CPVC Sediment Strainer
A CPVC Sediment Strainer is a filtration device made from Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride (CPVC) that is installed in a piping system to remove solid particles such as sand, dirt, rust, and debris from liquids. It works by allowing fluid to pass through a perforated or mesh screen inside the strainer body, which traps unwanted solid contaminants while permitting clean fluid to continue flowing through the system. These are meant to capture any solid contaminants that may sometimes be in the line.
CPVC Sediment Strainer and other devices with small holes, such as pumps or control valves, are protected by filter strainer. The pump and meter are protected by CPVC Sediment Strainer, which removes suspended particles and contaminants. The position of the screen can be easily determined due to its transparent thermoplastic structure. Optional in-line cleaning valve flushes collected particles from hayward basket strainers. CPVC Sediment strainer is a great filtering capacity and minimum pressure drop.
