1.5 inch Inlet Strainer Basket Reeflo – Stainless Steel Sequence Pumps

Description

Product Overview

The Reeflo 1.5 inch Inlet Strainer Basket is a precision‑engineered component designed to safeguard Sequence external pumps from unwanted particles and debris. Measuring 12.1 x 10.4 x 8.8 inches and weighing 4.6 pounds, this basket offers a compact footprint while delivering robust performance. Constructed from high‑grade stainless steel, it resists corrosion, withstands high‑pressure environments, and maintains structural integrity over prolonged use. The basket’s fine mesh captures sand, rust, and other contaminants before they can reach the pump’s impeller, reducing wear and extending service intervals. Its universal 1‑1/2″ intake fit makes it a direct replacement for original equipment, ensuring a seamless integration without the need for additional adapters.

Usage

Designed for industrial plumbing, water treatment, and marine applications, this strainer basket excels in any setting where clean water flow is critical. Whether installed in a commercial aquarium, a cooling‑tower system, or a high‑capacity irrigation line, the basket’s durable construction handles fluctuating flow rates and temperature extremes. It is especially effective for Sequence pumps, which rely on a clear intake to maintain efficiency and prevent costly downtime. Installation is straightforward: the basket connects directly to the pump’s 1‑1/2″ inlet using standard hose clamps, allowing technicians to replace or service the strainer in minutes. Regular inspection and cleaning of the basket ensure optimal performance and help operators adhere to preventive‑maintenance schedules.

FAQ

What size pump intake does this strainer fit?

The basket is engineered for a 1‑1/2″ (38 mm) intake, which matches the standard inlet size of Sequence external pumps. It connects directly without additional adapters.

How often should the strainer be cleaned?

Cleaning frequency depends on water quality and system usage. In environments with high sediment load, inspect the basket weekly and clean as needed. For cleaner water sources, a monthly check is typically sufficient.

Can this basket be used with other pump brands?

While optimized for Sequence pumps, the 1‑1/2″ inlet size is common across many industrial pump manufacturers. Verify the inlet dimensions of your pump; if it matches, the basket can be installed safely.

Is the stainless steel suitable for marine applications?

Yes. The grade of stainless steel used is marine‑grade, offering excellent resistance to saltwater corrosion, making it ideal for aquarium, seawater, and offshore installations.
