STRAINERS

An official definition adopted by the Fluid Controls Institute is : "A closed vessel with cleanable screen element designed to remove and retain foreign particles. Note the term "foreign particles". Strainers do not necessarily remove only dirt. They take out material which is not wanted in the fluid and this can sometime be a valuable product which may be saved.

WHY STRAINERS & FILTERS ?

The problem of unwanted material in pipelines is a never ending one. Whether the flowing material as seawater, oil, paint or a variety of food or chemical products, there is often something present that can cause trouble. Dirt, foreign matter, or even clumps of the product itself can clog or damage pumps, spray nozzles, condensers, and similar equipment. Sometime a finished product has to be rejected because of the presence of undesirable solid matter.

OPEN AREA RATIO

It is the ratio of the open area through the strainer basket to the cross sectional area of the pipeline. A well designed \ basket strainer should have an open ratio of at least 4 to 1. Anything less may cause excessive pressure drop. The ratio is calculated with a clean basket and as the basket begins to clog the ratio will drop. Unless there is a wide safety margin the area through the basket may quickly become smaller than the pipe area. This will reduce flow through the strainer and necessitate very frequent cleaning.
