Basket Type Strainers by FlowBiz – Heavy-Duty Pipeline Filtration & Debris Protection
Protecting downstream pumps, control valves, meters, and heat exchangers from pipeline debris, rust, and suspended particles requires efficient inline filtration. FlowBiz Basket Type Strainers feature a high-capacity basket chamber designed to trap foreign solid matter with minimal pressure drop across liquid handling and processing lines.
Featuring a heavy-duty fabricated or cast steel body, blue protective coating, top lifting eye nut, top air vent plug, and a bottom blow-down drain plug, these strainers make basket removal, cleaning, and maintenance simple. FlowBiz basket strainers maintain continuous process integrity across water treatment, chemical processing, fuel oil handling, and industrial utility loops.
