INTRODUCTION
A duplex strainer is a device installed in a pipeline to
remove dirt and other unwanted debris from fluids.
Straining is accomplished by directing the fluid through
sized openings in a basket. Duplex strainers are installed
where fluid flow cannot be interrupted while the basket
is removed for cleaning. Duplex strainers are designed to
withstand the rated pressure of the piping system.
Standard Model 900 and 950B strainers up to and
including 14” pipe sizes ship fully assembled. Secure the
strainer before moving and move as a single unit. Model
900 and 950B strainers sizes 26” and larger are shipped
disassembled. See Sales Drawing for assembly
