Strainers

Why use Zetkama industrial strainers?

Zetkama’s zSTRA series strainers are essential for maintaining system cleanliness and operational efficiency across industrial installations. Designed to filter out solids and contaminants from process media, these Y-type industrial strainers protect valves, pumps, and instrumentation from premature wear or failure. Built for durability, they ensure uninterrupted system performance in even the most demanding environments.

Technical advantages of Zetkama strainers

Each Zetkama strainer is engineered for resilience and adaptability. With sizes ranging from DN 10 to DN 400 and pressure ratings up to PN 40, these strainers operate within a wide temperature range—from -60°C to +450°C—making them ideal for thermal, chemical, and mechanical applications. Manufactured from materials like grey cast iron, nodular cast iron, cast steel, and stainless steel, they offer strength and corrosion resistance. Stainless steel mesh strainer elements come in standard and fine mesh sizes (from 1.25 mm down to 0.25 mm upon request), offering high filtration efficiency for various fluids.

Durable materials and efficient filtration

Zetkama industrial filters are built for longevity. High-grade body materials and stainless steel screens ensure resistance to corrosion, pressure, and thermal stress. Mesh strainer options with reinforced rings and baskets improve mechanical strength, especially in high-flow or debris-laden systems. Optional magnetic inserts enhance the unit’s ability to trap ferromagnetic particles, further safeguarding critical components downstream.

Industrial applications of mesh strainers

Zetkama’s industrial sieves are used across sectors where fluid purity and system integrity are essential:

• Industrial Water Systems: Removing solid impurities to protect downstream equipment.
• HVAC Installations: Ensuring clean media in heating and cooling networks.
• Steam and Thermal Systems: Filtering debris to protect valves and boilers.
• Shipbuilding: Enhancing reliability of marine fluid circuits.
• Chemical and Petrochemical Plants: Filtering corrosive or hazardous fluids safely.
• Pneumatic Systems: Acting as an industrial water filter and debris trap in air circuits.
• Power Plants: Protecting turbines and control valves from solids in process media.

Key features and operational benefits

Zetkama industrial strainers are built for operational convenience. Their compact design supports installation in tight spaces, while horizontal and vertical mounting compatibility adds flexibility. The easy-access cap design enables screen cleaning or replacement without removing the strainer from the pipeline—minimizing downtime. A full range of mesh sizes allows for precise filtration tailored to system requirements, making these strainers a reliable solution in both standard and custom setups.
