Safety, installation and maintenance instruction Y Strainers shall be installed preferably with the pocket pointing downwards in liquid pipelines, for better collection in the screen. In gas or steam pipelines, the installation shall be installed preferably with the pocket in the horizontal plane, in order to reduce the condensate accumulation and consequently waterhammer and erosion. For more details, see the installation and maintenance manual supplied with the product.
