Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is the difference between a basket strainer and a Y-type strainer?
Basket strainers have a larger holding capacity and are better suited for high-flow or dirty applications, while Y-type strainers are more compact for smaller particles. Our basket design offers easy cleaning without removing the entire unit from the line. -
Can I use this strainer for steam service?
Yes, but ensure the gasket and temperature rating are appropriate. The standard 304 stainless steel body can handle up to 200°C, but for steam above 150°C, we recommend PTFE or metal gaskets (available upon request). -
What is the standard pressure drop across the 20 mesh element?
Pressure drop depends on flow rate, viscosity, and particle loading. Typically, for clean water at recommended flow, the initial drop is less than 0.5 psi. We can provide detailed calculations for your specific conditions. -
Do you offer strainers with finer mesh, like 40 or 100 mesh?
Absolutely. We can customize the filter element from 10 mesh to 100 mesh (or even micron-rated woven wire cloth). Please contact us with your filtration requirements. -
How do I clean the basket strainer?
Simply shut off the line, remove the cover bolts, lift out the basket, and rinse or brush off debris. The basket is reusable. For heavy build-up, we recommend periodic cleaning intervals based on your fluid quality. -
Are these strainers suitable for drinking water systems?
Yes, 304 stainless steel is food-grade and safe for potable water. However, if you need certification like NSF/ANSI 61, please inquire for specific documentation. -
What is the lead time for custom sizes?
Typically 7–15 working days for standard sizes, and 15–25 days for custom orders, depending on quantity and complexity. We keep a stock of popular sizes (DN50–DN150) for quick shipment. -
Do you provide a warranty?
Yes, we offer a 12-month warranty against manufacturing defects. Our after-sales team is available to support you with any technical issues.
