superior ow
characteristics and features with ease of operation. It repre-
sents the very latest in high rate sand lter technology. It is
virtually foolproof in design and operation and when
installed, operated and maintained according to instruc-
tions, your lter with produce clear, sparkling water with
only the least attention and care.
HOW IT WORKS
Your lter uses a special lter sand to remove dirt particles
from pool water. Filter sand is loaded into the lter 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 lter control valve to the top of the lter tank.
As the pool water is pumped though the lter sand, dirt
particles are trapped by the sand bed, and ltered out. The
cleaned pool water is returned from the bottom of the lter
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 lter and piping system.
After a period of time the accumulated dirt in the lter
causes a resistance to ow, and the ow diminishes. This
means it is time to clean (backwash) your lter. With the
control valve in the Backwash position, the water ow is
automatically reversed though the lter so that it is directed
to the bottom of the tank, up through the sand, ushing the
previously trapped dirt and debris out of the waste line.
Once the lter is backwashed (cleaned) of dirt, the control
valve is manually re-sequenced to Rinse, and then Filter, to
resume normal ltering.
INSTALLATION
If you own an above ground pool please see note: NSP1-4
Article V, for safe proper installation of the equipment
package.
Only simple tools (screwdriver and wrenches), plus pipe
sealant for plastic adapters, are required to install and/or
service the lter.
The lter should be placed on a level concrete slab, very
rm ground, or equivalent, as recommended by your
pool dealer. Position the lter so that the piping connec-
tions, control valve and winter drain are convenient and
accessible for operation, servicing and winterizing.
Assemble pump and pump mounting base, (if supplied)
to the lter according to instructions packed with the
base.
