Christine, You can use this part but filter position on this key assembly is at the 12 o clock position and backwash is at 6 o clock. On a Hayward d.e. filter, those positions are reversed. So when you install this, you will need to make sure those settings are at the correct orientation on the valve.

You do not necessarily have to replace the seals and gaskets as well unless you can tell that the valve is leaking out of the waste port and or the handle does not spring back into position when released. If you decide to replace those other seals and gaskets you can use APCK1034S which includes the spring or APCK1034 which will not.
