Water system components Typical example (1) Inlet port (2) Strainer assembly |
When the water spray pump is operating, water is drawn from the supply truck through inlet port (13) and strainer assembly (14). The water spray pump sends filtered water through the flow transmitter and to the spray nozzles. The strainer assembly should be serviced daily. A plugged strainer can cause erratic flow and/or pump cavitation.
Note: The water system does not have a recirculation option.
