Valvesonly is a leading Strainer Manufacturer in USA. A strainer is a mechanical device designed to remove solid particles from liquid or gas streams, preventing them from entering downstream equipment or processes. This filtration process is crucial in various industries, including water treatment, oil and gas, chemical processing, and food and beverage. Strainers operate on the principle of selectively allowing fluids to pass through while capturing and retaining unwanted particles. The primary purpose of a strainer is to protect sensitive components such as pumps, valves, and other equipment from damage caused by contaminants, thus ensuring the efficient and reliable operation of industrial systems.

Parts:
•    Housing
•    Straining Element
•    Basket or Cylinder
•    Cover or Lid
•    Inlet and Outlet Connections
•    Drain or Blowdown Connection
•    Vent

Operation of a strainer:
As the fluid passes through the strainer, solid particles are intercepted by the screen or straining element, preventing them from reaching downstream components. Over time, the accumulated debris can obstruct the flow, leading to a drop in efficiency. Regular maintenance, including cleaning or replacing the straining element, is essential to ensure optimal performance. Strainers come in various types, including simplex strainers for intermittent maintenance and duplex strainers that allow continuous operation while one side is being serviced. Overall, the effective use of strainers plays a critical role in safeguarding industrial processes and equipment by maintaining fluid quality and system integrity.
