Chemical Resistant Strainer

F.P.T. Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) Strainers

P-150 FRP Strainer

P-150 is a Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic strainer system manufactured with premium grades of vinylester resin: Derakane 411 or Hetron 922. Fluidtrol Strainers feature a five part construction. These strainers are chemically tolerant of many industrail and process chemical.

Materials of Construction

Two Chemical Barriers: Nominal thickness 10 mils of Nexus veil, resin to 10% reinforcement. (Layers 1 & 4)
Anti-wicking barrier: 100 mil of chopped strand glass, 75% resin to 25% reinforcement. (Layer 2)
Structural Layer: Filament wound continuous roving, wind angle 55 deg: 30% resin to 70% reinforcement. (Layer 3)
Exterior Protection: Paraffinated resin coating containing U.V. inhibitor. 10 mil thickness. (Layer 5)

This construction offers the finest in chemical and impact resistance. An abrasion resistant construction is available. Specify A-150.

Duplex Strainers

F.P.T. offers two styles of duplex basket strainers, horizontal in-line and vertical off-set. For details, see our Industrial Strainer page. F.P.T. also offers a manifold WYE strainer system.

Design Features

All inlets and outlets are of flanged construction as standard.
Fluidtrol FRP strainers are supplied with flanged tops and Teflon envelope style gasket. Other covers are optional.

Port configurations: As standard all basket strainers are of in-line design. For special applications off-set, angled off-set and boot configurations are available.

PRESSURE DROP: F.P.T. basket strainers are engineered to provide the lowest practical pressure loss. Basket open area averages 5 times the cross sectional area of the pipe.

Accessories

Pressure Taps (1/2" npt) are available with any of the following:

gauges for visual readout
pressure switch with audible and visual alarm
pressure switch with contact closure
