Suction bellmouths are designed for use in ships' bilges and other such tank locations and help to maintain efficient suction during final stripping of liquid cargo tanks.
The suction bellmouth design prevents vortex and gas formation as well as minimizing Hydraulic loss while pumping liquids from holding tanks.
The suction bellmouth provides a 1.5:1 open area ratio to the pipe size while sitting on the bottom of the tank.
