Strainers

Trainer: Engr. Adeyemi

About this Course

Strainers Course typically focuses on the design, selection, installation, and maintenance of strainers used in industrial systems to filter debris, particulates, and contaminants from fluids (liquids or gases).

This course will not only improve participant’s understanding of the technology behind strainers but also help them develop practical skills for maintaining reliable, efficient, and safe filtration systems. Whether you’re involved in industrial process design, maintenance, or operations, such training can improve system performance, reduce downtime, and ensure compliance with safety standards.

The following codes and standards will be reference for this training; ASME, ASTM (A216, A351 & A312), API (614 & 610), ISO (9001 & 15156), MSS (SP-40, SP-45 & SP-82), NFPA (20 & 30), ANSI (B16.34 & B16.5), depending on the specific application of the strainer.
