- Compact design enables this one unit to act as an elbow, strainer and entry pipe to the suction side of the pump, this reduces installation time, overall cost and reduces joint leak paths
- Reduced outlet design eliminates the need for a reducing base elbow
- Quick opening knobs allow for quick maintenance
- O-ring seal eliminates the need to clean the sealing area and install a new flat gasket in competitive models
- Straightening vanes on the suction diffuser's outlet side reduces turbulence into the pump, these minimize stress and erosion within the pump and eliminate the need for a length of straight pipe to diminish turbulence
- Robust 5 to 1 open area ratio and blow off feature extend the time between servicing and allows for ease of draining and flushing
- A separate removable fine 20 mesh screen liner is installed in each Diffuser for start-up, after the start-up period, simply remove and discard, leaving the primary screen for operation
