ABOUT
Y-Strainers are the type of machine that is used for mechanically discarding waste solids from liquid, gas or steam lines by means of a pierce or wire mesh straining element. They are used in pipelines to protect pumps, meters, control valves, steam traps, regulators and other process equipment.
WORKING
Y-strainers are named for their Y-shaped design. They have a body that guards a unique designed mesh screen that filters service liquids . Other strainers use wedged wire elements or penetrate metal to filter particulates. The screening element has small openings that allow clean fluids to pass through.
Y-strainers are essential for any fluid application where fluid cleanliness is crucial . The cleanliness of service fluids affects the reliability and durability of mechanical systems in a piping system. Y-strainers can protect sensitive elements like diaphragm and solenoid valves.
Debris blocks ports of a solenoid valve and prevents diaphragm valves from full seating, causing minute leakages around them.
ADVANTAGE
● They are available in a variety of sizes and designs to meet the performance requirements of
different pipelines.
● Y-strainers can only perform their intended task if the screen is properly sized
● Engage a piping design expert when selecting Y-strainers for different applications.
● Various materials are used to fabricate Y-strainers to accommodate the operating conditions
of different processes.
● Y-strainers have seals to prevent media leakages.
● Achieving the desired performance characteristics of a Y-strainer does not conclude at the selection phase.
