The Kochek Bottom Guard Barrel Strainer is a high-performance drafting tool designed for fire departments and emergency water transfer operations. It provides a stable platform for water drafting while preventing clogging from debris at the lake or pond bottom. This strainer combines durability, efficiency, and protection for uninterrupted water flow.
Features
- Swiveling Guard: Allows the strainer to move smoothly toward the lake bottom while maintaining a clean and stable drafting position.
- High-Flow Performance: Comparable to Kochek’s standard Barrel Strainer for maximum water transfer efficiency.
- Clog Protection: Added bottom guard prevents debris from obstructing water intake.
- Threaded NH Rocker Lug Connection: Ensures secure and reliable attachment to hoses.
- Durable Finish: Powder coat options include Black Wrinkle, Silvadillo, and Black Standard for long-lasting protection.
How is it used?
Attach the strainer to a suction hose using the NH Rocker Lug connection. Lower it into the water source until the guard rests on the bottom. The swiveling guard stabilizes the strainer and prevents debris from entering, ensuring consistent water flow during drafting operations.
Who uses it?
Primarily used by fire departments, emergency response teams, and industrial operations requiring high-volume water drafting from natural sources like lakes, ponds, or rivers.
Maintenance information
Inspect the strainer regularly for debris buildup and clean after each use. Check the swiveling guard for smooth movement and ensure the powder-coated finish remains intact to prevent corrosion.
Storage information
Store in a dry, cool environment away from direct sunlight. Avoid stacking heavy objects on top of the strainer to maintain its structural integrity.
