3.3.4 Seawater strainer
Install raw water strainer in
an area where it will be easily
accessible for inspection and
cleaning. Strainer should be
installed in water inlet hose

valve) to allow operator to shut
off water when cleaning strain-
er.
3.3.5 Fittings
IMPORTANT
If other/more fittings or pipes then included in the scope of supply are needed use only
bronze hardware.
If more lenght of hose is needed then included in the scope of supply use only MARINE-
WATER HOSE, steel reinforced and suitable for 2.5 bar (35 psi) both suction or pressure.
Use sealing compound or tape at all connections to prevent air leaks. The neoprene impeller in the raw water pump
should never be run dry. All hose joints should be double clamped with 304/316 stainless-steel hose clamps. T-bolt
clamps are even better but must be 304/316 stainless.
