Low-cost plastic takes the strain
15 Jan 2000
A range of Simplex PVC strainers from Hayward Industrial Products has been designed for low-cost protection of process plant and pipelines that are susceptible to contamination by particles.
Available in 6 or 8in versions for flow rates up to 1000gpm, the all-plastic injection moulded strainers out-perform metal strainers in corrosive applications, Hayward claims. The strainers' Viton seals are easily installed.
Plastic strainer baskets come with 1/8 or 3/16in perforations, or in stainless steel down to 50mm.
