Nozzle Filters & strainers
Sintered Filter Mesh Strainer
Sintered filters (for lower gph nozzles) are made of thousands of
tiny bronze pellets fused together into a most effective filtering
medium of uniform thickness and density. Delavan mesh strainers
are constructed of brass bodies and monel screens.
Nozzle filters and strainers cannot be expected to handle the
complete filtering job. A line filter between the tank and burner is
strongly recommended.
Line Filter with replaceable element.
Use Delavan’s line filter for extra filtration in burner applications
of 2.00 GPH or less.
These offer four times the filtering area of a standard nozzle
strainer and twice the protection.
Aplugged line filter can cause a pressure drop. Check the pressure
on the outlet side of the filter while the unit is flowing to see that
it is the same as the pump pressure. If less, replace filter.
• 1/8” NPT inlet and outlet threads
• Easy installation (see drawing)
NOTE: Replace the line filter during the annual service check for
an economical way to maintain clear lines.
