LATERAL ASSY W/CENTER PIPE | GMX152DA

Hayward GMX152DA is a lateral assembly with a center pipe, designed for use in Hayward sand filters. This assembly is a key internal component that ensures efficient water filtration by evenly distributing water through the sand bed and collecting clean water for recirculation.

• Water Distribution and Filtration:
• The lateral assembly consists of multiple perforated “fingers” or laterals attached to a central pipe.
• Water enters the sand filter, flows through the sand bed, and is evenly distributed by the laterals.
• Contaminants are trapped in the sand, and the clean water is collected through the lateral assembly.
• Backwashing Support:
• During backwashing, the assembly allows reverse(backwash) water flow to flush out debris trapped in the sand, ensuring optimal filter performance.
• Replacement:
• Replacing a worn or damaged lateral assembly restores proper filtration and prevents sand leakage or poor water clarity.
