Centrifugal and reciprocating pumps handling material containing solids should have permanent Strainers provided in the suction lines to the pump or in the vessel from which the pump takes suction. The free area of such Strainers should be not less than three times the cross-sectional area of the suction line. The location of permanent Strainers (as contrasted to the temporary cone type which is installed at a flanged joint) also merits attention.

This product is designed for remove foreign matter from pipe lines and provides protection for pumps, meters, valves, and other similar mechanical equipment, which is called as Strainer. "Y" Type Strainers are named after their shape and normally used for course filtration. But with large filtration area can be used with fine mesh also. The Strainer improves the clearance in the medium, and prolongs the life of valves; protect expensive pumps, meters and other equipments. It is suitable for water, Air, Gas, petroleum, steam and other fluids. A Y-strainer can be installed in either a horizontal or vertical position (Downward flow) with the screen elementpointing downward. This allows the strainer screen to collect material in the strainer at the lowest point of the screen.

"A closed vessel with cleanable screen element designed to remove and retain foreign particles down to 0.001 inch diameter from various flowing fluids."

A filter is a device that removes particles from a given liquid or gas. It includes a disposable medium for removing particles of specified micron sizes.

Simply stated, a Strainer is also a filter; however, it uses a perforated plate or screen mesh to remove larger particles from a process stream. The major advantage of a Strainer is that it is reusable. There are three levels of straining a) coarse, b) medium, and c) fine.

Some typical Strainer opening or mesh sizes are provided by the table below for various equipment. The mesh sizes (or openings) are the usual maximums for normal operation. These opening sizes vary with the application, but should not exceed the value recommended for the particular type of equipment. The available pressure differential usually determines the minimum clear opening for screens.

Strainer - What does mesh size mean.. Figuring out mesh sizes is simple. All you do is count the number of openings in one inch of screen (in the United States, anyway.) The number of openings is the mesh size. So a 4-mesh screen means there are four little squares across one linear inch of screen. A 100-mesh screen has 100 openings, and so on. As the number describing the mesh size increases, the size of the particles decreases. Higher numbers equal finer material. Mesh size is not a precise measurement of particle size.

Strainer - How fine do screens get.. That depends on the wire thickness. If you think about it, the finer the weave, the closer the wires get together, eventually leaving no space between them at all. For this reason, beyond 325-mesh particle size is usually described in microns.

The material for the Strainer body (including bolting) should be equal to the material specified for the valves in the same service. The screen material generally should be the same as the valve trim (stainless steel for most services).

A Y-strainer screen can be cleaned by removing the plug in the bushing, cap or bolted cover allowing the strainer to drain the loose material inside the screen. If a blow-off valve is connected to the strainer it can be opened to achieve the same result as the above. The Y-strainer screen can also be cleaned by removing the bushing, cap or cover to access the screen element.

Basket strainers with a closed bottom basket can be cleaned by removing the cap or cover and pulling out the basket screen for service. If the strainer screen is bottomless the blow-off plug can be removed allowing it to be drained and cleaned like a Y-strainer.

Care should be taken in cleaning screens. After removing a screen, it should be soaked in a cleaning solution or cleaned by using a brush. Do not allow trapped material in the screen to harden, as it will be difficult to remove. A regular cleaning schedule is recommended to avoid screens from becoming clogged.

A pressure gauge installed before and after a strainer will indicate a pressure loss due to clogging. This can help in establishing a maintenance schedule for cleaning the strainer screen. Extra screens can useful in keeping the system operating during the cleaning process.

As with the tube-based procedure, 80 μL of ADE suspension (50 mg/mL in DW) and 100 μL of DMS solution (100 mg/mL in DW) were pipetted into a sample solution. With the 1 mL samples, the mixture was loaded into a 5 mL syringe and inverted twice. No extra incubation time was needed. An incubation time of 30 min was used for larger volume samples (5 to 50 mL). During incubation, the mixture was occasionally shaken by hand to disperse the sample. For the 50 mL samples as an alternative option, a rotating mixer (Topscien Instrument Co., Ltd., Ningbo, China) set to 99 rpm was used, with incubation for 30 min. After incubation, the mixture was passed through a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) syringe filter with 1.0 μm pores (Whatman, USA) and then washed with 1 mL of PBS, also using the syringe. The remaining solution in the filter unit was removed by pumping air through it with the syringe; this was repeated twice. NAs were extracted from the bacteria trapped on the filter by injecting a mixture of 20 μL of Proteinase K, 150 μL of in-house lysis buffer, 30 μL of lysozyme solution, and 10 μL of RNase-Free DNase solution. The mixture could fill most of the filter. Then, the filter was inverted and incubated either for 30 min at 56 °C for DNA or for 10 min at RT for RNA extraction. An empty syringe was used to pump air into the filter and the mixture was naturally removed from the filter. The filter was then washed twice with 1 mL of PBS followed by air. Finally, 100 μL of elution buffer was injected onto the filter and, after 1 min of incubation at RT, the elution buffer containing NAs was collected by pumping air and stored at −20 °C until needed. It should be noted that the use of diethylpyrocarbonate-treated water is not recommended for this method because it may disturb the reversible crosslinking-based RNA isolation process, and because the covalent bonds between the RNA and ADE make the RNA stable and resistant to the RNase. For robust testing, the 96-well filter plate was combined with ADE. The plates were purchased at Merck (MultiScreen Solvinert 96-Well Filter Plate; Merck, Darmstadt, Germany).

Strainer can be defined as a pipe fitting through which liquid is passed for purification, filtering or separation from solid matter; anything used to strain a liquid; any device functioning as a sieve or filter used to prevent solid bodies from mixing in a liquid stream or flowline.

Strainers arrest pipeline debris such as scale, rust, jointing compound and weld metal in pipelines, protecting equipment and processes from their harmful effects, thus reducing downtime and maintenance. Use of rightly selected strainers at correct locations (usually upstream) is a must to protect expensive and critical downstream equipment such as pumps, flow meters, steam traps, control valves etc.

In Y-type strainer the filter leg connects to the main pipe at a diagonal angle, giving the strainer its “y” shape, and hence its name. This type is commonly used in pressurized lines, steam, liquid or gas, but can also be applied in vacuum or suction situation.

A Y-strainer can be installed in either a horizontal or vertical position (Downward flow) with the screen element pointing downward. This allows the strainer screen to collect material in the strainer at the lowest point of the screen.

To service a basket type strainer, the cover can be removed so technicians get immediate access to the filtering element if it needs replacement (due to accumulated debris). When basket type strainers are used on steam systems, a significant amount of condensate may be formed. Consequently, strainers designed for use in steam systems usually have a drain plug, which can be fitted with a steam trap to remove the condensate.

These are formed by punching a large number of holes in a flat sheet of the required material using a multiple punch. The perforated sheet is then rolled into a tube and spot welded together. These are relatively coarse screens and hole sizes typically range from 0.8 mm to 3.2 mm. Consequently, perforated screens are only suitable for removing general pipe debris.

Fine wire is formed into a grid or mesh arrangement. This is then commonly layered over a perforated screen, which acts as a support cage for the mesh. By using a mesh screen, it is possible to produce much smaller hole sizes than with perforated screens. Hole sizes as small as 0.07 mm are achievable. Subsequently, they are used to remove smaller particles which would otherwise pass through a perforated screen. Mesh screens are usually specified in terms of ‘mesh’; which represents the number of openings per linear inch of screen, measured from the centre line of the wire.

A filter is a device that removes particles from a given liquid or gas. It includes a disposable medium for removing particles of specified micron sizes. All strainers are filters, but all filters are not strainers. A strainer is only one type of filter. Strainer uses a perforated plate or screen mesh to remove larger particles from a process stream. The major advantage of a Strainer is that it is reusable. The filter screen is only used once and must be changed when it clogs.

The main difference seems to be in diameter of the holes in the media screen also termed as mesh size in case of strainer. There is no hard and fast size division to define strainers from filters. Filters capable of removing particles as small as 1 μm are available

Another difference is resistance. Strainers normally present low resistance to liquid flow. The pressure drop across most strainers is relatively small compared with the pressure drop across thick media filters or membrane filters.

Another difference is the function. A strainer is used to protect other downstream equipment (e.g., pumps, instrumentation) from damage by rogue junk. A filter is employed to separate particles from the fluid.

Some displacement pumps can cope with a mixed phase supply without any damage or major loss in performance. Centrifugal pumps are not so robust and must be protected from solids. In this situation you’ll need to install a filter or strainer. Filters can create a large pressure drop and be responsible for cavitation and friction-loss. The filter screen should have at least three times the free area of the pipe cross-section. Use a differential pressure gauge across the screen to look out for any increased pressure drop before clogging problems arise. This will also help in the accurate assessment of NPSH-A.

Part of responsible homeownership includes, of course, regular home maintenance. And there are some tasks that, if deferred, can lead to a home system that’s inefficient and overworked, which can result in problems and expenses. One such task is changing the filter of the home’s HVAC system. It’s simple and inexpensive, and taking care of it at least every three months can me

Most homes have some sort of furnace or heat pump, and many of those homes (especially newer ones) have combined heating, ventilation and air-conditioning or HVAC systems. Each type uses some type of air filter or screen to prevent larger airborne particles (up to 40 microns) from entering the system and clogging sensitive machinery. A system that has a dirty filter can suffer from pressure drop, which can lead to reduced air flow, or “blow-out,” resulting in no air infiltration at all. Any of these conditions can cause the system to work harder to keep the home warm or cool (depending on the season and the setting). And any mechanical component that has to work harder to run efficiently puts undue stress on the whole system, which can lead to premature failure, resulting in repair or replacement.

Also, a dirty filter that’s exposed to condensation can become damp, which can lead to mold growth that can be spread throughout the home by the HVAC system. This can lead to serious health consequences, not to mention a compromised unit that will likely require servicing and may require replacement, depending on the severity of the moisture problem.

Most HVAC and furnace filters are disposable, made of biodegradable paper or similar media, and shaped in cells, screens or fins designed to trap as much airborne debris as possible. Filters can typically be purchased in economical multi-packs, and there are many types that will fit different models of furnace/HVAC units. It’s important to use the appropriate filter for your unit; using the wrong filter that doesn’t fit the unit properly can create the same types of problems as having a dirty filter. Your HVAC installer can show you where the filter goes and how to remove the old one and install a new one. Your unit may also have an affixed label with directions for easy filter replacement.

The filter of the unit, especially if it’s an HVAC unit that will tend to get nearly year-round use, should be changed by the homeowner at least every three months, but possibly more often.

Change the filter immediately if:The filter is damaged. Whether it happened inside the packaging or while being installed, a damaged filter that has bent fins, collapsed cells or holes will not work as well as an undamaged filter, especially if it allows system air to bypass the filter at any point.

The filter is damp. A filter affected by moisture intrusion, system condensation, or even high indoor humidity can quickly become moldy and spread airborne mold spores throughout the home via the ventilation system.

There is evidence of microbial growth or mold on the filter. Mold spores already infiltrating the home via the HVAC system are not only bad for the unit itself, but they can pose a health hazard for the family, ranging from an irritated respiratory system to a serious allergic reaction. The musty smell produced by a moldy HVAC filter is also unpleasant and may take a while to completely eradicate from inside the home. If you discover that you have moldy air filter, it’s important to have the cause investigated further. An InterNACHI inspector or HVAC technician can help determine the problem so that it doesn’t recur.

Follow the directions for your unit to make sure you’re installing the filter properly. For example, many filters use different colors for the front and back (or upstream and downstream flow) so that they’re not installed backwards.

Make sure there aren’t any gaps around the filter frame. If this is the case, you may have the wrong size filter, or the filter itself may be defective or damaged.

Note the date of filter replacement in a convenient location for the next time you inspect it. A filter that becomes dirty enough to change within a short period of time may indicate a problem with the unit or ventilation system, so monitoring how often the filter requires changing is important information for your technician to have.

Homeowners who take care of the easy task of changing their HVAC filter can help prevent system downtime and avoidable expenses, as well as keep their families living and breathing comfortably. Your InterNACHI inspector can provide more useful tips and reminders during your annual home maintenance inspection.
