Product details

The Hayward ECX1040 is the complete bump handle assembly for Perflex DE filters, molded in Noryl and supplied with the pin, shoulder screw and nut.

What the bump handle does

A Perflex filter does not backwash. Instead you bump the handle, which flexes the tubes inside and shakes the caked DE loose so it redistributes evenly. That is the routine that brings filter pressure back down. Every one of those bumps loads the handle, which is why it is the part that usually breaks on an older filter.

Fitment

Hayward lists this handle for the Perflex EC50, EC50C, EC50A, EC50AC, EC65, EC65A, EC75 and EC75A. Because it arrives complete with its hardware, there is nothing to reuse from the broken one.

Questions and answers

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

Does it include the hardware?
Yes. The ECX1040 assembly comes with the pin, the shoulder screw and the nut.
Which Perflex filters does it fit?
Hayward lists the EC50, EC50C, EC50A, EC50AC, EC65, EC65A, EC75 and EC75A. Our catalog also files it under the EC30 and EC40 Perflex parts group, so confirm against your filter before ordering if you have one of those.
What is Noryl?
A tough engineering plastic. Hayward uses it here because the handle takes the full force every time the filter is bumped.
Why does the handle keep breaking?
Bumping loads the handle hard each stroke, and years of that plus sun exposure make the old plastic brittle. Bumping gently and regularly, rather than hard and rarely, is easier on the replacement.
