Y Strainer Filter with Great Pressure Resistance Performance

Y strainer filter is mainly constructed of stainless steel, carbon steel, titanium and other metal alloy perforated metal or woven mesh by welding process. It is an important filter unit for Y type strainers and helps to remove impurities in the medium (gas, steam or liquid) and ensure the normal operation of valves and equipment. It features large filter area, high filter rating, simple structure and long service life, and is widely used in petrochemical, petroleum, natural gas, food & beverage, sewage treatment, etc. Y strainer filters are generally designed to be cylinder shape, or customized upon request.

Various Y strainer filters are neatly placed.

Category

Y strainer filter is mainly constructed of stainless steel, carbon steel, titanium and other metal alloy perforated metal or woven mesh. It can be designed with or without edges or customized upon request.

Single layer perforated metal

Suitable for pipeline system with certain pressure to remove large particulate impurities.

Single layer woven mesh

Suitable for pipeline systems with low pressure yet high filter rating requirements.

Woven mesh + perforated metal double layer

Suitable for pipeline systems with high pressure and fine filtration demands.

Working Principle

Y strainer filter is a small device installed in Y strainers that is used to remove solid particles in the liquid and get clean liquid. Meanwhile, it protects the normal operation of the equipment. When the Y strainer filter needs cleaning, just take out the detachable strainer filter, clean and reload it. So, it is easy to use and maintain.
