Marine Strainer

Marine Strainer

1. Overview

Marine strainer, also known as a sea strainer or raw water strainer, is a type of filtration device specifically designed for use in marine applications. It is used to filter the incoming seawater or raw water that is drawn into the cooling or plumbing systems of boats, yachts, or other marine vessels.

2. Function

The primary purpose of a marine strainer is to prevent debris, marine organisms, and other solid particles from entering and potentially clogging the cooling system, engine, or other components that rely on seawater for operation. By filtering the seawater, marine strainers help to maintain the efficiency and performance of marine systems, prevent overheating, and protect vital equipment from damage.

Marine strainers typically consist of a housing or body that is installed in the raw water intake line. Inside the housing, there is a filter element or screen that captures and retains the debris while allowing the water to pass through. The filter element is usually made of corrosion-resistant materials, such as stainless steel or plastic, to withstand the harsh marine environment.

4. Maintenance

The maintenance of marine strainers involves regular inspection and cleaning of the filter element. Over time, the filter element can become clogged with accumulated debris, affecting the water flow and strainer performance. Cleaning or replacing the filter element ensures continuous filtration and proper functioning of the marine system.
