The body and
cover of the Model 72L are lined, not just coated, with Tefzel®
– which protects all wetted surfaces of the strainer – making it
impervious to attack by chemicals that can cause rapid
deterioration of other types of plastics and all but the most
costly metal alloys. This
strainer a low cost alternative to exotic alloy strainers in a
wide variety of lined piping applications.
The Tefzel
fluoropolymer lining is inert to strong mineral acids, inorganic
bases, halogens and metal salt solutions. Even carboxylic acids,
anhydrides, aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons, alcohols,
aldehydes, ketones, ethers, esters, chlorocarbons and classic
polymer solvents have little effect on the Tefzel lining.
Service
temperatures can range up to 300°F in many applications. The
lining also displays excellent mechanical strength when handling
abrasive slurries.
Fitted with
fluoropolymer coated perforated baskets or mesh baskets made of
Monel of Hastelloy C these strainers can be used in almost any
lined piping or similar corrosive/abrasive strainer application.
Simplex
pipeline strainers remove damage causing particulate matter from
the process media, protecting system components such as flow
meters, pumps, and spray nozzles. The particulate matter is
captured in the strainer basket. The line is then temporarily
shut down and the basket removed for cleaning or replacement. |
