Here's my situation.... I have a pair of 30 something year old Perko raw water strainers for my Perkins 6.354's....have found that one of them has a leaking cleanout/drain fitting on the bottom...and trying to adjust it...it crumbled, and the fitting on the opposite strainer is leaking as well.....
The replacement bottom plate for the Perko....is about $200.00 . Now, there are two other options... One is to purchase a pair of the same sized raw water strainers made by Buck Algonquin....each of which costs less than the part for the Perko....but looks identical....
Or, purchase two Vetus FTR330's that are all Polyethlene with a polycarbonate top....
OK, Vetus says the FTR330 has a flow rate of 38 GPM....but no other manufacturer gives any gpm flow rate....
I can't even find a gpm flow rate for the Jabsco 3193 raw water pump....
Does anyone have an idea what the maximum flow rate for the raw water pump on an 6.354 Natural is?? I don't want to put a filter with too small of a flow rate on.....
Thanks!
