Flanged Y-Type Strainer
The flanged Y-type strainer is a filter that protects pumps, heat exchangers, control valves and steam traps by retaining solid particles in a stainless steel screen on large-diameter lines. The Y body provides low pressure drop; the screen is cleaned by opening the bottom cap, and the bleed plug allows venting without stopping the line.
Supplied in cast iron PN16 (300 °C), ductile iron PN16 / PN25 (200–350 °C), steel cast PN40 / PN63 (450 °C) and AISI 316 stainless (PN16, -10 / +180 °C) body options between DN15 and DN600. Standard screen mesh opening is 1 mm for DN15–DN50, 1.25 mm for DN65–DN80, 1.6 mm for DN100–DN300; steam 0.25 mm and magnetic cap options are available.
