Viking® Lid-Ease® Strainers
Viking Lid-Ease Basket
Strainers increase pump life by removing rust, scale, weld beads and
other material before they enter the pump elements. A strainer
eliminates foreign objects that can jam pumps, break parts and tear up
drives. That's why line strainers are recommended on the inlet side of
all positive displacement pumping systems.
These strainers are high-quality, easy to clean line strainers that are
designed for applications in the chemical, petrochemical and most
general fluid-flow industries. These single, or "simplex" style
strainers are offered with tapped, flanged or grooved porting and are
available for 3/4, 1, 1-1/4, 1-1/2, 2, 3, 4, 6, & 8 inch piping.
Nominal capacities range from 8 to 780 GPM with a rated pressure of up
to 200 PSI. The basket and screen are constructed of stainless steel.
The strainer bodies and lids are presently available in cast iron,
ductile iron, aluminum, or stainless steel.
Lid-Ease Strainers are specifically designed for minimal pressure drop
through the unit. Excellent pressure drop curves are achieved by
the inclined position of the strainer basket adjacent to the porting.
This provides smooth flow patterns not found in conventional basket type
strainers.
Their light-weight and small overall dimensions make it possible to
install these strainers in systems that cannot accommodate larger
strainers of equal porting size. |
