Description
FIA strainers are used ahead of automatic controls, pumps,compressors etc., for initial plant start-up and where permanent filtration of the refrigerant is required. The strainer reduces the risk of undesirable system breakdowns and reduces wear and tear on plant components.
FIA strainers are equipped with a screen mesh of stainless steel, available in sizes 100, 150, 250 and 500µ(microns*), (US 150, 100, 72, 38 mesh*).
Features
■ Applicable to HCFC, HFC, R717 (Ammonia), R744 (CO2) and all flammable refrigerants.
■ Modular Concept:
– Each valve housing is available with several different connection types and sizes.
– Possible to convert FIA strainers to any other product in the FlexlineTM SVL family (shut-off valve, hand operated regulating valve, check & stop valve or check valve) just by replacing the complete top part.
■ Fast and easy overhaul service. It is easy to replace the top part and no welding is needed.
■ Filter net of stainless steel mounted direct without extra gaskets means easy servicing.
■ Two types of strainer inserts are available:
- A plain insert of stainless steel.
- A pleated insert (DN 15-200) with extra large surface, which ensures long intervals between cleaning and low pressure drop.
■ FIA 15-40 (½ – 1 ½ in.): A special insert (50µ) can be used in combination with a standard version when cleaning a plant during commissioning.
■ FIA 50-200 (2 - 8 in.): A large capacity filter bag (50µ) can be inserted for cleaning plant during commissioning.
■ FIA 80-200 (3 - 8 in.) can be equipped with a magnetic insert for detention of iron particles and other magnetic particles.
■ Each strainer clearly marked with type, size and performance range
■ Housing and bonnet of low temperature steel in accordance with the requirements of the Pressure Equipment Directive and those of other international classification authorities
■ Temperature range: –60/+150°C (–76/+302°F)
■ Max. working pressure: 52 bar g (754 psi g)
■ Classification: DNV, CRN, BV, EAC etc. To get an updated list of certification on the products please contact your local Danfoss Sales Company
