Product details

The Polaris G57 is the collar for the back-up valve on the Vac-Sweep 180, 280 and 380 pressure side cleaners, and on the 280 TankTrax. It is the genuine Polaris part, molded in plastic.

What the back-up valve does

Every pressure side Polaris relies on it. On a timed cycle the valve diverts water from the cleaner to the back-up jet, which pushes the unit backwards and out of whatever corner, step or ladder it has walked itself into. Without that reversal a cleaner can spend an entire cycle pinned in one place.

The collar in particular

The collar clamps the valve together on the feed hose. It is a small part, and when it cracks the valve loses its seal, weakens, or comes apart altogether. The symptom the owner sees is a cleaner that no longer backs itself out.

While you are there

If the collar has failed, inspect the valve body and the O-ring set at the same time. Polaris sells both separately, and a valve that has been leaking has usually taken its seals along with it.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

What does the back-up valve do?
It interrupts the water flow to the cleaner on a timed cycle and sends it out of the back-up jet, which reverses the cleaner and frees it from a corner or a step.
Which cleaners does the collar fit?
The Polaris Vac-Sweep 180, 280 and 380, and the 280 TankTrax. It is also carried under the 480 Pro parts listings, so check your own parts breakdown if you have that model.
My cleaner gets stuck in a corner. Is the collar the problem?
It can be. If the collar is cracked, the back-up valve does not stay sealed and the reverse cycle either weakens or stops. Check the valve body and O-rings at the same time.
Is this a genuine Polaris part?
Yes. G57 is the Polaris OEM back-up valve collar.
