A Bolted Bonnet Strainer is a specialized type of flow control device that features a bolted bonnet, which securely fastens to the valve body. This design not only enhances the strainer's structural integrity but also facilitates easy access for maintenance and cleaning.
The bolted bonnet design is particularly advantageous as it allows for reliable and leak-tight sealing, which is achieved through the use of a spherical closure mechanism. This ensures that the strainer can effectively perform its primary function of removing solid particles and contaminants from the fluid flow.
