Strainers remove solids from a pipeline to protect downstream instrumentation, pumps, and valves. Selection considers mesh/screen size, body type (Y-type, basket, temporary conical), pressure class, and clean-out convenience. A blow-off or drain connection eases maintenance.
Q: What is a strainer used for?
A: A strainer protects downstream equipment such as pumps, meters, and control valves by capturing particulate debris from the flowing medium.
Q: What strainer types are common?
A: Common types include Y-strainers, basket strainers, and temporary cone/strainer elements used during commissioning.
Guidance reflects general engineering practice for strainers; confirm against the project specification and applicable standards before procurement.
