Description
2" BSP 316 Stainless Steel Y Strainer Filter – 16 Bar
The YS2SS is a 2" BSP 316 stainless steel Y pattern filter strainer designed to remove dirt, debris and solid particles from liquid, air, steam and compatible process media.
Featuring a 0.45mm stainless steel filter mesh, the Y strainer helps protect downstream valves, pumps, regulators, flow equipment and other process components from contamination and particulate damage.
The CNC machined 316 stainless steel body provides excellent corrosion resistance for industrial and process applications, while the removable filter assembly allows the strainer element to be accessed for inspection and cleaning.
Rated for operating pressures from 0 to 16 Bar and pressure tested to 55 Bar, the YS2SS can be installed in any mounting position and operates across a wide media temperature range from -29°C to +232°C.
Port & Filtration
Port Size: 2" BSP
Optional Thread: NPT
Orifice: 50mm
Filter Mesh: 0.45mm
Filter Material: 304 stainless steel
The 0.45mm mesh is designed to capture debris and solid particles larger than approximately 0.45mm, helping prevent contamination from reaching downstream equipment.
Pressure & Temperature
Operating Pressure: 0 to 16 Bar
Pressure Test: 55 Bar
Media Temperature: -29°C to +232°C
Mounting Position: Any position
The wide pressure and temperature range makes this stainless steel Y strainer suitable for a variety of industrial fluid, pneumatic and steam filtration applications.
Construction
Body: 316 stainless steel
Cover: CF8M stainless steel
Filter Mesh: 304 stainless steel
Internal Parts: 304 stainless steel
Gasket: PTFE
Bolt Seal: PTFE
The combination of stainless steel and PTFE provides good resistance to corrosion and a broad range of industrial media, subject to chemical compatibility and operating conditions.
Suitable Media
✓ Water
✓ Air
✓ Steam
✓ Compatible acids
✓ Compatible liquids
✓ Corrosive process media
Media must be chemically compatible with the 316/304 stainless steel construction and PTFE seals.
Y Pattern Filtration
The Y-shaped body positions the stainless steel filter element at an angle to the main flow path, allowing solid contamination to be collected within the removable strainer section.
This makes Y strainers particularly useful for protecting solenoid valves, control valves, pumps, regulators and other equipment where debris within the pipeline could cause blockage, wear or unreliable operation.
Maintenance
The filter mesh can be removed for periodic inspection and cleaning, allowing collected contamination to be cleared without replacing the complete Y strainer.
Replacement filter mesh kits are available for the YSS Series.
Typical Applications
✓ Solenoid valve protection
✓ Pump inlet filtration
✓ Process water systems
✓ Steam systems
✓ Compressed air systems
✓ Chemical processing
✓ Industrial fluid systems
✓ Corrosive media applications
✓ Pipeline debris removal
