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

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.
- Simple design and easy operation
- Lower initial cost compared to duplex systems
- Effective protection for pumps, valves, and instrumentation

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.
- No process interruption during cleaning
- Increased uptime and operational efficiency
- Suitable for high-debris applications or mission-critical systems

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

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.
- Simple inline installation
- Minimal pressure drop
- Easy access for cleaning and inspection

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.
- New pipeline commissioning
- Post-maintenance flushing
- Short-term system protection
