GROCO BS-23 Stainless Steel Basket SS-1000 & BVS-100, Black 10x3x3

Description

Product Overview

The GROCO BS-23 steel basket strainer is a purpose‑built component designed to integrate seamlessly with the SS‑1000 and BVS‑100 filtration series. Constructed from high‑grade stainless steel, the basket offers exceptional resistance to corrosion, chemical exposure, and mechanical wear, ensuring a long service life even in harsh industrial environments. Its compact dimensions—10 inches long, 3 inches wide, and 3 inches high—allow it to fit into tight spaces without sacrificing flow capacity. The black finish not only provides a professional appearance but also helps conceal surface stains and minor scratches that can occur during routine handling.

Usage

This basket strainer excels in a variety of applications where reliable solid‑particle removal is critical. It is commonly installed in manufacturing plants, water‑treatment facilities, and large‑scale HVAC systems where particulate contamination can impair equipment performance. The design supports easy retrofitting into existing pipelines, and the standard 1‑inch NPT connections match the majority of industrial plumbing standards. Whether you are filtering cooling water, process fluids, or reclaimed water, the BS‑23 provides consistent filtration while maintaining low pressure drop, which helps preserve pump efficiency and reduce energy costs.
