Stainless steel CF8M flanged T-strainer PN16 is a filtration device designed to remove solid debris from fluid systems, protecting downstream equipment such as pumps, valves, and meters. The CF8M material (cast equivalent of AISI 316) offers exceptional corrosion resistance for aggressive and marine environments . Its T-strainer configuration features a blow-off connection at the bottom of the strainer body, allowing convenient debris removal without dismantling the pipeline . The flanged ends comply with PN16 (16 bar / 232 psi) pressure rating, ensuring secure, leak-proof connections . Manufactured to EN 1092-1 flange standards and tested per EN 12266-1, these strainers are widely used in chemical processing, water treatment, petrochemical, food and beverage, and HVAC applications .
