Eaton Pipeline Strainer Product Types

ESA supplies a full range of Eaton manual pipeline strainers to accommodate different system requirements and maintenance preferences.

Eaton Model 90 fabricated simplex strainer
Simplex Strainers

Simplex strainers feature a single basket or screen that must be removed for cleaning. These are commonly used in applications where system shutdown for maintenance is acceptable or where debris load is relatively low.

Benefits include:
  • Simple design and easy operation
  • Lower initial cost compared to duplex systems
  • Effective protection for pumps, valves, and instrumentation
Model 50 Plug Type Duplex Strainers
Duplex Strainers

Duplex strainers have two baskets, allowing operators to switch flow between them without shutting down the system. This makes them ideal for continuous operation environments.

Key advantages:
  • No process interruption during cleaning
  • Increased uptime and operational efficiency
  • Suitable for high-debris applications or mission-critical systems
Strainer Baskets
Baskets and Screens

Eaton strainer baskets and screens are designed to capture contaminants efficiently while maintaining proper flow.

Available options include:
  • Perforated metal baskets for coarse filtration
  • Fine mesh screens for high-precision applications
  • Multi-layer screens for enhanced debris capture
  • Heavy-duty baskets for high-pressure systems
Model 85 Y Strainers
Y-Strainers

Y-strainers are compact and cost-effective filtration solutions that fit easily into piping systems with limited space. They are commonly used for steam, water, oil, and gas applications.

Features include:
  • Simple inline installation
  • Minimal pressure drop
  • Easy access for cleaning and inspection
Model 92 Temporary Strainer
Temporary Strainers

Temporary strainers are typically installed during system startup or after maintenance to capture construction debris, welding slag, or loose particles before they reach permanent filtration equipment.

Common uses include:
  • New pipeline commissioning
  • Post-maintenance flushing
  • Short-term system protection
