Model 53BTX Duplex Basket Strainer, 3/4" to 4"
Iron, Bronze, Carbon Steel or Stainless Steel - Threaded or Flanged
The Model 53BTX strainer features Eaton’s patented diverter cartridge which isolates and seals the basket chamber leak tight, simplifying strainer basket cleaning and changing.
The Model 53BTX Duplex Strainer will give years of trouble-free service, protecting expensive pipeline system components from damage by unwanted particles. Because the system flow never has to be shut down for basket cleaning, the Model 53BTX strainer is perfect for lines that must run continuously or for batch systems that can’t be stopped. A quick, easy turn of the handle operates the diverter cartridge that switches the system flow from one basket chamber to the other, allowing the out of service basket to be cleaned or changed.
The Model 53BTX diverter cartridge has been designed for long service to reduce maintenance costs. A patented dynamic ball sealing system features polymer seats with elastomer seals for extended life. Should it become necessary to service the diverter cartridge, it’s easy to do. Just remove four bolts and the cartridge comes right out through the top of the strainer. There is no need to disassemble the strainer or remove it from the line.
Offered in pipeline sizes from 3⁄4” to 4”, the Model 53BTX can be supplied with threaded or flanged pipe connections. Stainless steel strainer baskets with a low-pressure drop design are standard – and you can choose perforations/mesh sizes from 1⁄2” down to 400 microns. Special alloy baskets are available as an option – as are differential pressure gauges and switches, magnetic separators, drain valves, a basket chamber vent and a pressure equalizing assembly.
