FAQ - DN900 Fabricated Simplex Basket Strainer
Q1: What is a DN900 Fabricated Simplex Basket Strainer?
A: A DN900 Fabricated Simplex Basket Strainer is a single-chamber basket type pipeline filter with a welded (fabricated) carbon steel body, designed for large diameter main pipeline service in DN900 (36 inch) size. It is rated to PN16 (DIN) or Class 150LB (ANSI) and available with flanged RF or FF ends to EN 1092-1 or ASME B16.47 A. The large cylindrical basket provides high dirt holding capacity and large filtration area, protecting downstream pumps, instruments and heat exchangers in water, gas, oil and steam service.
Q2: What is the difference between PN16 and Class 150LB for DN900 basket strainer?
A: PN16 is the European DIN pressure rating with design pressure of 16 bar (232 psi) and flange dimension to EN 1092-1; Class 150LB is the ANSI pressure rating with design pressure of 19.6 bar (285 psi) and flange dimension to ASME B16.47 A for sizes above 24 inch. Both ratings are available for DN900 fabricated basket strainer and are comparable in pressure capability. The choice depends on the project standard: PN16 for European standard piping systems and Class 150LB for ASME standard piping systems. Flange dimensions and bolt patterns differ between the two standards.
Q3: Why is the body material A234 WPB and A106 for DN900 basket strainer?
A: A234 WPB is the ASTM standard wrought carbon steel fitting material, which has excellent weldability and is the standard choice for fabricated strainer body and pipe fittings. A106 is the seamless carbon steel pipe for high-temperature service, used for the cylindrical body section of large diameter basket strainer. Both materials are widely used in large diameter pipeline, district heating and power plant cooling water systems. For large diameter basket strainer above 24 inch, the fabricated body from A234 WPB and A106 offers shorter lead time and lighter weight compared to cast body.
Q4: What end connections are available for DN900 basket strainer?
A: DN900 fabricated basket strainer is available with Flanged RF (Raised Face) or FF (Flat Face) ends. For PN16 standard, the flange is to EN 1092-1 with FF or RF face. For Class 150LB standard, the flange above 24 inch is to ASME B16.47 A with RF face. Butt Weld (BW) ends to ASME B16.25 are also available on request for permanent connection. Face-to-face dimension follows ASME B16.10 or EN 558. Cover type is bolted cover (B.C.) as standard; davit arm design is recommended for DN900 heavy cover lifting without crane.
Q5: What screen and mesh sizes are available for DN900 basket strainer?
A: Screens are supplied in stainless steel 304SS, 316SS as standard, and duplex 2205, super duplex 2507 for seawater and offshore service. Mesh sizes include 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 200 and 400 mesh, tailor-made to customer requirements. For DN900 large diameter main pipeline, 20 to 40 mesh is common for water transmission and district heating; 60 to 100 mesh is specified for pump protection and fine chemical service. The perforated plate and wire mesh can be combined for high dirt load service. Please specify the mesh size when requesting a quotation.
Q6: How do I maintain a DN900 fabricated basket strainer?
A: Maintenance is simple: isolate the strainer, depressurize, remove the cover bolts (bolted cover design), take out the basket, clean or replace the screen and mesh, install a new gasket, and reassemble. For DN900 heavy cover, a davit arm design is strongly recommended to lift the cover without crane. The bolted cover design allows basket removal without disconnecting the pipeline. Screen replacement is recommended when the pressure drop exceeds the initial clean-screen value by 0.5-1.0 bar. For continuous operation without pipeline shutdown, a duplex basket strainer configuration is recommended.
