Installation & Operation Reference the Hygienic Component Solutions catalog for Cv information to determine the pressure drops, along with dimensional information. As-built drawings for each strainer are also supplied with the turnover package. Safety Precautions 1. Do not exceed temperature or pressure rating of strainer assembly. 2. Do not loosen or remove any clamps while the strainer is under pressure. 3. Lockout supply pump(s) and other equipment in-line with the strainer during cleaning to prevent accidental operation when strainer is open. 4. Use protective gloves when removing strainer element and clearing debris from element. 5. Use only Sani-Matic replacement parts.
The High Purity ALB strainer inlet configuration options are as shown:
Figure 1: Inlet Configurations Hygienic ALB Strainer High Purity ALB strainers are designed for flowing into the side tangential connection and out of the end connection. The strainer can be installed vertically, horizontally or at an angle (45° - 90°) to ensure full drainability. Air is eliminated during operation due to the sweeping action of the liquid so long as the velocity is high enough to remove the air. Minimum recommended flowrates for air removal are shown in table 3. Soils will be collected inside of the strainer element so soil particulates will be removed from the housing along with the element as it is removed from the housing.
