High Strength Basket Strainer

Basket Simplex Strainers and Filters are normally used for batch operations where the liquid flow may be interrupted periodically for cleaning purpose or other maintenance. They are also known as Inline Simplex Strainers / Oil filter.

TRISTAR make strainers are widely used across industries for effective filtration of suspended impurities or solid particles from fluids such as oils, fuels, acids, solvents, water etc. These strainers operate on mechanical solid liquid separation technique, where practically no energy is used.

Strainers ensure smooth flow of fluids, protect pumps, nozzles, valves, heat exchangers, control systems and other expensive pipeline equipment thereby ensuring long productive life of equipment. In the process increasing productivity by reducing maintenance and downtime.
Simplex Basket Strainers provide higher filtration area as compared to Y type or T type strainers, hence the frequency of cleaning is reduced.

Application: Tristar Basket Filter can be used for filtering a wide variety of industrial fluids such as:

Fuel oils like Petrol, Diesel, ATF, Furnace Oil, LSHS etc
Lube Oils,
Vegetable Oils
High viscosity liquids
Chemical Solutions
Cooling water
Process water, boiler feed water etc
Coarse filtration of sea and river water.

They are also known as Oil Stariner, Stariner Filter, Industrial Basket Filter, Stainless Stell Basket Strainers

Main Features and Advantages:

Custom designed to suit process parameters of flow rate, pressure drop and filtration.
Larger Basket Area (Gross Filtration Area) AcA A at least 25 times the cross-section inlet area, resulting in lesser pressure drop and lesser cleaning frequency.
Compact design- Can be mounted on pipelines like a valve.
Positive Filtration- Specially designed basket seating arrangement with spring ensures no liquid bypass
Degree of Filtration AcA A Coarse filtration down to 5 microns or less can be achieved from a wide choice of filter media.
Reduced Frequency of Cleaning and maintenanceAcA A Higher Gross filtration area and multiple baskets ensure that the frequency of cleaning is low.
Inline or Offline construction available.
Multiple filtration element design options available.
Available in Carbon steel, Stainless steel of various grades. Galvanization on request.
Standard Sizes AcA A 25 NB to 500 NB, Larger sizes available.
