Brass Y Strainer

Y-Strainers are devices for mechanically removing unwanted solids from the moving water by means of a perforated or wire mesh straining element. They are used in pipelines to protect pumps, meters, control valves, regulators and other process equipment. They are very cost effective straining solutions in many applications. Where the amount of material to be removed from the flow is relatively small, resulting in long intervals between screen cleanings, the strainer screen is manually cleaned by shutting down the line and removing the strainer cap.
