Stainless Steel Resin Trap Strainer for Sand and Carbon Filter

A resin trap filter is a safety device installed in water filtration systems to prevent the loss of ion exchange resin, activated carbon, or sand media. Typically made from stainless steel wedge wire, these strainers provide durability and high filtration precision, making them ideal for industrial water treatment applications.

✔ Material: Stainless Steel 304, 316, 316L, 904L

✔ Structure: Wedge Wire Vee Slot Design

✔ Role: Protect downstream equipment by capturing resin, sand, and carbon particles before they enter the main water flow

How Resin Trap Strainer Works in Sand and Carbon Filters

The wedge wire resin trap is strategically placed on the outlet of a sand filter or carbon filter. When resin or media escapes from the primary filter, the resin trap captures the particles before they reach pumps, valves, or other sensitive components. The trapped particles are flushed out through a backwash system, maintaining high-flow filtration efficiency.

Features of Stainless Steel Resin Trap Strainers

▪ High Durability

Made from stainless steel, these resin traps offer excellent corrosion resistance, making them ideal for long-term use in harsh environments.

▪ High-Flow Design

The industrial resin trap screen allows efficient water flow and prevents clogging and pressure drops.

▪ Wedge Wire Structure

The vee wire resin trap provides high-precision filtering, ensuring minimal media loss from sand and carbon filters.

▪ Customizable Slot Sizes

Available in different slot openings to suit various water filtration systems.

▪ Easy Maintenance

Many models feature automatic backwash capabilities, reducing manual cleaning and improving efficiency.

Versatile Applications of Stainless Steel Resin Trap Strainers

▪ Water Treatment Systems: Used in ion exchange systems, carbon filtration, and sand filters.

▪ Industrial Filtration: Used in power plants, chemical processing, petroleum, pharmaceutical, and food & beverage production for water treatment.

▪ Reverse Osmosis (RO) Systems

▪ Municipal Wastewater Treatment

A stainless steel resin trap strainer is critical in sand and carbon filter systems, ensuring optimal performance and preventing media loss. Whether industrial water treatment, municipal wastewater systems, or reverse osmosis applications, investing in a high-quality stainless steel wedge wire resin trap enhances filtration efficiency and protects downstream equipment.
