How it works
The recommended flow direction is to allow the liquid to enter the inlet (A). The particles strained collect inside the filter element which facilitates cleaning, especially if the handle points downwards or if the strainer is installed in a horizontal position. The liquid leaves the strainer through the side outlet (B). However, it is possible to allow the liquid to enter the inlet (B) since the perforated tube is designed to withstand the pressure drop in both flow directions. The liquid leaves the strainer through the outlet (A). If side connection (B) is used as the inlet, then the maximum product pressure is 7 bar
