Magnetic Y-Strainers

Magnetic Y-Strainers are recommended for low-flow applications with space restrictions.

Description

This filter employs a magnetic filter element and mesh screen. Systems are designed for the application's fluid, flow volume, viscosity, mobility, and mounting requirements. Y-strainer designs are offered for cryogenic, high-pressure, and high-temperature applications.

Benefits

Consumables

Requires minimum consumables.

High Holding Capacity

High holding capacity allows for extended planned maintenance periods.

Efficiency

Magnetic Filter Element

Ferrous Contamination

Captures ferrous wear particles down to 4 µ and below with up to 95+% efficiency.

Non-Ferrous Contamination

Non-ferrous particles are magnetically captured because of cross contamination from static charge or embedded ferrous particles

Operating

Install the magnetic Y-strainer inline with the magnetic filter element on top for easy access when cleaning. For any installations on suction applications, the mesh screen must be removed to prevent cavitation.

Magnetic Filter Element

Remove the contamination with a lab cloth/non-fiber cloth that absorbs the contamination. Save the cloth in a sample bag to send for analysis.

Mesh Screen

Clean with solvent, soap and water, a parts washer, or ultrasonically, then air dry. Use the magnetic filter element as a predictive maintenance tool by removing contamination with a lab cloth or rubber glove and depositing it into a sample jar. Send the contamination for analysis to determine the source of equipment component wear and prevent system failure.
