Flat temporary strainer

A flat temporary strainer is a plate-form screen installed at a pipeline joint for temporary debris collection. Its flat geometry distinguishes it from a conical type, but mesh, perforation, open area, thickness, and service duration are not established by the name. Mechanical load, pressure loss, and removal plan require engineering.

Application and duty

Temporary line straining during commissioning with a defined plate and removal plan
