Usage of the product
The product is widely used for dust removal from various types of pipelines. Especially, a strainer shall
be installed upstream of a pressure reducing, temperature regulating, solenoid or trap valve to protect
and maintain it.
1. Features
(1) The product is a high-flow marine type with as large a filtration area as possible to avoid clogging and
consequent problems such as flow rate drop.
(2) Ones with a nominal size of 65A or above have been downsized to the possible minimum sizes and
thus ease the piping.
(3) SY-40C/40C-N is highly resistant to corrosion as it has the internal and external body surfaces coated
with nylon 11 or nylon 12.
(4) For the standard screens, 80 mesh ones are used for SY-40/40H and 60 mesh ones for
SY-40C/40C-N according to the common specifications for machinery and equipment installation
work.

5. Selection of nominal size
To make the best use of the strainer and satisfy the operating requirements to the maximum,
take notice of the following.
The preferred initial pressure loss is 0.02-0.03 MPa.
5.1 Selection of nominal size
Select a nominal size equivalent to that of the pipe (piping nominal size = nominal
size of strainer). Note that the use of a smaller nominal size increases the pressure loss
through the strainer, possibly reducing the machine inlet pressure below the specified limit.
5.2 Selection of piping nominal size
When selecting the piping nominal size, it is necessary to consider the fluid type, maximum
flow rate, permissible pressure loss, piping and equipment cost, etc. With a smaller piping nominal
size, the piping and equipment cost decreases but the pressure loss through the pipe increases to
generate disturbances, possibly resulting in pipe wear, noise and/or vibration. With too large a piping
nominal size, however, not only the piping and equipment cost but also the thermal loss increase. The
standard fluid velocity has been specified in the Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS) as a guide to
select an appropriate piping nominal size.

6. Installation procedure
6.1 Example of piping
[Figure 5] Horizontal piping [Figure 6] Vertical piping
(1) The amount of clogging matter may be estimated from the differential pressure measured with
pressure gauges installed upstream and downstream of the strainer. (See Figure 5.)
(2) They shall be installed with the cap (4) or cover (5) facing downward. If drainage or similar
problem may occur in a steam line, the cap (4) or cover (5) shall be installed so that the cap or
cover faces sideways.
(3) If the product can only be piped to run the fluid from the bottom to the top, a blow valve shall be
installed to remove the scale accumulated at the bottom of the riser pipe. (See Figure 6.)
6.2 Caution in installing the product
Warning
(1) The product is heavy and shall be securely suspended with a hoist or the like when
installed. For the weight of the product, see section 3 “Dimensions and weights.”
* Failure to suspend the product may cause it to fall down, possibly resulting in injury.
Caution
(1) When installing, install the pipe so that the fluid flowing direction follows arrow on the body.
* Connecting pipes in wrong directions prevents the product from performing as intended.
(2) Firmly support pipes and secure the product.
* If an excessive stress is applied to the pipes, the product may be deformed.
(3) When installing the product, reserve a space required for maintenance and inspection
(cleaning of the screen) as specified in Figure 7.
* Failure to do so prevents later maintenance and inspection (cleaning of the screen).
(4) Firmly connect pipes.
* If incompletely connected, the fluid may leak from pipes when vibration is applied. The
fluid may scald your skin.
(5) If no foreign matter is allowed to pass through the product, please contact us.
* The foreign matter corresponding to the specified mesh size may not be completely
caught constitutionally.

7. Operation procedure
7.1 Caution in operating the product
Warning
(1) Before letting the fluid into the product, check that there will be no possibility of danger if
fluid flows into the ends of piping.
* The hot fluid, if spouted out, may scald your skin.
* The fluid outflow may cause physical damage.
(2) After aerating, do not retighten the cap or cover gasket.
* Doing so may break the gasket, possibly resulting in external leak.
Caution
(1) Use the product with the maximum pressure loss below 0.1MPa. Periodically clean the
screen.
* The screen may be broken.
(1) The amount of screen clogging matter can be monitored with pressure gauges installed
upstream and downstream of the strainer.
8. Maintenance procedure
8.1 Troubleshooting
Problem Cause Solution
Fluid does not flow. 1. Screen (2) is clogged.
2. Upstream and downstream of
stop valves are closed.
1. Overhaul and clean screen (2).
2. Open the stop valves.
Excessive pressure
loss
1. Screen (2) is clogged.
2. Pressure gauge is out of order.
3. Nominal size is much
smaller than specified.
1. Overhaul and clean screen (2).
2. Replace pressure gauge with a
new one.
3. Change to adequate nominal size.

8.2 Caution in maintenance and inspection
Warning
(1) When overhauling or inspecting the product, check that the product and piping internal
pressures have been released to the atmosphere.
When the fluid is hot, cool it down until it can be touched by bare hand.
*The residual pressure in the product or piping may lead to injury or burn.
(2) When using a hot fluid, do not touch the product by bare hand.
*Doing so may scald your skin.
(3) Clean the screen periodically.
*Scale clogging to the screen may cause its damage.
8.3 Disassembly procedure
(1) After checking that no pressure remains in the strainer, remove the cap (4) and gasket (3) for 50A
or smaller ones or the hexagon nut (8), cover (5) and gasket (3) in this order for 65A or larger
ones.
(2) Remove the screen (2) from the body (1) and clean it. For 100A or larger ones, the screen (2) is
equipped with a strainer retainer (7). The strainer retainer (7) has usually been hung on the body
(1) and the screen (2) shall be removed by rotating to the point where the notch on the body (1)
is aligned with the strainer retainer (7). (See Figure 8.)
8.4 Caution in assembling after disassembly
Caution
(1) When assembling, completely assemble all parts.
*The parts may be deformed or broken.
(2) When assembling, replace the gasket with a new one and uniformly tighten bolts in the
diagonally opposite directions to prevent uneven tightening.
*The fluid may leak out. If hot, it may scald your skin.
8.5 Assembly procedure
(1) Clean the gasket mating faces of the body (1) and cap (4) or cover (5) and install the cleaned
screen (2) to the body (1). For 100A or larger ones, the screen (2) shall be installed with the
strainer retainer (7) aligned with the notch on the body (1) and rotated until the strainer retainer
(7) is hung on the body (1). (See Figure 8.)
(2) Install a new gasket (3) and install the cap (4) or cover (5).
