A Strainer is a fitting in the pipe in which the fluid passes through for purification, filtering and separation of solid and heavy matter in the pipeline.It does not allow large particles to enter the pipeline. They arrest materials such rust and weld metal in the pipeline thus protecting it from harmful substances. Using right strainers at right locations is a must to protect the system from harm.
Types:
• Y strainer
• T type or Basket type strainer
Y strainer:
In Y strainer, filter is connected to the main pipe at diagonal angle, giving the strainer the “y” shape. These strainers are commonly mostly used in steam, liquid or gas, but they can also be applied in vacuum or suction situation. They usually have lower dirt holding capacity when compared to the “T” type strainers. These strainers require frequent cleaning. It can be installed either in horizontal or vertical position.
T type or Basket Strainer:
The size of a T type strainer is larger than y type strainer. It can be installed only in horizontal pipelines. The dirt holding capacity in this strainer is greater than Y strainer. They are also available in Duplex style where it consists of two strainers and diverting valves. These strainers are suitable for robust chemical and abrasive applications.

Y Strainer manufacturer in USA:
Valvesonly is a reputed Y strainer Manufacturer in USA. A Y Strainer is mostly used in gas, liquids, pressurised systems. Y-Strainers are designed for applications which require little maintenance, cleaning and contain modest amounts of solid particles. In a Y strainer, the filter is connected to the main pipe at a diagonal angle, giving the strainer the “y” shape. They are commonly used in steam, liquid or gas, but can also be applied in vacuum or suction situation. They usually have lower dirt holding capacity than the “T” type strainers. They require frequent cleaning. They can be installed in either horizontal or vertical position.
Applications of Y Strainer:
In numerous industries, such as chemical processing, petroleum, power generation, and maritime, Y-Strainers are employed in a range of liquid straining applications to safeguard downstream process system components. Y-Strainers are commonly used in water handling applications to protect equipment from being damaged or blocked by undesirable sand, gravel, or other debris. They are mostly used in applications that deal with liquid and steam applications.
What is the function of a Y Strainer?
The simplest explanation for a Y Strainer's function is that it absorbs contaminated flow and cleans it before returning it to the source. Anything that isn't regarded worthy is kept and disposed of later. Here's a rundown of the many components that make the Y strainer work.
Description:
• Body Material: Cast iron, Cast steel (WCB, WCC, WC6, LCC, LCB), Stainless steel (SS304, SS316, A105, F304, F304L, F316, F316L).
• Class: 150-1500,
PN10 - PN100.
• Size: ½” to 32”.
• Connection type: Buttweld Y Strainer,
Flanged Y Strainer,
Socket weld Y Strainer.

Industries that can use Y Strainers:
• Y strainers are used in Oil industry.
• Y strainers are used in Petrochemical industry.

Advantages of Y Strainer:
• Used in various applications
• They can be installed vertically as well as horizontally
• This type of strainer is cost effective
• When compared to basket strainer Y strainers can resist higher pressure ranges.

Basket Strainer Manufacturer:
Valvesonly is the best Basket Strainer Manufacturer in USA. The size of a T type strainer is larger than y type strainer. It can be installed only in horizontal pipelines. The dirt holding capacity in this strainer is greater than Y strainer. They are also available in Duplex style where it consists of two strainers and diverting valves. These strainers are suitable for robust chemical and abrasive applications.

Types of basket strainer:
• Simplex basket strainer.
• Duplex basket strainer.
Simplex Basket strainer:
Simplex Basket strainers are used in pumps, pipelines and spray nozzels to avoid water flow problems. They reduce the need for washing frequently, saving money and time as well as reducing downtime.
Duplex basket strainer:
This strainer is constructed in such a way that it eliminates and restricts large debris and dirt particles. It is made up of two levels for Strainer Baskets. When the flow of a pipeline cannot be stopped when this strainer is used.
