Pentair Inlet Diverter | FullFloXF™ Backwash Valve | 270200Z

The Pentair Inlet Diverter (270200Z) is the OEM replacement diverter component for the FullFloXF™ Backwash Valve, restoring proper flow direction control to your backwash valve assembly.

The inlet diverter directs water flow through the correct internal passages of the FullFloXF™ Backwash Valve during each operating cycle. When this component wears, cracks, or loses its seal, the valve loses the ability to isolate filter and backwash flow paths accurately — resulting in reduced backwash effectiveness and potential cross-flow between the filter and waste lines. Replacing the inlet diverter restores the valve's ability to route water precisely through each position.

Specifications

Fits Into

Compatibility is based on Pentair parts documentation and available OEM records. This is not an exhaustive list. For certainty, verify the part number in your equipment's manual or on the original part itself before ordering.

Pro Tip

Before ordering, compare part number 270200Z against the number stamped or molded on your existing inlet diverter. If your valve has been in service for several seasons, inspect the valve's internal O-rings and diverter seal at the same time — replacing worn seals alongside the diverter prevents a second disassembly shortly after this repair.
