Y Type strainers derive its name from the shape of its configuration that looks like “Y”. It is very useful when it comes to protecting pumps and compressors because the dirt or debris present in the latter is collected in the strainer without bargaining with the pressure drops. The Y type strainers are most suitable for horizontal and vertical pipelines where the debris is difficult to be removed from the liquid or gas. Found in thousands of pipelines, this strainer is the most economic and common for permanent use.
Cast Y Type Strainers are one of the most common strainers present in the pipelines to handle small particles of dust. It is suitable for removing the debris away from the pipeline in a systematic manner without causing any harm to the pipeline. As the name highlights, Cast Y Type strainers are basically made up of cast steel. Apart from it, stainless steel or alloy steel acts as the alternative for each other on several occasions. When it comes to dimensions of Cast Y Type strainers, its screwed ends/socket weld ends is 1/4 inch to 2 inches. Therefore, it has a compact size that can fit various types of pipelines comfortably. Pressure rating of Cast Y Type strainers is 150#. Acme Strainers are Sturdy Have Filtration area more than 4 times, wall thickness which is as per API 600 an the ease of installation it renders due to compact size and design.
Size: ¼”- 2” ( Screwed, Socket weld)
Options:
- Screwed Ends / Socket weld ends
- P Tapings/ Gauge
- Drain Valves
- Pleated Filter element
- Magnetic Screen Insert
Cast Iron Y Type Strainers are essential components in pipeline systems designed to remove debris, solid particles, and impurities from flowing liquids. The "Y" shape of the strainer body allows for efficient filtration, capturing unwanted particles and preventing them from damaging downstream equipment such as pumps, valves, and meters.
