Angle Line Strainers

Schlueter Safgard Angle Line Strainers

Increase Process Uptime and Protect Product Integrity with the Right Strainer

The Safgard Angle Line (or Side Discharge) Strainers are ideal for processes seeking to increase uptime. Operators can clean the strainer inserts without removing the strainer body from the process line – saving time and labor.

For increased capacity, Angle Line Strainers can also be installed in parallel with individual shut-off valves so one unit can be cleaned while the other is remains in service.

The Angle Line Strainers also have directional flow characteristics – Standard and Reverse Flow to meet your current and future process needs.
