Stainless Steel basket filter

Specifications

Stainless steel filter basket

The basket or element is the heart of a  strainer . After a particular type of strainer

housing has been selected, equal concern should be given to the basket or screen

design and the perforation or mesh size, for this alone determines the ultimate

functionality and performance of the  strainer.

Cylindrical
Standard baskets with bow-shaped handles which are pushed down by the cover to

ensure a tight seal in the strainer body . This is the standard type of perforated or

mesh basket available in Stainless Steel or Monel. 

Pleated (Convoluted)
Pleated, open type baskets which have a very low pressure drop. The convoluted or

pleated structure gives a much greater straining area then other designs.

Elements (Screens)
Used in self cleaning strainers instead of baskets to trap unwanted  particles and debris.

These items are designed so that debris is easily dislodged during backwashing, and can

be made from perforated plate, sinter bonded mesh and wedge wire

Slanted (Elliptical) Top
The slanted open top design allows fluid to enter easily and cuts down pressure drop.

This also allows inline connections on fabricated bodies, and also the use of smaller baskets

in multi-basket strainers so that these can be removed easily by one person, even on very

large units.
