Keep Debris Out of Pumps and Irrigation Systems with Self-Cleaning Pump Suction Screens

If you are designing an irrigation system that uses an open water source you will most likely need primary filtration. A self-cleaning pump screen filter attached to the end of the pump suction line is the first opportunity to keep large debris out of the pump and irrigation system. All water must pass through the screen before entering the pump intake pipe, thus preventing sticks, leaves, fish, turtles, etc. from entering. Rotating sprays blast away debris trapped on the screen.

Specifying primary filtration, such as Rain Bird’s PSS Series Self-Cleaning Pump Suction Screen is the first step to ensure the pump and irrigation system operates the way you designed it and reduces the potential for damage to the pump and other downstream components. The all-metal construction is completely corrosion resistant and there are no exterior moving parts that can break down or need repair. The screen drum is also removable.
