Application Notes

It is recommended to install a suction strainer before each pump to protect the pump from damage. The suction strainer and the suction pipe must be amply dimensioned to minimize pressure losses. The suction strainer should always be provided with an alarm for high differential pressure. The Wärtsilä 31DF Product Guide specifies a fineness of 0.5–1.0 mm for suction strainers 2F01, 2F04 and 2F06.
