MNC Valves Ltd.
MNC Valves LimitedΒ manufactures pot type strainers designed for very high dirt-holding capacity, deep basket volume, extended cleaning intervals, and heavy-duty industrial liquid filtration in raw water intake, cooling circuits, large utility systems, and process applications with heavy contamination load.
Very high dirt-holding capacity for heavy contamination service
Deep pot-shaped body with large basket volume
Lower maintenance frequency in dirty liquid systems
Suitable for large industrial and utility liquid lines
MNC Valves LimitedΒ offers pot type strainers for applications where contamination level is high, basket cleaning interval must be extended, and the filtration chamber needs to handle large volumes of debris. Pot type strainers are widely used in heavy-duty industrial liquid systems such as raw water intake, cooling water service, large circulation lines, process plants, and utility filtration duties.
Compared with standard basket or Y strainers, pot type strainers provide a deeper body and larger basket chamber, which makes them especially useful in dirty service applications where debris accumulation is high and frequent cleaning is undesirable.
AΒ pot type strainerΒ is a heavy-duty industrial filtration device with a deep cylindrical or pot-shaped body that houses a large basket or screen assembly. It is designed to remove solid particles from flowing liquid media while offering much higher dirt retention volume than many standard strainer designs.
Pot type strainers are generally used in large pipeline systems and dirty liquid applications where the strainer must operate for longer periods before cleaning. Their deep chamber helps collect larger amounts of debris without immediate blockage.
The process liquid enters the pot type strainer body and flows through the large internal basket or screen element. Suspended solids, rust, scale, leaves, and process debris are retained inside the basket chamber, while the cleaned liquid exits downstream.
The deep body and large basket volume allow accumulation of much larger debris load before cleaning is required. This makes the pot type strainer highly suitable for heavy contamination service and large-volume liquid systems.
The deep cylindrical body stores a large amount of trapped debris and supports heavy-duty filtration duty.
A larger basket volume improves dirt capacity and helps reduce the frequency of maintenance shutdown.
Designed for tough industrial service where flow volume and contamination load are both high.

Pot type strainers are used for heavy-duty liquid filtration where very high dirt-holding capacity and long cleaning intervals are required.
The main advantage is its very large basket chamber, which allows higher debris accumulation and lower maintenance frequency.
It is commonly used in raw water intake, cooling water systems, power plants, marine service, and heavy industrial liquid filtration applications.
Pot type strainers generally provide deeper chamber volume and much higher dirt-holding capacity than standard basket strainers.
Pot type strainers are generally used in liquid applications, while other strainer types may be more suitable for steam duty.
CI, WCB, fabricated steel, and stainless steel constructions may be used depending on application and size.
SS304 and SS316 perforated or mesh-lined basket screens are commonly used depending on media and corrosion conditions.
Pressure drop rises when the basket becomes loaded with debris and needs cleaning or replacement.
Pot type strainers are generally preferred for extremely heavy dirt-holding capacity, while T type strainers are selected for large high-flow filtration with lower restriction in certain applications.
Because MNC Valves Limited provides technical selection support, heavy-duty filtration guidance, and pot type strainer solutions suitable for large industrial liquid systems.
