Hayward SX200EB Drain Pipe Assembly - For S200T

What This Part Is Used For
The Hayward SX200EB is a drain pipe assembly specified for the Hayward S200T sand filter. It routes water out of the filter during draining for winterizing, sand changes, and service. This assembly is located at the lower drain area of the filter tank.

Why This Part Matters
If the drain pipe assembly is cracked or leaking, the filter may drip continuously or drain poorly during service. Drain problems slow down winterizing and can leave water trapped in the tank, which increases freeze risk. Replacing the correct assembly restores controlled draining and helps keep the equipment pad dry. It is commonly serviced when drain threads are damaged or components have been overtightened.
