Accessories General Description Forged Brass, Bronze, Cast Iron, and Stainless Steel Bodies: Asco Rugged self-cleaning "Y" type body strainers have an easily removable strainer element of perforated stainless steel sheet or wire mesh in cylindrical form. The total free hole area as specified in the table is the total area of all perforations or openings through the straining elements. They are suitable for air, water, oil and steam. Plastic Body: These ASCO strainers have a straight through flow design with a large area orifice. The strainer can be easily removed from the line and cleaned by back flushing. They are suitable for air and water. Applications: Strainers should be used wherever it is essential that the fluid flowing through pipe lines be maintained free of foreign solid matter. This is necessary to assure proper flown and to prevent damage to controls and other equipment. Installation: The strainers may be mounted in any position. When installed with solenoid valves, the strainer should be connected in the upstream (inlet) side of the valve -- as close to the valve as possible. Pipe Size (ins.)
