Lvyuan: Professional Stainless Steel Basket Strainer Manufacturer
1. Fluid enters the filter housing from the inlet, solid impurities are intercepted in the filter basket, and clean fluid passes through the filter basket and is discharged from the outlet. When the pressure difference between the inlet and outlet increases to the set value or reaches the preset time, cleaning is required.
2. The structure mainly consists of a connecting pipe, a cylinder, a filter basket, flanges, flange covers, and fasteners. The filter basket is the core filtering element, often made of stainless steel woven mesh, punched plate, etc.

How does stainless steel basket strainer work?
1. Filtration stag: The fluid to be processed enters the interior of the cylinder from the inlet of the filter. Due to the obstruction of the filter basket, the fluid is forced to pass through the mesh of the filter basket. During this process, solid impurities with a particle size larger than the mesh size of the filter basket (such as rust, sediment, pipeline scale, etc.) are trapped on the inner surface or inside of the filter basket. The purified clean fluid is collected outside the filter basket and flows out from the outlet of the filter.
2. Cleaning trigger: As impurities accumulate on the filter basket, the permeability of the filter basket will gradually decrease, creating a pressure difference (pressure drop) between the inlet and outlet of the filter. The operator can set a maximum allowable pressure difference in the control system. When the actual pressure difference reaches this set value, or a fixed cleaning time is set based on experience the cleaning program will be triggered. There are mainly two types of cleaning methods:
- Manual cleaning: Close the inlet and outlet valves, open the flange cover on the top of the filter, directly lift the filter basket out by hand, rinse with a soft brush and clean water, and then reinstall it.
- Automatic/semi-automatic cleaning: The system will automatically open the drain valve and may drive a suction nozzle or brush to move inside the filter screen, sucking up or brushing away impurities and discharging them with the drain flow. The entire cleaning process usually takes only a few tens of seconds and does not affect the continuous operation of the system.
Basket Strainer Maintenance
The main component of the basket strainer is the filter element, which consistsof a filter basket and a fixed frame. The basket is a wearing part and needsspecial protection.When the basket strainer runs for a period of time, the filter basket intercepts timpurities in the liquid, the resistance increases, and the flow rate decreasesand the filter basket needs to be cleaned in time.When cleaning the filter basket, special attention should be paid to the stainlessteel filter screen on the filter basket. lf damage, the filtration accuracy will be reduced, affecting the operation of the equipment. The filter basket should bereplaced in time when the filter screen is damaged or deformed.
How to choose the stainless steel basket strainer base on your need?
- Import and export diameter: It should not be smaller than the inlet diameter of the matching pump, usually consistent with the diameter of the pipeline.
- Nominal pressure and temperature: The pressure rating and material of the filter need to be determined based on the maximum pressure and temperature that may occur in the pipeline.
- Filtering accuracy (mesh/aperture): Choose according to the particle size of impurities you need to intercept. For example, if you need to filter small particles, you need to choose a higher mesh filter.
- Material compatibility: The housing material and sealing material of the filter must be able to withstand the corrosion of the processed medium (such as acidic and alkaline materials).
Stainless steel basket filters have become an indispensable “gatekeeper” in many industrial processes due to their simple and efficient structural design, reliable filtration performance, flexible configuration options, and convenient maintenance. I hope the above information can help you gain a more comprehensive understanding of this device.
