03.6 / CONICAL & TEMPORARY STRAINERS
Conical & Temporary Strainers
Conical or flat-bottom temporary elements intercept debris during pipeline commissioning. Continuous service requires assessment of filter area, pressure drop and maintenance access.
Start with a photo or drawing, even if some specifications are still unknown.

- Common materials
- SS304, SS316 / SS316L; confirm the alloy against the process medium.
- Construction options
- Cone, truncated cone or flat-bottom configurations; arrange perforated support and mesh layers for the flow direction.
- Dimensions
- Cone dimensions: flange diameter A, cone height L and installation thickness t.
- Filtration requirements
- Mesh count, wire diameter or target filtration rating; confirm the rating definition and verification method.
Dimensions to discuss
Not to scale. Letters identify dimensions to be confirmed.
Cone dimensions: flange diameter A, cone height L and installation thickness t.

- Key considerations
- The name alone does not decide this. Check continuous-service filter area, pressure monitoring and cleaning access against the equipment design.
Filtration knowledge & FAQs
Can a temporary strainer stay in the line permanently?
The name alone does not decide this. Check continuous-service filter area, pressure monitoring and cleaning access against the equipment design.
Is mesh count the same as filtration rating?
Mesh count describes openings per inch. Aperture also depends on wire diameter and weave; mesh count alone does not establish particle retention.
How do operating pressure and differential pressure differ?
Operating pressure is the system pressure. Differential pressure is the pressure difference across the element. Confirm operating pressure, clean pressure drop and maximum allowable differential pressure.
How are cleaning and maintenance determined?
Confirm cleaning methods, backwash conditions and replacement criteria against the equipment instructions and process medium, rather than appearance alone.
