Stainless Steel Y-type Strainer
Y-type strainers are utilized in various industrial processes involving steam, gas, or liquid. Their design allows for the filtration of the working medium from particles that could adversely affect the quality of the final product or even damage the entire installation during further production stages. In the chemical, district heating, or energy industries, Y-type filters are undoubtedly essential. The construction of this valve enables the separation of unwanted elements from the working medium. Materials used in the production of such tools ensure high durability, resilience, and resistance to various external stimuli.
GTM Process Valves offers Y-type strainers distinguished by high-quality craftsmanship, translating into their effectiveness and durability. Thanks to this, they can easily handle continuous contact with almost any working medium. The strainer itself exhibits high corrosion-resistant or acid-resistant properties – the use of different types of steel in the filter mesh makes it an exceptionally robust component of the entire structure. Furthermore, it is worth noting the diversity of connections offered for these types of elements. Therefore, they can be efficiently utilized in various systems with diverse characteristics.
The application of stainless steel Y-type strainers
Stainless steel Y-type strainers are widely utilized in the fields of chemistry, energy, and district heating, but their capabilities extend beyond these sectors. The application of stainless steel Y-type strainers can effectively cover any production line that requires particle filtration. Their primary function is to filter the working medium, which can be gas, steam, or liquid (including aggressive liquids, acids, or contaminated water). This functionality ensures that the final product obtained within a given process maintains high quality, and the overall system remains in optimal condition.
Why it’s worthwhile to equip your installation with a stainless steel Y-type strainer?
Undesired particles can damage the entire installation, which is why the use of strainers is so crucial. The inclusion of a gasket made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) ensures that the Y-type strainer provides excellent protection against leaks. PTFE exhibits high resistance to extreme temperatures as well as outstanding chemical resistance.
A Y-type strainer serves as an excellent complement to any installation dealing with demanding working mediums. Due to the use of materials such as EN-GJ-250 cast iron, carbon steel GP240GH, and stainless steel, it can handle various conditions, even in extreme temperatures.
