Y Strainers Valve Supplier in Pakistan

Y strainers protect downstream equipment by trapping rust, scale, dirt and debris in a mesh screen set into a Y-shaped body. Fitted ahead of valves, pumps, meters and steam traps, they keep systems running cleanly and cut maintenance. A. Karimjee & Sons supplies Y strainers in carbon and stainless steel with flanged, threaded and socket-weld ends for steam, gas and liquid service.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a Y-strainer do?

It filters solid particles — rust, scale, weld slag, dirt — out of the flow using a mesh screen, protecting downstream valves, pumps and instruments.

How is a Y-strainer cleaned?

The screen is removed and cleaned, or the strainer is flushed through a blow-off connection on the drain port without taking it out of the line.

How do I choose the right screen size?

Select the mesh or perforation based on the smallest particle to be removed and the tolerance of the equipment downstream. Finer screens capture smaller particles but need cleaning more often.
