SERVICE RECOMMENDATIONS
These
strainers are recommended for use under moderate pressure and
temperature conditions. With clean baskets, they offer excellent
protection to pumps, valves, traps and other mechanical equipment.
Self cleaning is done by opening the valve or plug connected to
the blowoff outlet.
CONSTRUCTION
The
body is constructed form Cast Iron (ASTM A126-B). The cover is
HRS plate and the gasket is non-asbestos. All sizes feature a
bolted cover with easy basket removal. Bodies can be supplied
with tappings for pressure gauges.
BASKETS
Sizes
3" & above feature slant baskets which allow for a straight
through flow and results in extremely low pressure drop.

steam service, we normally furnish .045 perf up through
the 10" pipe size. Above 10", we furnish 1/16"
perf.
For
water service, we normally furnish 1/16" perf for
