Appearance structure
· The Y-type strainer is in the shape of "Y", usually containing a right-angled elbow, enabling the strainer to be installed vertically or horizontally in the pipeline.
· Its internal structure is relatively simple, mainly composed of the main pipe, strainer screen, flange and fasteners.
strainer screen design
· The strainer screen is usually installed inside the main pipe. After the fluid enters from the inlet, impurities are intercepted by the strainer screen, and the clean fluid flows out from the outlet.
· The pore size of the strainer screen can be customized as needed to meet different filtration precision requirements.
Appearance structure
· The T-type strainer is in the shape of "T", composed of a tee pipe, flange, flange cover, strainer element and strainer seat, etc.
· Its structure is relatively complex, and the strainer element is usually installed in the protruding part of the tee pipe.
strainer screen design
· The strainer element of the T-type strainer is usually a cylindrical strainer cartridge with a wire mesh, and the strainer seat is elliptical. This design can increase the filtration area.
· The strainer element can be disassembled and cleaned through the flange cover, which is relatively convenient for maintenance.
Filtration Area
• The strainer screen of the Y-type strainer is installed within the limitation of the pipeline diameter, so the filtration area is relatively small.
• It is suitable for fluid systems with low flow rate and few impurities.
Resistance
• Due to the cylindrical surface design of the strainer screen, the resistance when the fluid passes through is relatively small, and the energy consumption is low.
Applicable Media
• The Y-type strainer can be used for various media such as water, oil, and gas, with a wide range of applications.
Filtration Area
• The strainer element design of the T-type strainer results in a relatively large filtration area, enabling it to hold more impurities.
• It is suitable for fluid systems with high flow rates and a large amount of impurities.
Resistance
• Due to the large filtration area, the T-type strainer has relatively low resistance under high-flow conditions.
Applicable Media
• The T-type strainer is also applicable to a variety of media, but it is more suitable for handling fluids containing a large amount of impurities.
Impurity content
If the impurities in the fluid are few, the Y-type strainer is a better choice as it has a simple structure and is easy to maintain.
If the fluid contains a large amount of impurities, the T-type strainer is more suitable because it has a larger filtration area and a higher capacity to hold impurities.
Flow rate
For low-flow systems, the compact design of the Y-type strainer can save space.
For high-flow systems, the larger filtration area of the T-type strainer can reduce pressure drop.
Medium type
Both strainers are suitable for a variety of media, but the T-type strainer performs better when dealing with high-viscosity fluids.
