The Type W basket strainer goes beyond the limits of conventional basket and pot strainers, offering maximum planning freedom through flexible installation. Its thoughtful design allows optimal adaptation to a wide range of plant concepts.

Flexible installation of the basket strainer

The installation of the Type W basket strainer can be tailored to the specific requirements of your plant. The filter can be installed:

• Horizontally, or
• Vertically

…depending on your operational needs and the spatial conditions on site.

Low flow resistance and maintenance-friendly design

Compared to conventional Y-strainers, the Type W basket strainer offers significantly lower flow resistance. Maintenance is also highly user-friendly:

• No overhead work required
• No hoist or crane needed to open the lid

This increases service intervals and, in turn, plant availability.

Convenient basket removal without crane use

Depending on the installation orientation of the basket strainer, the cover-lifting device (DHS) supports ergonomic maintenance:

• Swing arm for horizontal installation
• Pivot arm for vertical installation

These solutions allow maintenance personnel to easily remove the basket, including collected debris, entirely without a crane. This saves time and costs while greatly simplifying the cleaning process.
