Suction hose 1" complete 10m - suction hose

Product detailed description

Suction hose systems are essential components in water supply and pump installations, particularly in rural or off-grid applications where water is drawn from natural sources. Installers working on irrigation systems, domestic water supply, or industrial pumping solutions often require a reliable and pre-assembled suction hose set to ensure efficient water intake without contamination or backflow. This 10m hose is commonly used in borehole or well pump systems, where it connects the pump to the water source and prevents sediment and debris from entering the pump system.

The hose is pre-assembled with all necessary components for immediate installation, reducing on-site assembly time and potential errors. It is particularly suited for use in environments where water quality is variable and requires filtration at the intake point. The system is designed for use with submersible or surface pumps that draw water from depths requiring a long intake line.

Technical parameters

EAN	8585054507191
Connection size	25mm - 1 inch
Weight	4 kg
Code	PR_22942

The hose is sized for 1 inch (25mm) connections, making it compatible with standard pump inlets and fittings. The length of 10m is suitable for moderate depth applications, and the inclusion of a strainer and check valves ensures the system can handle typical flow rates without requiring additional components. The brass fittings and stainless steel strainer are selected for their resistance to corrosion and mechanical wear, which is essential for long-term performance in water systems.

Installation and connection

Installation involves securing the hose to the pump inlet and extending it to the water source. The hose is pre-fitted with a brass coupling with a threaded connection, which should be tightened using a wrench. The stainless steel strainer is positioned at the end of the hose and should be placed just above the water source floor to prevent sediment intake. It is important to ensure that the hose is fully submerged and that the strainer is not obstructed by debris. Common installation mistakes include improper tightening of the threaded connections, which can lead to leaks, and incorrect positioning of the strainer, which can reduce water flow or allow sediment into the system.

Compatibility and accessories

This suction hose is compatible with standard 1 inch threaded pump inlets and is suitable for use with submersible or surface pumps. No additional components are required for basic installation, as the set includes all necessary fittings and accessories. The system is designed for standalone use and does not require supplementary filters or valves beyond those included in the package.

Technical background for designers

The suction hose operates by creating a pressure differential that draws water from the source into the pump system. The stainless steel strainer prevents large particles from entering the hose, while the brass check valves ensure unidirectional flow and prevent backflow when the pump is not in operation. The hose is constructed from durable materials that resist degradation from water exposure and mechanical stress. The system's efficiency depends on the correct positioning of the strainer and the absence of air leaks in the connections. The use of brass and stainless steel components ensures long-term reliability in environments with variable water quality.

Service and operation

Periodic inspection of the strainer and hose for blockages or wear is recommended to maintain system performance. The strainer should be cleaned if it becomes clogged with sediment, and the hose should be checked for signs of abrasion or damage. The threaded connections should be inspected for tightness and corrosion. No specific service intervals are provided in the product documentation, but routine maintenance is advised to ensure continued operation.

Frequently asked questions

Can the hose be cut to a shorter length?
Modifying the hose length is not recommended as it may affect the system's integrity and performance. The pre-assembled length is designed for optimal operation.

Is the hose suitable for use with surface pumps?
Yes, the hose is compatible with surface pumps and is designed for use in both submersible and surface pump systems.

Can the strainer be replaced separately?
The strainer is included as part of the set and is not sold separately. Replacement would require purchasing a new complete set.

What is the maximum depth for this hose length?
The 10m length is suitable for moderate depth applications. For deeper installations, longer hose sets may be required.
