Y-type strainers take their name from their Y-shaped configuration. They are intended for use in pressurized lines where small amounts of solid particulates are expected and clean-out will be infrequent. A blow-down valve allows clean-out without removing the screen or interrupting process flow if solids will flush easily from the double screen.

Y” Type Strainers take their name from their configuration.
They are most commonly used in
pressurized lines, gas or liquid, but can also be used in suction or vacuum conditions. They are intended for applications where small amounts of solid particulates are expected, and where clean-out will be infrequent. If solids will flush easily from the screen, and fluid can be exhausted to atmosphere, a blow-down valve on the drain port will allow clean-out without removal of the screen, and without interrupting the process flow.
