DESIGN FEATURES
- Large filtration capacity
- Heavy duty body construction
- Low pressure drop
- Replaceable filtration screen
- Easy maintenance access
- Top cover for quick cleaning

WORKING PRINCIPLE
The T Type Strainer works by directing the process fluid through a filtration element installed inside the strainer body. During operation:
- Fluid enters the inlet side
- Contaminants are captured inside the screen
- Clean fluid exits through the outlet
Accumulated debris can be removed by opening the strainer cover.
