Model 72SJ Steam Jacketed Basket Strainer

Steam jacketed strainers are used for applications where materials must be kept hot in order to remain fluid. Applications examples are chocolate, asphalt, resins and polymers. The strainer body temperature is maintained by circulating steam or a heat transfer fluid through the strainer jacket. The strainer body is provided with either a carbon steel or a stainless steel jacket welded to the cast body. The jacket will handle steam pressures up to 100 psi.

The basic strainer used in the Model 72SJ is our popular Model 72 Basket Strainer which has, over the years, proven itself a standard of industry. All of the features of the Model 72 have been retained, including large capacity baskets and yoke type, hand removable covers for quick basket cleaning or change out.

Description

The body and cover of the strainer are lined, not just coated, with Tefzel. This protects all wetted surfaces of the strainer making it impervious to attack by chemicals that can cause rapid deterioration of other types of plastics and all but the most costly metal alloys. The Tefzel fluoropolymer lining is inert to strong mineral acids, inorganic bases, halogens and metal salt solutions. Even carboxylic acids, anhydrides, aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, ethers, esters, chlorocarbons and classic polymer solvents have little effect on the Tefzel lining. Service temperatures can range up to 300F in many applications. The lining also displays excellent mechanical strength when handling abrasive slurries.

Fitted with fluoropolymer coated baskets or mesh baskets made of Monel or Hastelloy C these strainers can be used in almost any lined piping or similar corrosive/abrasive strainer application.
