Key specifications

Choosing the right option

Choose the size from the female BSP thread on your suction line and check the working pressure for that size. The strainer cartridge is there to keep debris out, so check it from time to time in dirty water. For a check valve that sits in the line rather than at the end of the suction hose, see Dixon Brass Inline Spring Check Valve Europa Brass Stem.

The working pressure falls as the size increases; use the figure for your size.
