The Task Force Tips Floating Low-Level Strainer is a specialized firefighting tool designed to draft water from shallow sources such as ponds, rivers, or portable tanks. It ensures reliable water supply even in low-water conditions, making it essential for emergency operations where every gallon counts.
Features
- Optimized for Low Water Levels: Allows drafting from shallow sources with ease
- Clog-Resistant Screen: Stainless-steel construction ensures high flow and minimizes blockages
- Minimal Friction Loss: 0.5 PSI at 1500 GPM reduces pump strain and maximizes capacity
- Versatile Jet Siphon: Enables quick priming and tank transfer with a freely pivoting design
- Compact and Portable: Built-in handle and compact design simplify transport and storage
- Enhanced Flexibility: Oversized sealed ball pivot with 45° range ensures easy maneuverability
- Removable Float: Quickly adaptable for deeper water drafting with a pull-pin float
How is it used?
Fire crews connect the strainer to a suction hose and place it in the water source. The float keeps the strainer at an optimal level to prevent sediment intake, while the jet siphon assists with priming and transferring water between tanks.
Who uses it?
This tool is primarily used by firefighting teams, emergency response units, and rural fire departments that rely on natural or portable water sources during operations.
Maintenance information
Rinse the strainer thoroughly after each use to remove debris. Inspect the stainless-steel screen for damage and ensure the pivot and float mechanisms move freely. Lubricate moving parts as recommended by the manufacturer.
Storage information
Store in a dry, clean environment away from corrosive materials. Keep the float attached or secured to prevent loss and maintain readiness for deployment.
