Strainers
Strainers
Solid contamination is detrimental to the performance and life of fluid transfer systems. It is
therefore extremely important to remove solid contamination from fluid transfer systems. This will
protect the pipeline and all the associated equipment / instruments on the line which are many a
times sensitive to dirt.
Corrosion deposits, scaling, welding slag, sealing compounds as well as several other materials
are trapped and prevented from causing
system contamination and subsequent
problems and failures.
Straining is a process of directly intercepting solid particles when the fluid passes through the
strainer element / perforated screen. The strainer screen perforations / mesh size are small
enough to prevent passage of solid contamination / dirt to the downstream.
The ECON bronze strainers have a strong stainless steel wire mesh screen / element insert. The
holes on the wire mesh are of size 0.8 mm. The larger size ‘ECON’ Cast Iron strainers have a
solid stainless steel perforated screen / element with a hole size of 1.5 mm.
The pressure drop through the ECON strainers is minimized due to its streamlined flow design.
The strainers have a compact design. Also suitable for saturated steam service. ECON strainers
can be supplied with a drain plug fixed on the strainer bottom cover as an additional / optional
feature where requested.
Note: It is extremely important that the Strainer screen is cleaned at frequent intervals in order to
avoid damage to screens / elements due to choking (dirt build-up). This will also help to get a
better life from the Strainer screen / element. We strongly advice that the Strainer screen are
cleaned at regular intervals especially during initial flushing and start up.
