6. Testing & Inspection

Test Item Test Pressure (PN16) Acceptance Criteria
Shell Hydrostatic Test 1.5 × PN = 24 bar No visible leakage, no structural damage
Seat / Body Seal Test 1.1 × PN = 17.6 bar No leakage through cover gasket or drain plug
Air Test (Optional) 0.6 bar (6 bar optional) Soap bubble test for leak detection
Screen Integrity Visual / Pass No tears, correct mesh size installed

7. Features & Options

  • Ductile Iron Body: Higher strength and impact resistance compared to gray cast iron.

  • Stainless Steel Screen: Corrosion-resistant, easy to clean, and replaceable.

  • Flanged Connections: Easy installation and removal from pipeline.

  • Bottom Drain / Blow-off Connection: Allows purging of debris without removing the screen (threaded plug or flanged outlet optional).

  • Coating: Fusion Bonded Epoxy (FBE) or solvent-free epoxy for corrosion protection (optional).

  • Screen Options:

    • Perforated screen (standard for coarse filtration).

    • Wire mesh lined screen (for finer filtration).

    • Dual-element screens available upon request.

  • Magnetic Insert: Optional magnetic rod to capture ferrous particles.

8. Installation & Maintenance Notes

  • Install with the screen chamber pointing vertically downward for easy cleaning.

  • Flow direction must match the arrow on the body.

  • Provide adequate space below the strainer for screen removal.

  • Regularly open the blow-off valve or remove the screen for cleaning, depending on the debris load.

  • Check gasket condition during screen maintenance and replace if necessary.
