Hayward CHECK VALVE & INLET FTG ADPTR

The Hayward Check Valve and Inlet Fitting Adapter (often associated with part number CLX200BS) is a critical hydraulic component designed for the Hayward CL200 and CL220 series automatic chemical feeders. This dual-purpose assembly acts as the connection point between the feeder and the pool's return line, integrating a one-way check valve mechanism to prevent the backflow of highly concentrated chemical solution into the heater or other sensitive upstream equipment when the pump is turned off. It is manufactured from a robust, corrosion-resistant plastic that is specially formulated to withstand the oxidizing effects of chlorine and bromine as well as the high-pressure environment of the pool's plumbing system. The adapter side of the fitting ensures a secure, leak-proof transition for the feeder tubing, while the check valve portion utilizes a spring-loaded or ball-style internal seat to maintain unidirectional flow. For shipping and installation planning, the estimated weight of the Hayward Check Valve and Inlet Fitting Adapter is approximately 0.25 pounds in its retail packaging, with the actual weight of the fitting itself being roughly 0.12 pounds.
