Introduction
A self-cleaning strainer is a device installed in a pipe-
line to remove dirt and other unwanted debris from
fluids. Straining is accomplished by directing the fluid
through "sized" openings in perforated straining ele-
ments. Self-cleaning strainers have integral back-
wash systems designed to isolate and clean a small
portion of the element while the remaining area contin-
ues to strain normally. During operation, fluid flow
through the strainer is continuous. A small quantity of
"clean" fluid is used to wash the element and then
carry the concentrated debris away from the strainer
through the backwash system.
Read all instructions before installation or
operation of equipment. Failure to comply
with these instructions could result in
bodily injury or property damage.
