Key Features
Removable Stainless Steel Screen
A stainless mesh element traps scale, weld slag and debris before it reaches pumps, valves and heat exchangers, and lifts out for cleaning without removing the body.
Integral Blowdown Ball Valve
A built-in ball valve on the blowdown port lets the screen be flushed under pressure without draining the system or adding a separate valve.
Pressure/Temperature Test Ports
Integral P/T ports allow differential pressure and temperature to be read directly at the strainer for commissioning and troubleshooting.
