Strainer


Strainers are important components in pipeline construction that serve to remove impurities from the pipeline and thus improve the performance and service life of the system.
There are different types of strainers, which are designed differently depending on the application. Some of the most common strainers used in pipeline construction are:

  • Strainer: this strainer consists of a sieve that removes impurities from the pipeline due to their size. Strainers are usually installed in the pipelines upstream of pumps and fittings.
  • Magnetic trap: This strainer removes metallic impurities from the pipeline by collecting them on a magnetic component. Magnetic catchers are usually installed in the piping upstream of the equipment to minimise the risk of damage from metallic contaminants.
  • Oil trap: This strainer removes oil and other non-water-soluble liquids from the pipeline by collecting them on a water surface. Oil traps are usually used in sewage systems to prevent oil spills. Sludge trap: This strainer removes sludge and other poorly soluble contaminants from the pipeline by collecting them on a water surface. Sludge traps are usually used in sewage systems to prevent sludge.
All strainers in pipeline construction are usually serviced and cleaned regularly to maintain their performance and service life. This can be done either manually or automatically, depending on the requirements of the application. In summary, strainers in pipeline construction offer an important opportunity to improve the performance and service life of the installation by removing impurities.
