Description
A 5″ Suction Screen-Zinc is a device used to prevent debris from entering a fire pump. It is typically made of zinc, which is a durable and corrosion-resistant metal. The screen has a mesh that allows water to pass through, but blocks larger objects such as leaves, sticks, and rocks.
Suction screens are typically attached to the end of a fire hose or to a suction pipe. They are especially important when pumping water from open sources such as lakes, rivers, and ponds. Suction screens help to protect the fire pump from damage and ensure that it operates efficiently.
5″ Suction Screens-Zinc are commonly used on fire trucks, but they can also be used on other types of pumps, such as irrigation pumps and industrial pumps.
