What is Basket Strainer?
An official definition adopted by the Fluid Controls Institute is : closed vessel with cleanable screen element
designed to remove and retain foreign particles down to 0.001 inch diameter from various flowing fluids.? Note
the term foreign particles?. Strainers do not necessarily remove only dirt. They take out material which is not
wanted in the fluid and this can sometime be a valuable product which may be saved.
Basket Strainer designed for remove foreign matter from pipe lines and provides protection for pumps, meters,
valves, and other similar mechanical equipment, which is called as Strainer. 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. The particulate matter is captured in the strainer basket. The line
is then temporarily shut down and the basket removed for cleaning or replacement. Baskets are fabricated from
stainless perforated sheet. The Basket Strainer is also called as Pot Strainer. The strainer improves the clearance
in the medium, and prolongs the life of valves; protect expensive pumps, meters and other equipments. It is suitable
for water, Air, Gas, petroleum, steam and other fluids.
Working principle
Basket type filter a small equipment which is used to remove small amount of solid particles in water,which consists of connecting pipe,main pipe,filtration basket,flange,blind flange and fastener,etc.When the liquid flows into the filtration basket rough main pipe.solid impurity particles are blocked in the filtration basket,but the clean liquid will flow through the basket and be discharged through sewage outfall.when it needs to be cleaned,unscrew the bottom plug of main pipe,discharge the liquid and disassemble the blind flange,and assembly it again after cleaning.so it is easy to operate and maintain.
T type basket strainer filter is a branch of pipeline filter series. Usually it is installed inside of the pressure relief-valve and used to clean up the impurity in the media, in order to protect the valve and normal performance for the equipment.

The Difference between Strainer & Filter
Actually there isn't any since a strainer is, in reality, a coarse filter. The
question is then one of semantics. Generally it is assumed that if the particle
to be removed is not visible to the naked eye, the unit is filtering, and if the
particle is visible, the unit is straining. The average human eye can detect a
specific particle between 50 and 70 micros. Most people cannot see anything smaller
than 325 mesh, or 44 microns. Since 200 mesh is equivalent to 74 microns, a general
rule would be that if the screening device is coarser than 200 mesh, it is a strainer
and if it is finer than 200 mesh it is a filter.
One of the best uses for a strainer is in conjunction with a filter. By installing
a strainer directly ahead of a filter, the large heavy pieces which would quickly
clog the filter are removed. The filter is then free to do its major job of fine
particle removal and does not have to be cleaned so often
How to select right Strainer Element?
The strainer element (it can be for y type strainer for basket type strainer)
is the heart of a strainer since this is where the unwanted material is trapped.
Strainer baskets elements are made of perforated sheet metal and a wide range of
opening sizes is available. The size of the basket perforation should be slightly
smaller than the minimum particle size to be removed. Using a smaller perforation
opening than necessary only means the basket will fill and clog more quickly and
have to be cleaned more often. By the using of fine element mesh sheet along with
peforated sheet can achive fine filtration up to 5 Micron.
When to Clean Basket Strainer Element?
Strainer basket element should be cleaned on a regular basis, not when they
become clogged, to insure that they are not damaged by too high a differential
pressure. One more reason for frequent cleaning is a phenomenon known as runaway
buildup?. As dirt in a strainer basket accumulates and as the mesh or perforations
plug up, pressure drop increases. The curve of this pressure difference is not a
straight line. It starts out as a low slope, but as the basket clogs more and more
it turns upward faster and faster. As the dirt builds up the free open area in the
basket gets smaller and smaller.
