Amerigo manufactures BASKET TYPE STRAINERS in India which are supplied to various industries as per it's applications.The Basket Type Strainers are ideally suited for a wide range of industrial applications. The Basket strainers, also known as bucket strainers, are used to remove larger particles and debris from liquids to protect downstream equipment like pumps and valves, and are commonly found in industrial applications like water treatment, power generation, and food processing.
Features of Basket Type Strainers:
● Protects pumps, valves, and meters from damage by filtering out debris in pipelines.
● Removes dirt, leaves, and other impurities in water purification systems.
● Prevents clogging in fuel lines, refineries, and lubrication systems.
● Ensures product purity by straining unwanted particles from ingredients and fluids.
● Filters out contaminants to maintain product integrity in drug manufacturing.
● Prevents blockages by filtering corrosive and viscous fluids in chemical plants.
● Protects heat exchangers and cooling towers by removing debris from cooling water circuits.
● Used in seawater intake systems to prevent fouling of pumps and engines.
● Filters fibers and solid particles from paper pulp and wastewater streams.
● Used in coolant and lubrication systems to enhance vehicle performance.
Specs of Basket Strainers:
1. Material Body : Cast iron, ductile iron, carbon steel, stainless steel, bronze, etc.
Screen: Stainless steel, perforated metal, mesh-lined perforated plate.
2. Size & Connection : Pipe Diameter: Typically ranges from 1/2” to 24” or larger. End Connection: Flanged (ANSI, DIN), threaded (NPT, BSP), or welded.
3. Pressure Rating : ANSI Class 150, 300, 600, 900, or higher, depending on material and design. Typical range: 10 to 150 bar (150 to 2200 psi).
4. Temperature Range : Varies based on material (e.g., stainless steel up to 800°F (427°C)).
5. Filtration Level : Screen Perforation: 1 mm to 10 mm (standard). Mesh Lining: 20 to 400 mesh (finer filtration).
6. Flow Capacity & Pressure Drop : Dependent on strainer size, perforation size, and debris load. Typically designed for a low-pressure drop (0.1–0.5 bar at clean condition).
7. Drain & Blow-Off Connections : Equipped with a drain plug or valve for easy cleaning.
8. Basket Design : Single or double basket (for continuous operation). Easy removal for maintenance.
