strainers have been designed to give a combined straining and pumping system in one compact and mobile unit. They provide a totally enclosed, self cleaning system for the removal of oversized particles from a wide range of liquid products. They can be used as individual units for batch production or built into a production system for continuous, automatic operation.

The unique and highly effective continuous self-cleaning system assures a high throughput and consistent quality at extremely low operating cost. It ensures that rapid colour or product changes can be made and give minimum product loss at change over.

The units are simple to use requiring only one operator for batch applications with little, if any, supervision when under automatic control. The strainer can also be supplied to pump to distant point.

The range of strainers can provide throughputs from 0-12000 litres per hour from four basic frame sizes which will be selected to suit a customer's particular requirements. Within each frame size several options are available to suit varying delivery, discharge and product needs. These can include different pump types and sizes, whether or not an input pump is to be fitted and a variety of materials of construction. In all cases an output pump is standard and the output can be pumped to a remote point if required.

The design can accommodate products of up to 200 poise as well as normal or shear sensitive products. A totally enclosed system enables materials with highly volatile elements to be handled without difficulty and enables the units to be shut down when full of product without any subsequent problems.

The largest strainers are able to provide sufficient output for even the very largest of automatic filling line.

The is inherently safe as highly volatile and toxic substances can be safely contained within its totally enclosed system.

There can be no overflowing and no pressure buildup. Should a blockage of the mesh occur at any time, the back washing pressure falls to zero; a safety feature which also protects the mesh and enables its continued use. Even under adverse operating conditions high pressures are automatically relieved by the sprung loaded back washing circuit.
