EATON Model 570 Multi-Basket 8″ to 24″ Basket Strainers
EATON Model 570 Duplex Basket Strainers remove damage causing particulate matter from the process media, and never have to be shut down for cleaning…the line can run continuously. When one set of strainer baskets becomes full in the Model 570 multi-basket strainer, flow is switched to the other set. The first set of basket is removed, cleaned and are ready for use again.

Overview
The Eaton Model 570 Duplex Basket Strainer has been specifically designed to remove potential damage causing particles from large volumes of water and other process media (up to 30,000 gpm) efficiently and cost effectively. The strainer operates continuously and the pipeline flow never has to be shut down for strainer basket cleaning. Flow is switched from one basket chamber to the other by a sliding gate mechanism operated by hand wheels. The free floating valve disc mechanism moves easily and does not bind. The valve operating stem is fully enclosed, protecting it from the fluid flow.
The EATON Model 570 is a multi-basket strainer, providing four baskets in each of the two straining chambers for a total of eight per duplex strainer. This makes the Model 570 a very compact unit for its size with a low profile, ideal for tight installations where space is a problem. And even if space is not a problem, why use a strainer that takes up more valuable floor space than is necessary?
Because of the multi-basket design, the individual baskets are smaller and lighter than would be possible with just a single basket. And just one person can remove and clean the baskets easily and rapidly. Lifting tackle is not needed to remove the baskets from the strainer housing. The baskets feature a unique, angled top to permit direct fluid entry that contributes to the strainers low pressure drop. Because of the large open area ratio in the baskets, they have an unusually high dirt folding capacity which results in a longer cycle between basket cleaning. Over time the savings in labor and downtime for basket cleaning will be considerable.
