FAQ’s
1. What are basket strainers used for?
A: Basket strainers are used to remove unwanted solids from sanitary process lines and help protect downstream equipment and product quality. We design them for use in food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and other critical processing applications. They are also a cost-effective solution for manufacturers and processors that need reliable sanitary filtration.
2. How do I choose the right basket strainers mesh or micron rating?
A: We offer several basket media options, including perforated baskets, wire mesh liner baskets, wedge wire baskets, and filter bags. The right choice depends on your required particle retention, product characteristics, and cleaning needs. Our available media ranges from coarse perforation down to fine micron retention levels for more demanding sanitary filtration applications.
3. Which basket strainers media options are best for high-viscosity or CIP applications?
A: For high-viscosity or CIP applications, we often recommend our wedge wire basket strainer options because they are well suited for demanding sanitary service. These designs can support applications involving backwash, varying flow conditions, and more difficult products. We also engineer specialty sanitary strainers for processes that require higher pressure or more customized performance.
