Duplex Basket Filter Housings

Admin

Duplex Basket Filters and Strainers provide continuous process flow service, allowing cleaning or replacement of a basket without interrupting the process flow. Duplex Filter/strainers can be supplied as either cast or fabricated units which are normally installed horizontally into pipelines, however, fabricated units can be orientated to suit your requirements. Duplex strainers comprise two filter chambers, one duty and one standby, each housing either single or multi baskets.

The two filter chambers are interconnected by a valve changeover system, which diverts the flow from one chamber to the other without interrupting the process flow. There are several different valve arrangements that are used to divert the flow and these are detailed below.

Duplex Basket Filters are used to clean liquid, viscous and gaseous media. They offer perfect protection against  undesirable particles and are cost effective in protecting your piping, industrial valves and plants.
