AUTOMATIC FLUSHING STRAINERS

South Africa’s modern economy is highly dependent on quality filtration and filtration frameworks.  Our advanced strainer/in-line screen expels unwanted debris from a process liquid flow, even up to 180 µm particles.  One particular sort of strainers that are well known across a wide range of applications are automatic flushing strainers also known as the PrepQuip in-line guard screen.

Its principle uses incorporate collecting and sifting out solid materials and particles in liquids, such as, oil, fuel and water. By removing these particles, oversize and in some cases hazardous materials are kept from entering the process stream which in turn protects upstream equipment.  A conventional basket strainer requires manual cleaning of the filtration component frequently, with a specific end goal to remove blockages.  The in-line guard screen automatically flushes away unwanted oversize material during operation with no need to stop the process.

The flushing strainer has a purging port that is connected to the strainer.  This enables the automatic flushing and purging of collected solids and debris into an appropriate container, from where it can be easily discarded.  In conjunction with the fact that the in-line screen cleans itself, its purging can likewise occur without stopping operations or the flow of liquid as mentioned above.  These are just a few of the many reasons why so many companies have adopted for our automatic flushing strainer technology in their operations.
