The Y type filter is a Y-shaped filtering device with internal thread connection. It is mainly used to filter impurities in the pipeline and protect subsequent valves and equipment. Here is a detailed introduction:
- Structural features: The Y-type filter has a simple structure, with an Y-shaped appearance. It contains detachable filters inside, which makes it easy to remove impurities. It features a large flow area, low pressure loss, and strong resistance to pollution.
- Technical parameters: The material of the shell can be carbon steel, brass, stainless steel, etc.; the nominal pressure is generally 0.6MPa – 5.0MPa; the filtration accuracy is 10 mesh – 300 mesh; the environmental temperature ranges from -30℃ to 425℃, depending on the material.
- Connection method: It adopts internal thread connection, and also has socket weld connection form. It features convenient installation and excellent sealing performance.
- Working principle: Fluid enters the filter through the inlet, passes through the filter screen for filtration, and the clean fluid is discharged from the outlet while the impurities are trapped within the filter screen. When cleaning is required, remove the filter cartridge, clean it, and then reinstall it.
- Application fields: Suitable for filtration of various media such as water, oil, and gas. It can be installed at the inlet end of equipment like pressure reducers and pressure relief valves, and is widely used in industries such as chemical engineering, petroleum, and water supply and drainage.
