Features
● Used extensively to strain foreign matter from pipe lines and provide economical protection
for costly pumps, meters, valves and other similar mechanical equipment.
● Machined seats in both body and cap align and lock the screen in place to stop sediment
bypass.
●Gasketed cap is used for easy disassembly and assembly. Many others use Loctite, rendering
disassembly virtually impossible.
Self-Cleaning
● Self cleaning is accomplished by opening the plug or valve connected to the blowoff outlet.
Blowoff Outlets
● Outlets are NPT Tapped
● Not normally furnished with plug. Plug available, specify with order.
Capacity
● Generously proportioned bodies
● Open Area Ratio much greater than pipe size, ensure low pressure loss.
● Graphite gasketed cover for easy screen cleaning
●20 mesh screens standard to 2”; .045 perf 2-1/2” to 3”, others available
Maintainance on Spare Parts
To order replacement screens or gaskets, which are the only items
normally required, you should specify the following:
A. Size and model number of strainer or casting number as it appears on the body of the strainer
B. Specify the type of service. For example: water, steam, gas, oil, air. The working pressure and temperature of the system and the particle size to be strained out should also be specified.
