Cleaning the suction strainer
A suction screen is fitted under the INLET measurement point union and protects the pump
from coarse-particle contamination.
The suction strainer must be cleaned at regular intervals according to the prescribed
maintenance intervals. The suction strainer is blocked when no flow exits the FCU.
TIP
If the FCU does not pump any fluid, the suction strainer should be checked and cleaned if
necessary.
Operating the FCU without a suction strainer can lead to malfunction.
1.
Detach all connections to the FCU.
Open the INLET measurement point
in a counterclockwise direction using
a wrench (size = 19 mm).
