Nds 1800-10 Plastic Foot Valve Screen 1 Inch Mipt

Product Description

The NDS 1800-10 is a plastic foot valve screen designed to protect foot valves from debris ingestion in water supply and pump intake applications. Threaded with a 1-inch male iron pipe thread (MIPT) connection, it installs at the base of a suction line where the foot valve sits submerged. The screen filters out particulate matter that would otherwise damage pump internals or cause valve fouling. At 0.04 pounds, it is a lightweight component handled by plumbers and irrigation technicians during new installations and service calls alike.

This foot valve screen is used in residential and light commercial water supply systems, including well pump suction lines, irrigation pump intakes, and sump or transfer pump installations. It fits at the inlet end of a foot valve assembly to keep sediment, debris, and organic material from entering the suction piping. It is commonly installed in below-grade pump pits, cisterns, or open water sources where particulate contamination is a concern.

Key Features

• 1-inch MIPT threaded connection for direct installation on standard foot valve bodies
• Plastic construction resists corrosion in wet and submerged environments
• Lightweight at 0.04 pounds for easy handling during installation
• Screens debris at the pump intake to protect valve internals and pump components

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service screen for 1-inch MIPT foot valve assemblies used in residential and light commercial pump suction line applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers or irrigation technicians. Shut off and lock out the pump before servicing any suction line component. Thread the screen onto the foot valve inlet hand-tight and verify a secure connection before submerging the assembly. Follow IPC and local plumbing code requirements for suction line piping and pump intake installations.
