It is the top head component that closes the filter and provides the top connection area for operation and service access. This part sits at the top of the filter on the equipment pad.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy This Part Matters\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e If the filter head is cracked or warped, the filter can leak under pressure and become unreliable during normal filtration and backwashing. A compromised top head can also make it hard to keep seals seated and can lead to repeat leaks after service. Replacing the correct head restores a secure top closure so the filter holds pressure properly. This is a common repair after freeze damage or overtightening during prior maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features and Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eManufacturer part number: SX200BT\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFilter head for Hayward S200T sand filter\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eColor listed: taupe\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTop closure component on the filter assembly\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eReplacement part for cracked or leaking filter head assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation and Fitment Guidance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Relieve all filter pressure before removing the head or loosening any clamp hardware.
