A basket strainer is a pipeline device designed to remove solid debris from liquids. By trapping particles in a mesh-lined basket, it helps protect pumps, valves, and other critical components from damage. This article will cover how basket strainers work, their key features, and why they’re essential for system efficiency. Key Takeaways What is a […]
Butterfly valves — Valves identifiable by their butterfly-like disc which handles fluid flow, follow a 90 rotation which controls their opening/closing. And that’s why they’re also termed as quarter turn valves. Once lined with layers of PFA or PTFE, these butterfly valves can handle strong chemicals and higher temperatures.

Pneumatic Pinch valves are fast-acting valves that control fluid flow. When left alone, these valves are open, allowing fluid flow. Pneumatic pinch valves use compressed air to pinch the elastomeric internal sleeve at the center to close the valve. Pinch valves are apt for operations that need to deal with grainy or corrosive fluids. And […]
