Model 581 & 582
Cast Carbon Steel Screwed and
Socket Weld End Y Strainers
Sizes: 1⁄4″ – 2″ (6 – 50mm)
Typical Service
• Used extensively to strain foreign matter from pipelines and provide economical protection for costly pumps, meters, valves, and other similar mechanical equipment.
• These are especially critical where weld debris is often present in the pipeline.
• Well suited for long service in high pressure and temperature applications.
Features
• Machined seats in both body and cap align and lock the screen in place to stop sediment bypass.
• Machined seats facilitate alignment and accurate reseating after servicing.
Construction
• Straight threaded, gasketed cap is used for easy disassembly and assembly. Many others use Loctite, rendering disassembly virtually impossible.
• Heavy duty, rugged bodies with extra heavy bore.
Self-Cleaning
• Self-cleaning is accomplished by opening the plug or valve connected to the blowoff outlet
Blowoff Outlets
• Outlets are NPT tapped
• Sizes of tapping specified on next page
• Not normally furnished with plug. Plug available, specify with order.
• Blind caps are also available, specify with order.
Capacity
• Generously proportioned bodies
• Open Area Ratio much greater than pipe size, ensuring low pressure drop
