“Y” Strainer
Before installing the “Y” strainer, ensure the pressure
rating is correct for the system . If the end connections are
threaded or designed for soldering or brazing, be sure the
piping is straight and not at an angle or offset. If the strainer
has flanged ends, be sure the flanges of the connecting
piping are square with the pipe so that no undue stress is
put on the strainer or piping when tightening the flange
bolts . Tighten in sequence, crossing to opposites .
For maximum efficiency, a differential pressure gauge
installed across the inlet and outlet will indicate pressure
loss due to clogging and may be used as a guide to
determine when cleaning is required . Normally, when
differential pressure reaches 5 - 10 psi, the screen must be
cleaned . If the strainer is equipped with a blow-down valve,
open and flush out until any sediment is removed. If the
strainer is not fitted for blow-down cleaning, (strainer must
be off line), remove the cover or cap and clean the screen.
Reinstall the screen in the strainer in the same position as
before and tighten the cover or cap . Replace the gasket
if necessary .
Keeping a spare, clean screen will minimize shut
down time .
Warning
Individuals performing removal and disassembly should be
provided with suitable protection from possibly hazardous
liquids . Note: Large size “Y” strainers are supplied with
Breech-Lok screens. To remove the screen, rotate the
screen 45 0 and the Breech-Lok will disengage. Minimum
60 mesh screen is required.
Basket Strainer
Installation
Before installing the simplex basket strainer, ensure
the pressure rating is correct for the system . If the end
connections are threaded, be sure the piping is straight and
not at an angle or offset. If the strainer has flanged ends, be
sure the flanges of the connecting piping are square with
the pipe so that no undue stresses are put on the strainer
or piping when tightening flange bolts. Tighten bolts in
sequence crossing to opposites .
Maintenance
For maximum efficiency, a differential pressure gauge
installed across the inlet and outlet will indicate pressure
loss due to clogging and may be used, as a guide, to
determine when cleaning is required . If the strainer is not
set up for backwash cleaning, remove the cover access to
the basket . After cleaning, replace the basket in the same
position as before and tighten the cover . Replace the gasket
or O-ring if necessary . Keeping a spare, clean basket will
minimize shut down time .
Warning
Individuals performing removal and disassembly should be
provided with suitable protection from possibly hazardous
liquids . Knob and clamp type quick opening covers should
not be used for high temperature service . Consult factory
for recommendations . Note: Minimum 60 mesh screen
is required.
Before installing the “Y” strainer, be sure its pressure rating is correct
for the system. If the end connections are threaded or designed for sol-
dering or brazing, be sure the piping is straight and not at an angle or
offset. If the strainer has flanged ends, be sure the flanges of the con-
necting piping are square with the pipe so that no undue stresses are
put on the strainer or piping when tightening flange bolts. Tighten in
sequence, crossing to opposites.

To remove screen, rotate screen 45°, Breech-lok will disengage.
Spare Parts
To order replacement screens or gaskets, which are the only items nor-
mally required, you should specify the following:
A. Size and model number of strainer or casting number as it appears
on the body of the strainer
B. Specify the type of service. For example: water, steam, gas, oil, air.
The working pressure and temperature of the system and the parti-
cle size to be strained out should also be specified.
