Hayward YSH Series Y-Strainer

(0 products)

The YSH Series represents a significant step forward in thermoplastic Y-Strainer technology. Built with an enlarged barrel and an optimized barrel angle, this strainer delivers superior flow performance and greater straining capacity than conventional designs. A one-piece PVC or CPVC screen element — with no welds and no weak points — sets a new standard for reliability in industrial fluid handling.


Key Performance Advantages

40%+ Flow Capacity (Cv) Improvement

The patent-pending streamlined body and optimized barrel geometry dramatically reduce pressure drop. The result is more than 40% greater flow capacity (Cv) compared to standard thermoplastic Y-Strainers — a measurable upgrade for high-demand systems.

One-Piece Injection Molded Body

No fabrication, no welds, no weak points. The YSH body is injection molded as a single unit for maximum structural integrity. Available in PVC, Clear PVC, and CPVC with your choice of EPDM or FPM seals. Pressure rated to 150 PSI / 10 bar (non-shock) at 70°F (21°C).

Easy Cleanout and Maintenance

Color-coded external buttress thread barrel nuts make material identification simple at a glance — Orange for PVC, Black for CPVC. The one-piece thermoplastic screen snaps directly into the retainer for fast, tool-friendly cleanout in the field.

Installation-Ready Design

Permanent body markings and flow direction arrows eliminate guesswork during installation. Backed by Hayward's Global 3-Year Warranty, the YSH Series is available in two end connection configurations:

  • True Union Ends: Sizes ½" – 2" / DN15 – DN50 with IPS, DIN/EN, or JIS Socket; Threaded or Flanged End connections
  • Integral Ends: Sizes ½" – 2" with IPS Socket or Threaded End connections
