Fig 34 Carbon Steel Y-type Strainer
Integrally flanged carbon steel Y-type strainer for DN15 to DN400 pipelines, with EN, ASME and JIS/KS flange options and selectable stainless-steel or Monel screens.
Fig 34 carbon steel Y-type strainer
The Spirax Sarco Fig 34 is an integrally flanged carbon steel Y-type strainer designed to remove rust, scale and other debris from pipelines. Its documented range spans DN15 to DN400, with EN, ASME and JIS/KS flange options selected according to size, material standard and required pressure class.
The screen specification scales with the line size: the standard stainless-steel screen uses 0.8 mm perforations from DN15 to DN80, 1.6 mm perforations from DN100 to DN200 and 3 mm perforations from DN250 to DN400. Alternative perforations, mesh sizes and Monel screens are available for applications that need a different balance between debris retention and pressure drop.
Range and selection
- DN15-DN200, EN material: EN 1092 PN40 flanges.
- DN15-DN200, ASTM material: ASME Class 150, ASME Class 300 and JIS/KS 20 flanges.
- DN250-DN400: EN 1092 PN16, PN25 or PN40; ASME B16.5 Class 150 or 300; and JIS/KS 10 or 20.
- Service envelope: pressure and temperature limits depend on flange and material configuration; use the applicable tables and curves below rather than a single headline rating.
For installation, align the body arrow with the flow direction. In steam or gas service the strainer pocket should lie in the horizontal plane; in liquid service it should point downwards. The screen and cap or cover gasket are available as service parts.
EN material, DN15 to DN200
Technical Information: TI-P064-01, CMGT Issue 14.
The Fig 34 is a carbon steel integrally flanged Y-type strainer in EN material. It complies with the European Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU. A manufacturer's Typical Test Report is standard; EN 10204 3.1 certification for body and cap is available by order.
