5 MAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN FILTERS AND STRAINERS FOR HVAC SYSTEMS | One quick question to ask, “What’s the point of it? Is the purpose of the primary application to protect equipment or for purifying the fluid? 💦Other main differentiating factors that we need to discuss are the particle size removal capability, filtration efficiency, impact on flow rates, and maintenance requirements. 1. Particle Size Removal: Filters are designed to remove smaller particles, while strainers are used to remove larger particles. Filters provide a finer level of filtration compared to strainers. 2. Filtration Efficiency: Filters generally offer higher filtration efficiency than strainers due to their smaller pore size and tighter filtration media. Filters are better suited for applications requiring higher purity levels. 3. Flow Rate Impact: Strainers have a minimal impact on flow rates, while filters can cause a significant pressure drop and reduction in flow rates as they become clogged over time. 4. Maintenance: Strainer screens can be cleaned and reused, while filter media typically needs to be replaced once clogged. Filters generally require more frequent maintenance or replacement compared to strainers. 5. Applications: Strainers are primarily used to protect downstream equipment from larger debris, while filters are used for purifying fluids and removing smaller contaminants. 📽️📺COOL VISUAL- Check out this quick video by Tony Mormino to get a visual of how exactly how Thomson Strainers by Miller-Leaman, Inc. work.👇 #hvac #hvacdesign #buildingperformance #hvacsystems #IndoorAirQuality #FacilityManagement #energy #HVACcontrols #hvacmaintenance #EfficientComfort #HVACExpertise #commercialhvac #airconditioning #energysolutions #energyefficiency #heatingandcooling #BuildingOperations #HVACequipment #filtration
