African Valve, a Duplex Basket Strainer Supplier in Nigeria, supplies duplex basket strainers for applications where filtration needs to continue while one basket is removed for cleaning. The two parallel filter chambers allow one chamber to remain in service while the other is isolated for maintenance.
This arrangement is particularly useful in continuous-process systems where shutting down the pipeline for routine basket cleaning is not practical. Duplex basket strainers are used across oil & gas, refining, petrochemical, chemical processing, water treatment, power generation, mining, marine and industrial utility systems.
