Basket Strainer is a closed vessel with cleanable screen element designed to remove and retain foreign particles down to 0.001 diameter from various flowing fluids.
The problem of unwanted materials in a pipeline is a never-ending one. Whether the flowing material is seawater, oil, or a variety of chemical products, there is often something present that cause trouble. Dirt, foreign matter or even clumps of the product can clog or damage pumps, spray nozzles, condensers, and similar equipment. Sometimes a finished product has to be rejected because of the presence of undesirable solid matter.
Basket Strainers remove unwanted particles from the pipeline flow. Furthermore they are relatively inexpensive compared to the equipment they protect or compared to the down time, products or loss or production if they were not doing their job in a piping system.
Basket Strainer are an important part of desalination equipment where they take out dirt, or unwanted matter from the water before it is treated for salt removal. Spent wastewater from industrial use is frequently passed through a basket strainer to take out material that should not go into sewer or waterway.
Basket strainer are used in the marine industry for many purposes. One of the most important is handling sweater in cooling lines, fire control lines, sanitary lines and general cleaning lines. This water comes from outside the ship and can contain a good deal of undesirable matter. Strainers are also used on board ships to clean fuel, hydraulic and lubrication systems.
By installing Basket Strainer, expensive equipment is often protected against damage from scale, dirt, by-products etc. Heat Exchangers, Condensers, and pumps use strainers on their intake sides. Flow meters and spray nozzles are kept from clogging by basket strainer.
Basket Strainers clean unwanted materials from petroleum products ranging from crude oil to gasoline. A specific case is fuel oil that can contain gums or tars or other dirt that can plug the nozzles of an oil burner. Every industrial oil burner is equipped with a basket strainer to screen these out. Strainers are used in similar ways in refineries and oil handling operation to keep undesirable material away from pumps, meters and other equipment.
The flowing should be considered before buying;

The flowing should be considered before buying;
- Are the seats properly machined to eliminate bypassing of dirt?
- Is the body strong enough to resist mechanical shock and avoid accident?
- Are blow-off connections heavy enough to avoid leakage of failure?
- Is the screen made properly to eliminate possibility of collapse?
- Ratio should be minimum3. The larger volume will afford a slower clogging process that result in a longer period between cleanouts.
