Strainers are closed mechanical devices that contain a cleanable screen or mesh used to remove and retain foreign particles from flowing liquids, such as oil, gas, slurries, steam, and solids along pipelines. If a particle is visible to the naked eye, a strainer should be chosen to remove it from the liquid stream. If the device retains particles finer than 45 microns, it is generally considered a filter

The Y strainer, has compact in design and is considered for use where space constraints exist. Frequent cleaning is often required. It's a good choice for high-pressure applications and for gases where pressures are higher and amount of dirt present is low. Y strainer has less capacity to store dirt than similar sizes of basket strainers. It is installed in a pipeline with its strainer element in the down position and can be positioned either horizontally or vertically.

A stainless steel basket strainer is a filtration device used in pipelines to remove unwanted solid particles from liquids, gases, or steam. These strainers are highly corrosion-resistant and durable, making them ideal for industrial and sanitary applications.
