Ask for use case, specification boundaries, supplier type, and RFQ preparation information for this product.
Strainer baskets can be made from stainless steel, carbon steel, plastic (PP, PVC), or brass. Material grades such as 304/316L are listed for corrosion resistance. Confirm the exact material and grade with the supplier for your application.
Mesh size determines the filtration fineness, ranging from 0.5 to 5.0 mm. Choose based on the particle size you need to remove. Verify the required mesh size with the manufacturer, as it affects pressure drop and efficiency.
The operating pressure range is 1.0–1.6 MPa, and temperature range is -40 to 85 °C. Exceeding these limits can cause failure. Always check the specific model's ratings with the supplier.
Monitor pressure drop across the basket. An increase indicates accumulation of contaminants. Clean or replace the basket when pressure drop becomes excessive or flow is reduced, following the manufacturer's maintenance guidelines.
