STRAINERS

Y Strainer takes their name from their configuration. YEC Y Strainers are cast in sizes ¼” – 24″ with Threaded, Socket Weld or Flanged End connections. Strainers are your most economical choice for large debris removal. They are most commonly used in pressurized lines, gas or liquid, but can also be used in suction or vacuum conditions. Y-Strainer has the advantage of being able to be installed in either a horizontal or vertical position. However, in both cases, the screening element or “leg” must be on the “downside” of the strainer body so that entrapped solids can be properly collected and held for disposal.
Cast Y-Strainer and of course fabricated Y-Strainer are available in most materials. Pressure ratings are ANSI 125# through ANSI 2500#. Standard body materials offered are Cast Iron, Ductile Iron, Cast Steel, Stainless Steel, Chrome-Moly and Bronze. The Y-Strainer are equipped with a blow off port. A ball valve can be fitted to flush debris that is easily removable from the screen and exhaust to atmosphere or a drain system. This feature allows for easy cleaning without interrupting the process. Various Perforations, Mesh or Perforation Mesh combinations or Wedge Wire screens are available to meet your process requirements. We carry a large inventory so you don’t have to.

Basket Strainers feature top removal of the screen. The screen is in the form of a basket, with a lifting handle, so that all particulate captured and retained by the screen can be easily removed for disposal. They are intended for applications where large amounts of solids particulate are expected and where the clean-out will be frequent. For easily flushable solids, a modified cone bottom basket can be tilted with automatic or manual blow-down through drain port.
This will allow clean-out without removal of the screen, and without interrupting the flow process.
Basket Strainers range in size from 3/8″ – 24″ with Threaded, Socket Weld or Flanged End Connections. Pressure ratings are ANSI 125-600#. Standard body materials offered are Cast Iron, Ductile Iron, Cast Steel, Stainless Steel, Chrome-Moly and Bronze. Various Perforations, Mesh or Perforation Mesh combinations baskets are available to meet your process requirements. YEC Basket Strainers can be equipped with Bolted Covers, Hinged Covers, Clamped Covers, a Davit Lifting Device or other Lifting Device to make removal of large heavy covers safe and efficient. Widespread list of options are available. Basket Strainers are in stock at Yogiraj Engineering company ensuring prompt delivery of your order.

Duplex Strainers are designed for applications where flow cannot be shut down to service the strainer screen. Change over is accomplished by use of butterfly valves.They are very economical because they are fabricated to your specific requirements and with your choice of valves. This arrangement provides a bubble-tight shut off between basket chambers, essential for use in negative head pump suction systems. Read more about Duplex Strainers

A YEC Tee strainer is a custom fabricated compound strainer designed to remove foreign particles from pipeline. Tee Type Strainers are a low cost solution to large nominal bore straining requirements. They can be mounted into vertical or horizontal piping and can be configured for right-angled applications.
Tee strainers are most commonly supplied with a range of graded filtration levels (fine to coarse or vice-versa) to ensure that the system is running at the required cleanliness level when met with full load. Tee strainers feature either bolted cover or quick opening covers for application suitability.
Tee strainers are used where a compact accessible strainers is needed for protection of pumps, valves and similar equipment. Check out our full line of strainers or for more information contact us right now.

YEC Automatic Scraper Strainer is a motorized unit designed for the continuous removal of suspended solids from intake, process and wastewater flows. These units can handle heavy solids loading with particles as small as 75 microns and as large as 150mm (6″ stones). Our strainers have been installed on applications where backwash strainers have suffered premature clogging, such as black liquor, heavy oils, wax, unprotected river water intakes and boiler waste slurries.
Cleaning is accomplished by a spring-loaded blade and brush system managed by a fully automatic control system. The blades remove larger solids while the brush clean out the individual slots of the wedgewire filtration element, removing smaller particles. The spring-loaded mechanism maintains blade and brush contact with the screen at all times. A separate blow down timer allows the accumulated solids to be expelled from the bottom of the strainer vessel where they are collected during the scraping cycle. Having a separate blow down cycle allows our scraper strainer to use far less fluid for cleaning than competing backwash designs.
The Scraper strainers are available in sizes 2″ through 36″ in fabricated construction using carbon steel, stainless steel and assorted alloys. All strainer vessels are designed and built in general accordance with ANSI and ASME Sec. VIII, Div. 1. Nozzle arrangements can be offset (standard), in-line at the top and at the bottom of the vessel.
Typical Applications
YEC Automatic Scraper Strainers are used in nearly every industry to strain river, lake or seawater intakes for plant cooling water, fire protection and process requirements.
