Angle TEE Strainers Conaco Type 407

Conaco Type 407 are angle/TEE line strainers for industrial piping systems, featuring a butt-welded tee body, flanged cover, and flanged or butt-welded ends. Typical installation is upstream of pumps, control valves, turbines, flow meters, and process equipment, especially where piping geometry or access requirements favor a TEE configuration over a standard Y-strainer.

Manufacturing Range

• Type: Angle TEE Strainer, Type 407.
• ANSI rating: Class 150 to Class 2500.
• Sizes: 2″ to 60″ and above.
• Connections: flanged, butt-weld, clamps, or special flanges.
• Cover: flanged, for internal element access.

Materials and Media Compatibility

Available in carbon steel, low carbon steel, alloy steels, high alloys, and special alloys. Material selection should be based on piping class, temperature, media corrosivity, weldability, and project specifications for chemicals, gases, hydrocarbons, process water, or utility networks.

Screen and Internal Configurations

Screens can be double or triple layer, mesh on perforated plate, or mesh-on-mesh. Magnetic assemblies are available for ferrous particle retention. Basket types include bath-tub, dutch shoe, or custom geometries.

Drain, Lining, and Coating

Drain options include nipples, flanges, valves, and plugs. For aggressive media or environments, epoxy lining, cladding, rubberizing, and project-specific coating systems are available.

Selection Criteria

Selection is based on ANSI class, DN, flow rate, allowable pressure drop, mesh size, open area, cover access, and requirements for drain or internal lining.

FAQ

When is an angle/TEE strainer selected?
When piping layout, cleaning access, or large basket requirements cannot be met by a standard Y-strainer.

Can it be fitted with an actuator?
No. This is a passive in-line filter.

When is a magnetic assembly required?
For systems with ferrous particles from corrosion, welding, or equipment wear.
