🔍 Key Concepts

• Cavitation in hydraulic pumps and why excessive suction vacuum is harmful • The purpose of suction strainers/filters and how they protect the pump • What is meant by a constant flow hydraulic system and why steady, non-aerated fluid supply is critical

💭 Think About

• Which option best protects the pump from cavitation and damage while still ensuring a steady supply of oil? • Does any option suggest operating the pump near its theoretical limits, and is that usually considered good design practice in marine hydraulics? • Do any options introduce air into the suction line or bypass filtration in a way that could harm the pump or system components?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which option keeps suction vacuum within a safe, moderate limit, not at a theoretical maximum • Check which arrangements avoid introducing air into the suction line and do not bypass filtration • Confirm which choice aligns with good practice: short, flooded suction, low suction lift, and proper filtration/straining before the pump
