The Tuf-Tite EF-6 Commercial Series Effluent Filter Assembly is engineered for high-capacity and commercial septic system applications. This heavy-duty filter is designed to reduce suspended solids before wastewater exits the septic tank, protecting the downstream system and extending the lifespan of the drainfield or secondary treatment components.
With its durable, corrosion-resistant construction and large filtration capacity, the EF-6 is ideal for commercial properties, multi-unit housing, and other high-flow installations. The complete assembly includes both the filter cartridge and housing, ready for installation.

In the picture it shows another piece on the bottom. It square and hollow and open on both ends. Is that peice really needed
The square piece youre describing is part of the single-body housing of the filter body, it's there so that water flows into the filter horizontally, instead of vertically. If effluent flows into the filter directly from the bottom, the water flow may carry solids along with it from deeper in the tank, ideally you're wanting to only sample from the middle layer of your tank between the floating scum and the settled scum layers.
Is that a 4 inch pipe?
Yes, it's a 4 inch sch40 female connection, and it also comes with an adapter for SDR (thin-wall) as well.
