This marine brass suction strainer for bilge pumps serves as a suction point and coarse filter on the suction side of a bilge pump system. The stainless steel debris-protection screen retains dirt and other impurities before they reach the pump, thereby helping to protect the pump's suction side.
The filter is available with either a horizontal or vertical connection direction. The weighted, free-standing version is designed to remain in place on the bottom without fastening screws, while the vertical version is suitable for fixed mounting on a wall or bulkhead.
The housing is made of marine brass, and the filter screen is made of stainless steel. The design is suitable for self-priming pumps with the connection specification 1/2″ or 16/19 mm. The 16/19 mm specification has been kept as is, as it is not further specified as a particular hose size. The product is a passive mechanical component without electrical connection.
The weighted version has overall catalog dimensions of 56 × 56 × 96 mm. A separate height parameter of 25 mm is also indicated, which does not necessarily describe the product's total maximum height. The wall-mounted version has a documented base dimension of 55 × 55 mm, which should be used as a mounting dimension rather than as the product's total length and width.
