Viking Pump - Simplex Pump Strainers

Product details

Simplex Strainers provide protection for your pumping system with low pressure drop. The inclined position of the strainer basket adjacent to the porting provides smooth flow patterns not found in conventional basket-type strainers. Viking’s Lid-Ease Simplex Strainers reduce cleaning problems encountered with conventional strainers. Simple lid rotation disengages the breech lock type lid permitting easy removal of the basket. Basket is removed from the top of the strainer, possibly eliminating the need to completely drain the system or allowing foreign matter to drop back into the line when the strainer is cleaned. The relatively small port-to-port dimensions of the strainer allow easy installation. Viking Lid-Ease Simplex Strainers are designed with a weatherseal lid to protect the breech lock area from exterior elements and prevent air infiltration into the pump suction. Strainers are also equipped with a drain plug for complete draining of strainer if needed. Tapped or flanged end ports available

  LOW PRESSURE DROP

  Viking Lid-Ease Strainers are designed for minimal pressure drop through the unit.

  Pressure drop is minimized by the inclined position of the strainer basket adjacent to the porting.

  This provides smooth flow patterns not found in conventional basket type strainers.

   

  EASY TO CLEAN

  No special tools are needed for lid removal. A simple lid rotation disengages the breech-lock lid to permit easy removal of the basket. The basket is removed from the top of the strainer to eliminate foreign matter from dropping back into the line when the strainer is cleaned. The strainers are equipped with a drain plug for complete draining, if required. The light-weight and small overall dimensions make it possible to install Viking Lid-Ease Line Strainers in systems that cannot accommodate larger strainers of equal porting size.

  LOW PRESSURE DROP

   Viking Bolted-Lid Strainers are designed for minimal pressure drop through the unit. Pressure drop is minimized by the inclined position of the strainer basket adjacent to the porting. This provides smooth flow patterns not found in conventional basket type strainers.

   

  EASY TO CLEAN

  No special tools are needed for lid removal. Once bolts are removed with a standard wrench, lid is lifted to open the cover. The basket is removed from the top of the strainer to eliminate foreign matter from dropping back into the line when the strainer is cleaned. These strainers are equipped with a bottom drain plug for complete draining.
