Conbraco 59-002-01 Strainer

The Conbraco 59-002-01 Strainer is a heavy-pattern 3/8" NPT Bronze Y Strainer designed for high-performance scale and debris removal in demanding piping systems. Engineered with a rugged ASTM B584 cast bronze body, this wye strainer provides exceptional corrosion resistance, making it a reliable choice for HVAC filtration and process equipment protection. It features a 304 stainless steel 50 mesh screen that offers a 3.2 sq. in. net screen area, ensuring low pressure drop while capturing fine particulates. Rated for 125 PSIG saturated steam and up to 400 PSI CWP (Cold Working Pressure), this unit handles temperatures reaching 350°F. The tapped cap allows for easy blow-off valve installation to facilitate inline flushing without system teardown. For contractors, the self-aligning screen design and PTFE seals ensure a leak-proof fit and straightforward maintenance in both residential and commercial fluid filtration applications.

• Enhanced Equipment Protection: Safeguards sensitive components like control valves, pumps, and regulators from abrasive sediment and pipe scale.
• Superior Material Durability: The cast bronze construction and stainless steel mesh resist de-alloying and erosion in steam and water service.
• Efficient Maintenance: Features a threaded cap with a 1/4" NPT tapping for optional blow-off, enabling fast debris clearing.
• Precision Filtration: The 50 mesh screen provides the ideal balance between high flow rates and effective particle retention for 3/8-inch lines.

What is the maximum pressure rating for steam applications?
This bronze Y-strainer is rated for 125 PSIG in saturated steam service at temperatures up to 350°F.

Can the screen be cleaned without removing the body from the line?
Yes, the Y-pattern design and tapped cap allow for screen access or blow-down flushing while the strainer remains installed in the piping system.

What fluids are compatible with the Apollo 59 Series?
It is suitable for a wide range of media, including water, oil, gas, and steam, provided the chemistry is compatible with ASTM B584 bronze and PTFE seals.
