Product Description
high volume centrifugal pump intake filter options like this Easypro intake screen are designed to protect your pump while keeping water moving in demanding, high-flow applications. Instead of using ultra-fine screening that can clog quickly, this style is built to let fine particles pass through while still helping block larger debris such as sticks, weeds, and fish that can damage impellers or restrict flow.
Built for high-flow reliability
This high volume centrifugal pump intake filter is engineered for jobs where consistent pumping matters. The open mesh pattern helps reduce nuisance plugging compared with finer strainers, which can be especially helpful in ponds, lakes, and irrigation or water-transfer setups where organic debris is common.
- Heavy-duty screen construction: Made from epoxy-coated, heavy-gauge galvanized wire to help resist rust and corrosion in typical water environments.
- Debris protection: Helps keep out larger objects while allowing smaller particles through to reduce frequent cleaning.
- Integrated priming support: Includes a PVC swing check valve to help keep pumps primed between cycles.
- Mesh size: 1/2" x 1" openings to balance protection and flow.
- Fits multiple pipe sizes: Available for 2", 3", 4", 6", and 8" pipe applications.
Where this intake screen works best
Choose this high volume centrifugal pump intake filter when you need a practical intake safeguard for high-volume pumping and want a screen that’s less prone to clogging than fine-mesh alternatives. It’s a solid choice for contractors and property owners who prefer straightforward maintenance: inspect periodically, clear accumulated debris, and keep intake placement off the bottom when possible to reduce sediment ingestion.
FAQ
Will this screen stop small sand or silt? The mesh is designed to allow fine particles to pass; it focuses on blocking larger debris that can cause immediate intake obstruction or damage.
Does it help with pump priming? Yes, the included PVC swing check valve is intended to help keep the pump primed.
How do I choose the right size? Match the intake screen to your pipe diameter (2", 3", 4", 6", or 8") and confirm compatibility with your pump’s intake setup and flow requirements.
