Strainers for Nuclear Applications

Strainers are used to remove coarse suspended particles from fluid systems. Thermon Heating Systems supplies strainers for capturing resin fines from deep bed ion exchange columns, up-stream strainers to protect pumps and other hydraulic rotating machinery and strainers for miscellaneous applications.

The broad product line includes: cast Y strainers, fabricated Tee strainers, in-line strainers, blow down strainers and duplex strainers. Strainer baskets are manufactured using either perforated stainless sheets or, for finer straining, wire mesh sandwiched between perforated sheets for strength. Baskets are designed for high rupture pressure.
