basket filter / strainer / vertical / W

Traditional pot / basket strainers are limited in their solely horizontal installation in pipelines.

In the past, the option to utilise a strainer also in vertical mounting was only provided by Y-Filters with its given disadvantages such as high flow resistance and inconvenient handling of the cover for removal of the sieve (net weight of the cover, overhead work).

The W-Filter, however, can be installed in both ways with its given advantages in regards to minimal pressure losses and low frequency of maintenance.

In addition, equipping the W-Filter with swivel (horizontal) or swing arm (vertikal) provides the maintenance personnel easier handling of the cover and a crane-independent removal of the sieve with the dirt for cleaning.
