Product Specifications

Technical details and manufacturing context for Basket Body

Definition

The basket body is the primary structural component of a strainer basket, forming the rigid framework that contains the filtering elements. It provides the necessary mechanical strength to withstand fluid pressure and operational stresses while maintaining the shape and integrity of the filtration assembly. The body typically features openings or mesh sections that allow fluid to pass through while retaining solid particles. In industrial applications, the basket body is designed to integrate with standard piping systems, with nominal diameters ranging from DN50 to DN300, and is available in stainless steel grades 304 or 316L, the latter being suitable for corrosive media. The operating pressure range is 1.0 to 1.6 MPa, and the operating temperature range is -20°C to 120°C, with higher temperatures requiring special gaskets. Wall thickness varies from 3 to 10 mm, and surface roughness ranges from Ra 0.8 to 3.2 μm, with smoother finishes for sanitary applications. Flow capacity is typically 10 to 200 m³/h, and filtration rating is 0.5 to 5 mm, depending on the mesh opening. The weight of the basket body ranges from 5 to 50 kg, varying with size and material. Flange standards include PN10 and PN16, and all parameters must be verified against the specific model and application. The basket body is manufactured according to relevant standards such as GB/T 9119 for flanges, and ASTM A240 for material grades. These standards serve as procurement references and do not guarantee compliance. For accurate selection, engineers must confirm the exact dimensions, pressure ratings, and material compatibility with the legal manufacturer or supplier.

Working Principle

The basket body functions as a containment vessel that houses the filter media. Fluid enters the basket, passes through the body's openings or mesh, and exits while contaminants are trapped within. The body's structural design ensures even distribution of fluid pressure and prevents collapse or deformation during operation. The openings are sized to match the filtration rating, allowing particles larger than the specified size to be retained. The body must withstand the operating pressure and temperature without failure, and its material must be compatible with the fluid being processed. Regular inspection is necessary to detect wear, corrosion, or deformation that could compromise filtration efficiency or structural integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials are available for the basket body?

The basket body is available in stainless steel grades 304 and 316L, as listed in the directory. 316L is recommended for corrosive media. Always verify the material grade with the supplier for your specific application.

What are the standard flange sizes?

The nominal diameter ranges from DN50 to DN300, with flange standards PN10 and PN16. These are reference ranges; confirm the exact flange dimensions and pressure rating with the manufacturer.

How do I select the right basket body for my system?

Consider the operating pressure (1.0-1.6 MPa), temperature (-20°C to 120°C), flow capacity (10-200 m³/h), and filtration rating (0.5-5 mm). Also check material compatibility and surface roughness requirements. Verify all parameters with the supplier.

What maintenance is required for the basket body?

Regularly inspect for corrosion, deformation, or clogging. Ensure the filter media is intact and the body is clean. Replace worn parts as needed. Follow the manufacturer's maintenance guidelines.
