Basket Type Strainers are widely used to remove foreign particles & debris wherever liquid flow. They provide an extremely means to upgrade liquid quality, protect costly equipment's like bearings, valves, pumps, burners, spray nozzles, and condensers etc. Practically there is no difference between strainer & filter. Strainer is a course filter. Any device, which removes particles, which are visible to naked eye, the same is known as strainer. Device, which removes particles, which are not, visible to naked eye, the same is known as filter. General rule says that a device, which removes particles coarse than 200 mesh (74 microns) is known as strainer & a device, which removes particles finer than 200 mesh is known as filter. Basket Strainers are also used in conjunction with a filter by installing strainer directly ahead of filter, the large heavy particles are arrested by the strainer, there, by reducing frequency of replacing element of a filter. Basically there are two types of Strainers Basket Strainers & 'Y' Strainers. 'Y' Strainers are so called because of their shape. 'Y' Strainers are generally used with steam & gases & in case where the necessary for cleaning is infrequent. Basket Strainer are generally used with liquids & where regular frequent cleaning is needed. Basket Strainers hold considerably more material than 'Y' Strainers and they offer less pressure drop then 'Y' Strainers both factors are of more importance in liquid flow then any steam or gaseous flow. For safeguarding lubricated equipment from abrasive, ferrous particles, Grotto end inlet basket can be furnished with a powerful permanent magnet assembly. This magnet effectively removes even microscopic, ferrous from the liquid. | BASKET STRAINERS
