FlowBiz Strainer for Chemical & Petrochemical Processing – Heavy-Duty Corrosive Media Filtration

Continuous chemical synthesis, polymer manufacturing, hydrocarbon refining, and solvent recovery demand clean process streams to prevent valve degradation, pump impellers scoring, and catalyst bed fouling. The FlowBiz Strainer for Chemical & Petrochemical Processing is engineered for high-volume inline filtration of aggressive chemicals, solvents, acids, and liquid hydrocarbons.

Featuring a heavy-duty fabricated stainless steel body (ASTM A351 CF8M / SS316) with precision-welded flanged connections, this 8" Class 150 Y-type strainer effectively captures scale, particulates, and process contaminants. Designed with a high-strength SS316 wire mesh basket element and a bolted bonnet cover, the FlowBiz Strainer for Chemical & Petrochemical Processing allows straightforward basket inspection, cleaning, and flushing while maintaining low differential pressure across liquid process headers.
