Last week, we wrapped up the completion of three fabricated basket strainers.  The images you see here show our team performing the hydrotesting phase, which was done on Monday and Tuesday.

Following the completion of this test, the units were painted and prepared for shipment. The third image is of the final product en route to the client. Below is a timeline from start to finish of the progress of this project:
