The stock excuse for an oil filter. Goes between the sump plate and the pick-up tube and helps reduce the large chunks from getting sucked up into the oil pump. If you run a true FF oil filtering system, you can toss this thing out.

a basket in front of the pump which keeps fine debris from reaching the pump's impeller area. Must be cleaned periodically.

A fitting at the end of a suction hose that prevents solids larger than its solids handling capability from entering the pump.

An assembly of woven wire cloth for the removal of unwanted foreign particles from a stream of liquid or gas. It includes any necessary fittings or reinforcements, is usually complete in itself, and may be considered, primarily, as a protective device.

a filter to retain larger pieces while smaller pieces and liquids pass through

a device that is usually made up of a single layer of course gauze, and a very course wire mesh

a form of sieve in the pipeline

a device for withholding foreign matter from a flowing liquid or gas

screens to filter out impurities from the pulp.

Also called a sieve, is a kitchen utensil with a perforated bottom used to strain liquids or semi-liquids, or to sift dry ingredients such as flour or icing sugar.

A wire or metal guard used to keep debris from clogging pipe or other openings made for removing water; used in pumps and on suction hose to keep foreign material from clogging or damaging pumps.

A device used to remove solid particles from a liquid.

Wire gadget with a spring around it that fits over the top of your mixing container so you can strain ice or pulp when pouring into a serving glass.

A device installed in the inlet of a pump to prevent foreign particles from damaging the internal parts.

Filtration mechanism for the removal of coarse particles from liquid substances. Strainers usually function as an initial filtration method used prior to other filters that remove smaller particles.

steel filter that serves for holding back the ice when, from the mixing glass or from the boston, the cocktail is poured in the glasses Tails of distillation - they are the last fractions of the distil obtained by still (or pot still) and separated by the "heart of the distil" because they contain products of high point of ebullition (over 100° Cs) with an unpleasant taste. They will come subsequently reunited to the heads and will be redistilled to recover the ethyl alcohol remaining.

A fabricated assembly of woven wire cloth (wire mesh) designed for the removal of foreign particles from a stream of liquid or gas.

A basket in some spa pumps that collects debris which could restrict water flow. Super Chlorinate: Using high amounts of chlorine to break down odorous chloramines (see Shock).

A fitting at the end of the suction hose that prevents solids larger than the pump is capable of passing from entering.

When fitted inside the body of the nozzle, a strainer removes (by means of a wire mesh) foreign particles contained in the fluid. Thus preventing the orifice from becoming clogged. Strainers are used in nozzles with a very small flow rates and comparatively small orifices.

1) A Large metal device attached to the end of a Suction hose that prevents debris from entering the hose or the pump. 2) A stationary accumulation of debris in a moving body of water.

A device, such as a filter, to retain solid particles allowing the liquid to pass.

A device for straining, filtering or sifting, by trapping solids from fluids. A colander or sieve.

A coarse filter element (pore size over approximately 40 µm)

any obstacle on the river that allows water to pass through but not boats and people. Most common obstacles are downed trees, logjams, and boulder piles.

an object below the surface of a river , usually a tree or branch which allows water to flow, but tends to stop large objects

an obstruction, like a tree or fence in the water, that allows water to pass through but holds and traps boats and boaters

an obstruction, usually a tree branch, that is lodged in the river but allows water to flow past

a submerged tree or branches under the surface of moving water

Device used to trap foreign materials, preventing blockage of the water passageway in urinals.

Brush or trees which have fallen into a river, usually on the outside of a bend. Current may sweep through, but the obstruction will stop a craft. Can be deadly.

An opening or openings where water can flow through, but a solid object such as a person or boat cannot. Usually formed by trees on the banks, or by rocks on top of one another with water flowing through them. One of the most dangerous river features.

an obstacle, such as a tree, that lets water flow freely through it but catches and entraps swimmers, rafts, & debris.

Obstruction in the water that allows the current to pass through but stops any object floating or submerged. Common after heavy rain. Potentially a very dangerous hazard.

current clogged with tree branches or debris that allows the water to flow through but could pin you or your boat. Very Dangerous

Anything that allows water to pass through but keeps solid objects, such as boats and paddlers from doing so. Especially common types of strainers are trees ( especially on the outside of bends).

Wood frames for the support of canvas or other textile that do not have expandable corners. Similar frames having expandable corners, called stretchers.
