We've got you covered!

The Eaton Model 73 simplex basket strainer is a premier solution for high flow applications and large diameter pipelines. Specifically engineered for 10" to 18" piping systems, this strainer model features a straight through flow design that greatly minimizes pressure loss and is ideal for demanding industrial applications with fine-tuned operating parameters. The strainer has a compact, low profile build that allows it to fit into tight spaces where other large strainers cannot without sacrificing performance.
The Model 73 is built from durable Cast Iron or Bronze for heavy duty industrial filtration and long term dependability even in harsh working conditions. It is ideal for applications that require continuous, high flow rates, such as water and wastewater treatment, chemical processing, power generation, and marine operations. This is an American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) approved marine grade strainer and meets the standards required for ship designers and builders.
The Eaton Model 73 features a convoluted basket design. This means the perforated or mesh screen has been pleated to increase the effective straining area without a major increase in basket size. This pleated basket design extends the time between cleaning cycles and reduces basket weight, making manual removal easier. The strainer has a quick open cover for fast access to the basket chamber and tool free maintenance that reduces shutdown time.
