Suction Diffusers/Flow Diverters

Save Space and Costs

Product Details

The American Wheatley suction diffuser/flow diverter is designed to reduce space and installation costs by replacing the 90° elbow, strainer, and stabilizing entry pipe on the suction side of the pump. It can be directly mounted in a horizontal or vertical position, and includes a separate fine mesh startup screen surrounding each perforated screen.

Our fabricated HVAC Suction Diffuser/Flow Diverter is a combination of a 3/16” stainless steel strainer and a 90° elbow in Class 125/150 Flanged Ductile Iron Body design to save space and money. The integral vanes maximize flow efficiencies into the pump and the strainer, offering pump protection. The bottom plug can be used as a blow-down connection or adapted to a magnetic plug. Additionally, the integral boss located at the bottom of the diverter can be adapted for use as a foot support.
