Fabricated Y Strainer Pressure Drop — Liquids (Sizes 50-600mm)

Y-Strainers are devices for mechanically removing unwanted solids from liquid, gas or steam lines by means of a perforated or wire mesh straining element. They are used in pipelines to protect pumps, meters, control valves, steam traps, regulators and other process equipment. Y Type Strainers can be used in horizontal or vertical (downward) pipelines. A cylindrical perforated or mesh-lined screen within the strainer collects debris as the flow travels through the strainer.
Cleaning Y-strainers normally requires the removal of the screen from the strainer, but a blow-off drain valve can be used to increase the time between cleanings. Features of Y-strainers include large straining capacities, precision machined seats, a standard blow-off drain connection furnished with a plug on low pressure models, and many screen options. All cast iron and carbon steel units are epoxy painted to resist rust; all threaded and socket weld end connections have hex ends for easy installation. Many models have gauge taps as a standard feature. “LKS” Y-strainers are available in ANSI classes up to 2500.
