Strainers are vital components in fluid systems, designed to remove debris and protect equipment. Basket strainers feature a basket-shaped filter that offers a large filtration area, making them ideal for high-flow applications like chemical processing and wastewater treatment. Y-strainers, shaped like a "Y," are compact and perfect for inline use, effectively filtering particles from liquids and gases, often found in HVAC and oil and gas systems. T-strainers have a "T" design, suitable for horizontal pipelines, allowing efficient filtration with minimal pressure loss and easy maintenance. Finally, conical strainers boast a conical shape that facilitates debris collection and easy cleaning, making them commonly used in fuel and oil systems.
