Mueller Steam is helping facility engineers detect when strainer maintenance is needed to prevent production downtime. New differential pressure monitoring technology now comes standard on the company’s duplex strainers and is optional on its wye strainers. With the purchase and activation of an add-on connection kit, the pre-installed pressure sensors at the inlet and outlet of the strainer monitor the pressure drop that occurs over time when a strainer screen becomes clogged by foreign particles. Alerts are triggered via an existing BMS connection or cellular gateway when the strainer basket is 75% full and 100% full. These sensors do not change the operation of the strainer – they still comply with all the necessary certifications and do not interfere with the normal function of the strainer.
