FILTERS AND

STRAINERS

Strainer

Function
Strainers are installed on gas
or liquid pipes to protect
equipments from foreign
matters such as rust, scale,
weld slag and sand.
It is usually installed on
pumps, flow meters, various
control valves, steam traps,
spray nozzles and turbines.
It can also be installed on
heat exchangers if necessary.

Structure
The structure is simple. It has a body, Element (perforated plate and wire mesh) which
filters out foreign matter, and a cover or cap for pulling and pushing the screen.
The Element generally uses Perforated Type and Mesh Element, which is a fixed wire
mesh and a perforated plate,
The hole size of Wire mesh is depend on foreign matters size and protector, it is usually
10, 20, 30, 40, 60, 100, 200 mesh. The hole size of perforated plate is usually used 3mm,
4mm, 6mm, 8mm, 10mm.
Sizes 20~60 are generally used for liquids, air or gas applications generally utilize more
than 80 or higher.
Be careful if you use more than 200 size of mesh because of a large pressure loss.
An accumulation of foreign matter in the element can cause a loss of pressure and low
level of flow. Make sure there is enough effective area and filter area in the strainer. It
depends on the fluid type and caliber but the filter area, which is area of Element when
it is spread, has to 5 - 7 times bigger than plumbing cross-section area. The effective
area, the way that fluid goes though, should be at least more than 2 - 3 times bigger
than plumbing cross-section area.
A blow-down valve can be set up in the cap of the strainer in order to easily clean
foreign matter off of the Element.
Take caution when setting the strainer up in front of a cooling-tower pump. Much
foreign matter can collect causing fluids to run low and cavitations may form.

Internal Element of Strainer
Element is very important part as the heart of strainer. So, Corrosion Resistance,
Filtration rate and Strength must be considered sufficiently and it must be a structure
not to be bypassed the non-filtered fluid between element and body.
Cosco is manufacturing a high credible strainer that can't compare with other products
as it has a long experience and accumulated know-how in field of engineering.

1) Cone Type
It is a makeshift strainer. Even if a new factory has cleaned well, it is difficult to
determine when and where foreign matter comes out. For that case, additionally install
this butterfly net shape cone type strainer. It does not have a body and is put it
between flanges to set up. Inspect and remove it 6 to 12 month after installation.

4) Bucket Type
The top of element has cover for pulling out and is bucket shaped. The element needs
to be cleaned often and it is usually installed for processing liquid and oil lines for
quick cleaning. It is put up on BC line, which is using way of fuel oil. Duplex type, 2
strainer are arranged in a line, is normally installed for supplying oil when it is cleaning.

Inspection

Quality and Pressure

The appropriate quality of filters and strainers is determined by the type of fluids,
process pressure, temperature, etc.
The housing can be in all quality material such as carbon steel, casting, stainless
steel, alloy steel, Inconel, etc.,
but the basket of strainers and metal filters cannot be in carbon steel material.
Design of filters and strainers, such as sizing of the housing, thickness by strength
calculation, pound rating of flanges are influenced by design temperature and
pressure.
