Barnacles, biofilm, algae, and unwanted marine growth in sea strainers and seawater intake lines is constant problem. As soon as you clean your sea strainer or acid descale seawater lines, marine organisms begin growing again. This biofouling threatens the performance of seawater-cooled equipment in your vessel. Blockages caused by barnacles and mussels can result in air conditioner overheating, high-pressure fault (HPF) alarms, and failure at the worst possible time.
ElectroStrainer Pro handles the heavy lifting, offering a simple, practically maintenance-free way to maintain your seawater cooling systems. When seawater enters ElectroStrainer Pro, it passes through a series of electrified titanium plates that are coated with a rare earth metal oxide catalyst. An electrochemical reaction generates a safe and effective low level of chlorine. This precise level of chlorine is diffused throughout the sea strainer basket and carried through the seawater lines, preventing marine growth and keeping your air conditioners, chillers, and refrigerators blowing cool air.
Instead of peering through a dirty site glass or opening the strainer and making a mess in your engine room, simply look at ElectroStrainer Pro’s digital display. ElectroStrainer Pro tells you exactly how much seawater is flowing through your seawater system in real time, assuring you it’s generating chlorine and protecting your boat’s cooling systems. ElectroStrainer Pro automatically alerts you if the internal strainer basket needs attention with its Smart Strainer Flow Alert™ feature.
The Smart Strainer Flow Alert feature allows the user to set a minimum seawater flow rate threshold value. If the seawater flow rate drops below the minimum value for a period of time, STRAINER will flash on the display.

There’s no reason to enter the hot engine room. ElectroStrainer Pro’s digital Remote Display can be viewed from the helm or comfort of your salon.

Unlike traditional sea strainers, which require constant cleaning, ElectroStrainer Pro offers a virtually maintenance-free way to manage your seawater cooling system. If the system detects a decrease in flow rate, then the STRAINER indicator will flash on the display, alerting you that the strainer basket needs attention. The best part is there’s no scheduled maintenance, no additives and no chemicals required.
ElectroStrainer Pro generates a consistent, low level of chlorine – lower than you’ll find in tap water, but enough to keep barnacles at bay. No chemical additives or acids are required.
Continuous, low-level chlorination is a proven anti-fouling treatment that controls the growth of a range of marine organisms, including barnacles and biofilms. At such low levels, chlorine is not harmful to the environment. Chlorine has a very short half-life in seawater with two-thirds decomposing back into common salt (sodium chloride) and water in about one minute. The seawater that exits the boat is not harmful to the environment.

Descaling your seawater lines and air conditioner with strong acids is a temporary fix to the never-ending problem of unwanted marine growth. As soon as you’re done descaling with Barnacle Buster®, Rydlyme Marine®, and other acids, then biofouling resumes when you turn your air conditioner seawater pump on.
Biofouling requires air conditioners to overwork, shortening their lifespan. According to Barnacle Buster®, “as growth forms inside the condenser coil, heat transfer will be greatly decreased causing efficiency to drop. This will cause the compressor to work much harder, thus increasing amperage draw.”
Barnacle Buster® and RYDLYME® are made of phosphoric acid (<10%) and hydrochloric acid (5-9%). The pH for Barnacle Buster is between 1.0 – 1.25, which means it is considered a "strong acid”. According to RYDLYME®, the descaler “is non-corrosive, but the application of RYDLYME may expose pre-existing under deposit corrosion (pitting, holes or similar damage) that can result in leaks in pipes, equipment or systems.”
