Industrial Y Strainer for Oil Steam Water
The BELL AND GOSSETT 420C Y Strainer is a cast brass filter built for 3/4 inch FNPT piping. It handles oil steam and water in industrial and commercial plumbing systems. The stainless steel screen traps debris to protect downstream valves and equipment.
Pressure Rating and Blow Off Port
Maximum pressure is 400 psi at 100 degrees F and 400 psi at 150 degrees F with a maximum temperature of 400 degrees F. A 3/8 inch blow off port allows the screen to be cleaned without removing the body from the line.
Included Stainless Steel Screen
The unit ships with a perforated stainless steel screen already installed. Mesh opening is .0331 inches to catch fine particles in fluid streams. Housing length is 3 inches and height is 2 1/2 inches for tight installation spaces.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 3/4" FNPT cast brass Y strainer and which step is often missed?
Apply thread sealant to the 3/4" NPT male connections, thread into the female ports, and tighten; the step often missed is orienting the screen downward so debris collects in the 3/8" blow-off port.
What maintenance will the stainless steel 0.0331" mesh screen need later?
Periodically open the 3/8" blow-off port to flush trapped particles; if flow drops, remove the screen, clean with a soft brush, and reinstall — no replacement interval is fixed.
What limit appears first during sustained use at 400 psi and 400 °F?
The 400 psi / 400 °F rating is the design ceiling; exceeding either pressure or temperature first risks permanent deformation of the cast brass housing and seal failure.
