Eaton Model 85 Y-Strainer, Carbon Steel Construction, 1-1/2" 150# Flange, Stainless Steel Perforated Screen, Non-Asbestos Gasket

Eaton Model 85 Y-Strainers are engineered to withstand aggressive industrial and commercial applications. Y-Strainers protect downstream process system components by mechanically removing unwanted solids from liquid, gas or steam lines by means of a perforated or wire mesh straining element. To protect against any bypass, the Model 85 Y-Strainers are manufactured with a precision-machined screen seat on the body of the strainer and high-quality stainless steel screens fabricated to fit the strainer body perfectly. Model 85 Y-Strainers are available in carbon steel or stainless steel for pipeline sizes from 1/4" to 10" with threaded, flanged or socket weld connections.

For cost-effective straining solutions, Y-Strainers work well in applications in which the amount of material to be removed from the flow is relatively small, resulting in long intervals between screen cleanings. The strainer screen is manually cleaned by shutting down the line and removing the strainer cap. For applications with heavier dirt loading, Y-Strainers fitted with a "blow-off" connection permit cleaning of the screen without removing it from the strainer body.
