Maintenance of the Flanged Y Strainer

1. How should the flange y strainer be protected and maintained?

1) Coarse filter

The core part of the filter is the filter element, which is composed of a filter frame and a stainless steel wire mesh. The stainless steel wire mesh is a wearing part and needs special protection;

When the filter works for a period of time, certain impurities are precipitated in the core of the y strainer flange type. At this time, the pressure drop increases and the flow rate decreases. It is necessary to remove the impurities in the filter core in time;

When cleaning impurities, pay special attention that the stainless steel wire mesh on the filter element cannot be deformed or damaged. Otherwise, the purity of the filter medium after filtration will not meet the design requirements, and the compressors, pumps, instruments and other equipment will be damaged; If the stainless steel wire mesh is found to be deformed or damaged, it needs to be replaced immediately.

2) Precision filter

The core part of the precision y strainer flange type is the filter element, which is composed of special materials and is a wearing part, which needs special protection;

When the precision filter works for a period of time, the filter element intercepts a certain amount of impurities. At this time, the pressure drop increases and the flow rate will decrease. It is necessary to remove the impurities in the filter in time and clean the filter element at the same time;

When removing impurities, special attention should be paid to the precision filter element, which must not be deformed or damaged. Otherwise, the purity of the filter element after filtration will not meet the design requirements;

Some precision filter elements cannot be used repeatedly, such as bag filter elements, polypropylene filter elements, etc. If the flanged y strainer element is found to be deformed or damaged, it needs to be replaced immediately. Pay attention to rust prevention. Paint or butter shall be applied at the flange and heat preservation shall be done.

2. How to make the flange y strainer work stably for a long time？

1)Regular cleaning

The flange y strainer is an important strainer to prevent particulate matter, but it has a certain space limit. If there are too many mechanical substances in the pipeline, the flange y strainer will be blocked if it is not discharged in time.

In the long run, it will be like the blockage of mechanical impurities in the pipeline, which generally accumulates to form impurity clusters, which affect the working effect of the flange y strainer or reduce its service life. Therefore, it is also important for the daily cleaning work of the flange y strainer.

2) Regularly correct the position

Affected by the water pressure and the specific installation area environment, the important flange y strainer may move in position after installation, or there may be a few displacements that cannot be recognized by the naked eye.

In this case, if it is difficult to find out without using professional equipment to detect, it will affect the normal operation of the y strainer flange type in the long run. Therefore, in order to ensure its work, please correct the position regularly.

3) Regularly tighten

Usually the flange y strainer filters steam or oil and nitric acid products, and in places such as electric power or metallurgy and oil transportation, it is usually necessary to configure a large number of heavy machinery. Heavy machinery has a certain amount of vibration, which will also have a certain impact on the flange y strainer.

For example, in the long run, part of the structure of they strainer flange type may be loosened, so attention should be paid to tightening it in daily maintenance.

At the same time, when the flange y strainer is damaged, it must be replaced in time to avoid affecting the overall impurity removal process. If the flange y strainer is used in batches, it is necessary to pay attention to the connectivity of the filter system to see if it can work together stably.

The verification and re-inspection after the installation of flange y strainer is critical. It can operate normally only after confirming that the flange y strainer works normally and the filtration system is normal and stable.
