How and how often should you clean the strainer basket that sits next to the sand filter?

There is a gauge on the filter that will indicate this. when as the pressure gets higher it indicates that there is a build up of dirt and the filter needs cleaning or backwashing. another indicator is if you note a marked reduction in suction at the static skimmer of the pool.

Is it ok to prime the pump with the filter running briefly so you can vacuum the waste after letting flocculate settle in the water for 12 hours or so?
I had to look up the word flocculate, it said to clump or mass togeather, yes just long enough to get the water going thru the filter with clumps or masses getting or blocking the strainer basket you have to shut the filter and clean the strainer basket out, put the strainer basket back in put water back in the strainer basket area, close or put the lid back on and turn the filter back on, you may get the filter running strong the first time but as the filter sand becomes more clogged or dirty, it may take several times of priming the pump to get good water flow,,as I read your question, again you have to shut the pump off which in turn stops the filtering process, you have to put water back into the inlet side to get the flow back this should take maybe 20 seconds if you run the pump to long you will burn the motor up In order to prime the pump it will have to be off.

What are the principles of basket type strainer selection and application range?
Basket type strainer selection principles. 1、Import and export passage diameter In principle, the import and export diameter of the strainer should not be smaller than the inlet diameter of the matching pump, generally consistent with the inlet pipe diameter. 2、Nominal pressure Determine the pressure level of the strainer according to the possible high pressure of the filtration line. 3、The selection of the number of holes Mainly consider the impurity particle size to be intercepted, according to the process requirements of the media process. Various specifications screen can intercept the size of the particle size of the following table "screen specifications". 4、strainer material. The material of the strainer is generally chosen to be the same as the connected process pipeline material, for different service conditions can be considered to choose cast iron, carbon steel, low alloy steel or stainless steel strainer material. 5、Strainer resistance loss calculation Water strainer, in the general calculation of the rated flow rate, the pressure loss of 0.52 ~ 1.2kpa. Basket type strainer is also relatively simple in terms of cleaning, the general workflow is like this, when the stream enters the basket type strainer than the screen after the larger particles are intercepted, and filtered cleaner stream will be discharged from the screen, need to clean, only need to remove the cartridge, a simple rinse can be, this efficient and simple basket type strainer, in This highly efficient and simple basket type strainer is widely used in petroleum, chemical, pharmaceutical, food, environmental protection and other industries.HUHANG TECHNOLOGY GROUP CO., LTD
