Protect System Components
The Hayward All Plastic Simplex Basket Strainer effectively protects pipeline components from dirt and debris. It removes unwanted particles as the process media flows through a perforated basket inside the strainer body, ensuring that only clean media continues downstream.
Easy Basket Cleaning
Changing or cleaning the strainer basket is straightforward. The hand-removable, spin-off cover features two angled handles for quick access. The housing has external cover threads that remain clean and free from process media contamination. Venting and draining are facilitated by hand-removable threaded plugs located on both the cover and the side of the housing.
Versatile Piping Connections
Designed for both in-line and loop piping configurations, the strainer incorporates three connection points on the body for versatile installation. The unused connection can be plugged with the included blind fitting. True union connections make it easy to detach the strainer from the system without disrupting existing piping.
Wide Range of Strainer Baskets
Choose from a variety of plastic basket perforation sizes ranging from 1/32” to 3/16”. For more demanding applications, stainless steel perforated baskets are available in sizes from 1/2” to 1/32”.
