Hayward 48 Sq. Ft. Full Grid Element for Micro Clear and Pro Grid D.E. Filters
Quick overview
- Genuine Hayward Factory element DEX4800DA, not an aftermarket grid.
- Full grid This is a full size grid, not one of the partial or half grids in the same filter.
- Micro Clear and Pro Grid Listed for Hayward Micro Clear and Pro Grid D.E. filters.
- Also listed for stainless models It appears in the parts list for the stainless steel Micro Clear filters as well.
- Grids are consumable Fabric tears and manifold cracks let D.E. straight through to the pool, and no amount of backwashing fixes that.
- Count before you order Filters use a set of grids together, so check how many of yours are damaged before ordering a single element.

Product details
The Hayward DEX4800DA is a full grid element for Micro Clear and Pro Grid diatomaceous earth filters. It is the genuine Hayward part.
How a D.E. grid works
Each grid is a fabric covered frame. Diatomaceous earth coats the fabric, and it is that coating, not the fabric itself, that does the filtering down to the fine particle sizes D.E. filters are known for. The grids sit as a set in the tank around a central manifold.
When a grid needs replacing
The tell is D.E. returning to the pool. If powder blows back through the returns when you charge the filter, or you find grit on the floor near a return, a grid has torn or a manifold has split, and backwashing will not put it right. Pull the element cluster and look at every grid; damage is often in more than one. Match part number DEX4800DA and the sizing on your own filter plate before you order, and replace grids as a set wherever you can, since new fabric next to worn fabric loads unevenly.
