Duplex Basket Strainers

Duplex Basket strainers are a type of strainer used in horizontal pipework to filter solids from fluids. They are typically designed to allow 100% flow with little pressure drop, and can be maintained in situ due to their design containing valves allowing one side of the unit to be maintained without process stoppage.

Designs consist of inlet a single inlet and outlet with top accessible covers for each strainer allowing easy access to the inner strainer. The central manifold houses a lever enabling control of fluid flow to each side, and closing of each side for maintenance.

Our models are available in a wide Selection of Materials enabling suitability for most processes and liquids with temperatures up to 200°C.
