Y type strainers are normally used in applications where you have to remove small amounts of solids and where frequent clean-out is not necessary. Y type strainers are usually installed in services that involve air, nitrogen and natural gas or other gases. With a typically compact and cylindrical shape, the Y type strainer is strong enough to withstand pressures of up to 6000 psi. Even with the complicating factor of hot steam at pressures of 1500 psi or temperatures of 1000 F, your Y type strainer can definitely survive it.
