Frequently Asked Questions
What industries use Basket Strainer?
LibertyCES has documented Basket Strainer specified across 1 sector application, including Aquatics / Aquariums / Water Parks / Zoos / Swimming Pools.
How is Basket Strainer used in Aquatics / Aquariums / Water Parks / Zoos / Swimming Pools?
SW/SWX/ESW/RSW is Fluidtrol's own 'most popular' line, 30+ years in production, purpose-built for pool/aquarium service. Duplex strainers are explicitly named for water parks, commercial pools and aquariums — zero-downtime cleaning is the real aquatic driver. — examples include Fluidtrol SW / SWX / ESW / RSW aquatic basket strainers (composite FRP/PVC or 304SS, clear acrylic lid, machined solid 316SS T-handle, up to 24"; AWS D1.1, AWS D1.3, ASME B31.4, ASME B31.9), Fluidtrol Duplex Basket Strainers (PVC/CPVC/PP/FRP/PVDF, twin chambers + isolation valves, rated 6 fps of line size), Fluidtrol GS Series thermoplastic-lined FRP (150 psi @ 73°F, 10-200 mesh, 3"-16"). This is well-documented in LibertyCES's field data.
