Liquid Filter
Basket Strainer is a closed vessel that uses a filterelement to filter out foreign matter from various liquids flowing in horizontal pipelines. These particles are then retained in the filter so that they do not enter into other equipment such as pumps, valves, etc.
Strainers are used to extract unwanted larger particles, such as :
- sand
- organic material
- chemical impurities from pipe streams or industrial components
While filters can be used also to remove smaller solids or even invisible chemical components.
