Suction strainer (for check valves) 1 inch 1900160

Suction strainer for check valves – reliable protection for the installation

The suction strainer, made of stainless steel, is a key element of the water installation, providing effective protection of check valves against contamination. Its task is to catch larger solid particles, such as sand, rust or sediment, which could damage the valve or restrict its flow rate. This is a simple yet extremely important solution that extends the life of the entire installation and minimizes the risk of failure.

Construction and materials

The suction strainer with a nominal diameter of 1 inch (25 mm) is characterized by a solid construction. It is made entirely of stainless steel 304 (1.4301) – a material resistant to corrosion and the action of chemical agents present in water. Thanks to this, the strainer retains its properties for a long time, even in difficult operating conditions. The connection length is 56 mm.

Application and benefits

The suction strainer is widely used in water supply systems, heating installations and in industry. It is particularly recommended for use with check valves, where its presence is crucial for the proper functioning of the device. Installing a suction strainer is an investment in the reliability and durability of the entire installation:

• Valve protection: Prevents mechanical damage to the check valve caused by contamination.
• Maintaining flow rate: Ensures a free flow of medium, eliminating the risk of valve clogging.
• Reduced repair costs: Minimizes the need for frequent repairs and replacement of check valves.
• Long service life: Stainless steel construction guarantees corrosion resistance and long-term use.
• Easy maintenance: The suction strainer can be easily removed and cleaned, which facilitates regular maintenance of the installation – the cleaning system is based on the possibility of flushing with a drain.

The nominal diameter is 1 inch (25 mm), and the housing material is stainless steel grade 304 (1.4301). Connection length 1 is 56 mm, and the maximum working pressure is 25 bar.

The suction strainer is a simple but effective way to protect the installation from the effects of contamination. Its installation is quick and easy, and the benefits of its use are felt for a long time.
