Key Applications
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between standard and heavy pattern Y-strainers?
Heavy pattern Y-strainers have thicker body walls and a larger screen housing compared to standard pattern strainers. This provides greater structural strength for higher pressure applications (PN25 vs PN16), larger filtration area to reduce pressure drop, and improved durability in demanding industrial environments with frequent thermal cycling or water hammer conditions.
Where are heavy pattern bronze Y-strainers used?
Heavy pattern bronze Y-strainers are specified for industrial process water systems, high-pressure steam lines, hydraulic systems, and applications where the strainer may experience frequent thermal cycling or pressure surges. The heavier construction reduces the risk of fatigue failure in critical service.
