INSTALLATION & ASSEMBLY
Installation & Assembly of Internal Components
Installation of filter should be only carried out by qualified personnel. Ensure that the
under-drain assembly (hub, laterals & tube) are properly assembled & installed prior to
adding filter media (sand).
1. The filter internals comprise of a collector hub and eight (8) laterals,
which are supplied packaged seperately with the collector hub and are stored inside
the filter tank prior to shipment.
2. Carefully inspect the laterals and hub prior to assembly for any
visible defects.
3. To assemble the laterals and hub please use the following steps. (The connection
between the hub and the lateral is completed inside the filter tank - refer to diagram
on following page)
For P221100 & P225100 Models only:
Push in and align the male tab on the lateral with the female slot in the hub. Rotate the
lateral clockwise until the tabs engage with an audible “click”. Repeat this process for all 8
laterals.
For P229200 & P233200 Models only:
Place the hub inside the neck of the filter tank. Begin by assembling the ‘F’ pieces, align
the lateral key with the hub and insert, turn to lock in place. Repeat with the 4 ‘F’ pieces.
Next, insert the large diameter laterals in the outer socket of the ‘F’ pieces. Repeat 4
times. Finally, insert the small laterals into the inner sockets. Repeat 4 times.
