Wye Type Vic-Strainer®
SERIES 732

Series 732 Vic-Strainer provides straight through flow for lower pressure drop. Installs with
two Victaulic couplings. Series 732 strainers range in size from 2 – 12"/50 – 300 mm. All
sizes are rated to 300 psi/2065 kPa maximum working pressure.
A factory installed Blow Down Drain Valve is available upon request, however this option is
only offered for limited sizes of the Series 732*. The blow-down valve has a hose
connection capable of piping system water to a drain when servicing Air Handling Units.
Durable 304 stainless perforated metal basket, 0.062" diameter holes for 2 – 3"/50 –
80 mm sizes; 0.125" diameter holes for 4 – 12"/100 – 300 mm sizes standard.
For information on the AGS Series W732 Wye Type Vic-Strainer in 14-18"/300-400mm
sizes, request publication 20.19.
*Available in sizes 2 ½"/65 mm, 3"/80mm, 4"/100 mm and 6"/150 mm. *Available in limited sizes for

1
Working pressure is maximum and will be governed by couplings used for installation and related system
components. Maximum differential pressure from inlet to outlet must not exceed 10 psi/69 kPa.
2
Dimensions will vary depending upon coupling orientation.
3
Dimension M represents the minimum clearance required to remove the basket from the strainer.
