To operate the strainer as a closed loop recirculation line, you connect a supply to which component?

In the context of operating a strainer as a closed loop recirculation line, connecting a supply to a siphon is key. A siphon allows for the movement of water or another liquid from a source and enables the recirculation process effectively. When properly set up, the siphon creates a continuous flow, which is essential for maintaining the function of a strainer, as it helps to keep the system clear of debris and ensures efficient operation.

Using a siphon in this manner helps manage liquid levels and pressure within the system, making it a vital component in a closed loop recirculation setup. This ensures that the liquid being filtered through the strainer is continually refreshed, enabling better clean-up of particulates and enhancing overall efficiency.

In contrast, while the tank, pump, and hose can all play roles in a recirculation system, they do not directly facilitate the closed loop operation in the same streamlined way that a siphon does. The tank serves as a reservoir, the pump is for moving liquid, and the hose is merely a conduit for flow, but none of these components alone establishes the mechanism for continuous recirculation as effectively as a siphon would.
