Conical Strainer

The Barton Firtop Conical Strainer is a simple yet effective filtration device primarily designed for temporary or commissioning service within pipeline systems. Installed directly between pipe flanges, it provides an economical solution for removing large debris and solid contaminants during system start-up or testing phases. Available in “witch-hat” and “top-hat” configurations, the conical strainer offers flexibility for both horizontal and vertical installations. While it provides reliable protection at low cost, its limited dirt-holding capacity and the need for full spool removal during cleaning make it less suited for continuous-duty applications. Barton Firtop manufactures these strainers in a wide range of sizes and pressure ratings, using high-quality materials such as stainless steel, duplex, super duplex, and exotic alloys to meet diverse process requirements.

Conical Strainer

Using FEA and CFD to design our strainers, we cater for client specified Minimum Safe Working Differential Pressures (MSWDP) with a minimum of 1.0 bar MSWDP (up to 24” NB). A conical strainer should be installed with the ‘pointed end’ flow-facing to avoid excessive turbulence which can be caused by vortexes that occur when the flow runs in the opposing direction. We don’t highly recommend conical strainers, as they are costly to maintain when the entire pipe spool requires dismantling for cleaning access. For commissioning applications, operators prefer T-Type or Y-Type strainers that ‘payback’ during the commissioning cycle, due to the single flange screen access making cleaning quicker and easier. If a Conical strainer is mandatory, we recommend the ‘Witch-Hat” type is deployed.
