Z-style Distributor Parts
SWT’s Water’s Edge Z-style Top Mount Distributors are manufactured of solid PVC bar stock and Schedule 80 PVC pipe. They are available with a 1.5-inch, 2-inch, or 3-inch socket riser tube port (riser tube available separately). All Z-style systems are intended for use in tanks with a blind bottom flange (bottom flange available separately). A slotted strainer is affixed to the bottom of the hub to eliminate dead zones between the closure and the hub.

Water’s Edge Distributor Systems are extra strong and durable for use with heavy filtration medias (gravel, sand, garnet) and can be used with a variety of regenerants including salt, caustics, acids, chlorine, etc. The collection screens (laterals) have 0.010 standard slotting for use with 50 mesh filter media or larger. They are designed to spread flow evenly across the filter bed to eliminate dead zones and to provide proper and even lift and separation during backwash.
