Stainless Steel Basket Filter Working Principle:

When the filter medium enters the chamber from the filter inlet, the solid impurity particles are retained in the filter basket and clean filtrate flows out from the filter outlet.

When cleaning or replacing the filter basket, close the pipeline system, unscrew the drain plug at the bottom of the main pipe and drain the fluid. And then open the filter cover, re-install the filter basket after cleaning, and fasten the filter housing and filter cover.

Stainless Steel Basket Filter Application:

Basket strainers are mainly used to remove rocks, sand, dirt, pipe scale, gravels and other solids from industrial liquids, gases, steam and water, and are widely used in the following industries.

• Oil & gas. Natural gas pipeline transportation and filtration;
• Water treatment. Raw water filtration; large farm irrigation water filtration; fire water filtration;
• Marine filtration systems. On-board freshwater system filtration, seawater valve box filters, fire line suction systems, bilge line filters, lubricating oil filters;
• Chemical. Cooling water filters and chemical process filters;
• Mining. Dewatering filters and process fluid filters;
• Metallurgy. Cooling water filters for rolling mills and furnaces.
