SERVICE
RECOMMENDATIONS:
These
strainers are designed for use in fluid handling systems
where the flow cannot be shut down for basket cleaning
such as cooling water, compressors, condensers, fire lines,
fuel lines, lubrication systems, and salt and fresh water
systems. Not recommended for steam service.
FEATURES:
These
Duplex strainers use 3-way balls as diverter valves. This
design with its PTFE seats provides bubble-tight shut-off,
eliminating the costly and potentially dangerous leakage
into the chamber not in use. The two part body casting
allows true-inline maintainability. All parts of the valve
are accessible after removing the basket chamber without
removing the strainer from the line. A gear operator is
standard on the 4" & 6" units, allowing
for a very easy change over. On models with a handle,
the chamber in use is covered by the handle preventing
accidental opening of the pressurized chamber and allowing
easy access to the side to be serviced. The large open
area ratio of the basket assures a minumum pressure drop
across the unit. Perforated stainless steel (304) baskets
are standard on all models, with mesh lining optional.
