- Y Strainers (or Wye Strainers) mechanically remove debris in pipeline with a cylindrical straining element, often called a screen. They can be placed in horizontal or vertical pipelines (downward only) and require regular cleaning of the screen for proper operation.
Titan® Wye Strainer, Series: YS55-BZ, 1 in Nominal, 3.7 in Overall Length, Thread, 1/2 in NPT Blow-Off, PTFE, Cast Bronze Body
- Large straining capacity: With its large body and sizeable straining element, the YS55 provide excellent open area ratios that are typically two-and-a-half times larger than the corresponding pipeline, minimizing pressure drop across the valve
- Precision machined seats: Precision machined screen seats in both the body and cap help to ensure accurate positioning of the screen during reassembly after cleaning, also the machined body seats enable finer filtration by preventing debris bypass
- Self-cleaning capability: With a tapped NPT blow-off connection, this unit can be fitted with a blow-down valve which facilitates cleaning of the straining element
- Threaded cap: Titan®'s YS55 and YS56 have straight threads to permit easy cap removal for cleaning and proper alignment when reassembling strainer
