Tee Type Strainers

Falcon Tee Type Strainers

The Falcon Tee Type Strainer is a high-efficiency filtration solution engineered for pipelines where space is limited. Designed for both horizontal and vertical installation, these strainers provide robust protection for pumps, valves, and downstream equipment.

Design & Engineering

• Compact Geometry: The "T" configuration allows for a smaller footprint compared to traditional basket strainers.

• Ease of Access: Designed with a removable cover (bolted or quick-opening) for rapid screen cleaning and maintenance without disturbing the piping.

• Flow Efficiency: Internal chamber design ensures a high open-area ratio to minimize pressure drop.

Specialized Manufacturing

We leverage our core expertise in metallurgy to manufacture strainers that survive the world's most aggressive fluids.

• Exotic Materials: Specialists in Nickel Alloys, Stainless Steel, Titanium, Zirconium, and Tantalum.

• Precision Fabrication: Advanced welding techniques tailored to the specific thermal and chemical properties of high-grade alloys.

• Customization: Available in a wide range of wall thicknesses and nozzle configurations to meet specific process requirements.

Quality & Testing

Every Falcon Tee Strainer is subjected to a comprehensive quality protocol to ensure mechanical integrity and material purity.

• Material Verification: Strict PMI (Positive Material Identification) to guarantee the correct alloy grade.

• Welding Standards: All joints are welded by certified professionals specializing in corrosion-resistant alloys.

• Pressure Testing: Mandatory Hydrostatic and Pneumatic testing to verify leak-proof performance.

• Inspection: Non-destructive testing (NDT), including Dye Penetrant and Radiographic examination, available upon request.

ndustrial Applications

Falcon Tee Type Strainers are engineered for critical service environments where material integrity is non-negotiable.

• Corrosive Chemical Processing: Ideal for pipelines carrying aggressive acids or reactive chemicals that require the extreme resistance of Zirconium or Tantalum.

• Oil & Gas Refineries: Used to protect downstream equipment from debris in high-pressure and high-temperature environments using Nickel Alloys and Special Grades.

• Marine & Offshore: Utilizing Titanium and Stainless Steel to prevent salt-water corrosion in cooling and processing systems.

• High-Purity Manufacturing: Serving industries that require the inert properties of high-grade alloys to prevent batch contamination.

Key Benefits 1. Superior Material Durability

By specializing in Nickel Alloys, Titanium, and Zirconium, Falcon strainers provide a service life that exceeds standard components. Our use of special grades ensures the strainer body and element can withstand chemical attack, reducing the need for frequent replacements.

2. Space-Saving Design

The compact "T" configuration allows for installation in tight piping layouts where larger basket strainers cannot fit. This makes them the perfect choice for compact industrial skids.

3. Ease of Maintenance

The design features a removable cover that allows for quick access to the internal screen. Maintenance teams can clean or replace the filter element without removing the strainer from the pipeline, significantly reducing operational downtime.

4. Installation Flexibility

Falcon Tee Type Strainers are highly adaptable and can be configured for:

• Horizontal flow lines.

• Vertical flow lines.

• Replacement of existing pipe tees to add filtration capabilities to an existing system.
