Design and Construction

The Y Type strainer features an angular body configuration that allows debris to collect in the strainer element without significantly restricting the flow path. This design ensures stable pressure drop characteristics while maintaining effective removal of suspended solids from the process fluid.

The strainer element available in perforated or wire mesh form is housed within a pressure-retaining body and can be easily removed for cleaning or replacement. Depending on size, pressure class, and service conditions, Y Type strainers are manufactured using casting, forging, or fabrication processes to achieve optimal mechanical strength, dimensional accuracy, and long-term reliability.

In addition to standard designs, we also manufacture fabricated jacketed strainer variants for applications requiring thermal insulation, heating, or cooling of the process fluid. Fabricated variants of these strainers can also be supplied with PTFE, Rubber, or Glass Flakes Epoxy (GFE) lining for enhanced corrosion resistance in aggressive process fluids.
