ABSTRACT:
A strainer for filtering a pumped fluid has a strainer body having a wall provided with fluid inlet perforations in an outer surface, a surface cleaning scraper or brush in juxtaposition with the outer surface, and a drive operatively connected to the surface cleaner for moving the surface cleaner over the outer surface for removing accumulated debris. At least one nozzle is oriented towards the cleaned outer surface of the strainer body for directing a jet of liquid against the perforations to assure that the perforations are clear. The strainer is thus self-cleaned continuously without requiring a back wash operation, allowing continuous flow through the strainer.
