How to Identify and Measure Fittings

Pipe size is an industry designation, not the actual size. View information about how to measure threaded and unthreaded pipe and pipe fittings.

Max. Pressure for Beverage, Dairy, Food, Pharmaceuticals, and Water: 150 psi @ 72° F
Temp. Range: -50° to 275° F

Add these inline T-strainers to your sanitary process line to trap solid particles during clean-in-place (CIP) cycles. They have quick-clamp sanitary tube connections, also known as tri-clamp connections, for use in dairy, food, and other process lines that require frequent cleaning and disassembly. As the high-pressure cleaning fluid flows through your line, the strainer's screen catches particles larger than 1/8" to prevent damage to pumps, valves, and other downstream components. And because the total open area of the screen is larger than the area of the tube itself, the screen will not restrict flow.

Strainers come with a gasket and clamp to secure the screen inside the strainer. Gaskets and clamps for connecting the strainer to your line are sold separately. A handle lets you remove the screen to clean it between runs.

Screens for Stainless Steel Quick-Clamp T-Strainers

Use these replacement screens with our Stainless Steel Quick-Clamp T-Strainers. Designed for use in dairy, food, and other process lines that use clean-in-place (CIP) systems, they prevent damage to pumps, valves, and other downstream components. Insert the screen into the strainer, then add a gasket and clamp to seal. The screen catches particles larger than 1/8" without restricting flow.

Sanitary Magnetic Strainers

For Use With: Beverage, Dairy, Food, Salt Solutions, Sodium Nitrate, Water
Max. Pressure: 150 psi @ 225° F
Temp. Range: -20° to 225° F

Draw metal shavings and other contaminants out of your sanitary liquid line with these strainers. As liquid swirls through the strainer cavity, magnets sealed inside capture any metal bits. Remaining impurities are separated out with gravity and trapped in a collection sump. Empty the strainers by removing the lid and scooping up the collected particles at the bottom of the enclosure.

Made from 316 stainless steel, these strainers will not corrode from frequent washdowns with harsh cleaners. The continuous weld seams and polished surfaces are free of pits and crevices where bacteria could grow, making them easy to sanitize. These strainers are also rated for high temperatures, so you can keep them on your line during a heated clean-in-place (CIP) process. They are FDA compliant, meaning they are safe for food contact.

For frequent deep cleans and line changes, choose a strainer with quick clamp connections. Also known as tri-clamp fittings, they connect with a gasket, a clamp, and another quick-clamp fitting for quick removal and assembly. The included gaskets are FDA compliant.

To connect strainers with flanged connections to your line, bolt two same-size flanges together with a gasket (sold separately) in between.

Filters that are USDA certified meet the highest standards of sanitary design.

Stainless Steel Filter Bag Housings

These filter bag housings resist corrosion for a long service life in harsh environments. They have a high-flow capacity for filtering large quantities of material. Housings come with a strainer basket to support a filter bag (sold separately). They have a threaded drain with a plug for easy cleaning. Bolt the legs to the floor for stability.

304 stainless steel housings offer very good corrosion resistance.

316 stainless steel housings have excellent corrosion resistance.

Housings with eyebolt cover provide a tight seal.

Housings with clamp cover allow for easy access to the filter bag for quick replacements.

The optional strainer baskets (sold separately) are for use with Styles A and D. Only the baskets with 9/64" perforations will work with a filter bag.

The optional high-purity cartridges are also known as absolute-rated cartridges; they filter 99.9% of particles. They are for use with Style B.

To Order: For optional perforated strainer baskets, please specify the opening size: 1/16”, 9/64”, 3/16”, or 1/4”. For optional mesh strainer baskets, please specify a mesh size: 20 × 20, 40 × 40, 60 × 60, 100 × 100, or 150 × 150.

Plastic Filter Bag Housings

Polypropylene Plastic Housing

Choose plastic filter bag housings as a lightweight alternative to metal. They offer excellent corrosion resistance. Housings come with a strainer basket to support a filter bag (sold separately). They are opaque, so they block light to minimize algae growth.

Faucet-Mount Plastic Filter Housings with Cartridge for Drinking Water

Filter Housing

Replacement Cartridge

Tap into great-tasting water by screwing this filter directly onto your faucet. It comes with a cartridge that filters out sediment, chlorine, and other particles that cause unpleasant tastes and odors. The cartridge lasts approximately two months or 200 gallons of water. Filter housing is opaque white so it blocks light to minimize algae growth. It is not recommended for hot water.

Replacement Cartridge

Prepare water for use in beverages, food preparation, and ice production. These filter housings come with a cartridge that prevents scale formation, which can damage equipment. They also come with adapters and a length of tubing for under-sink installation between a water line and faucet. Both the filter and the cartridge meet NSF/ANSI 42 and 53 for use with drinking (potable) water.

Filter housings with a flow-control valve let you stop the flow to replace the cartridge.
