What is the main purpose of this drain cover?

Is this suitable for internal drains?

How often should I check the drain cover?
It is recommended to check the drain cover periodically, especially after periods of heavy leaf fall or rainfall, to clear any accumulated debris.
Troubleshooting
Cover does not sit securely
Ensure the drain hopper is clean and free of debris. Verify that the drain hopper is indeed round and approximately 6 inches in diameter. Check that the support legs are not obstructed.
Debris is still entering the drain
The cover may be dislodged or the debris may be small enough to pass through the grid openings. Ensure the cover is properly seated and check for any damage to the grid itself. For very fine debris, additional mesh might be required.
Water is pooling around the drain
Check if the drain cover is completely blocking water flow, which is unlikely given its design. The issue may be with the underlying drainpipe's capacity or blockage further down the system. Remove the cover to test water flow directly into the hopper.
