where to place "Y" strainers in piping system?

Ok I need to know what is the proper place to instal the y strainer in my sytem.My system is real simple. I will lay it out for you ,and then if you guys would give me a few pointers in where I should best locate them.
1 water out of boiler to pump.
2 then feed line goes all the way to plate exchanger.
3 leave plate exchanger then head to furnace.
4 go through water to air exchanger.
5 leave exchanger and then return back to furnace.

Does the orientation of the y strainer matter?or does it need to be in the vertical position?
I had originaly though of placing it before the pump right at the furnce.I then wondered if I could have an issue with it plugging ,and then causing the pump to burn up.So I was think placing it right after the pump.
Or Do I just wait and instal it right before the plate exchanger(DHW) in the house ?
What is your opinions ,and what seems to be normal practice for installing them?

Y Type Strainer Installation Guide and Tips

Y strainers use a perforated or welded wire strainer to filter out particles. They are most commonly seen in pressured lines carrying steam, gas, or liquid. While Y strainers are most commonly put horizontally, they can also be positioned vertically. Knowing wherein the conduit the strainer should be positioned, trying to ensure there&#;s room for screen extraction during cleanouts, and, most essential, aligning the direction on the strainer with the piping flow are all part of ensuring appropriate vertical assembly of Y strainers.

Contact us to discuss your requirements of y-strainer installation direction. Our experienced sales team can help you identify the options that best suit your needs.

If you want to place your Y-strainer vertically, keep in mind that vertical Y filters should be used with pipelines that flow downward, enabling debris to flow smoothly into the pocket. There is a good likelihood that debris will flow back into the pipe if they are positioned in an upwards flow.

Correctly handling strainer operation, installation, and maintenance helps guarantee that your equipment continues to function well for many years. Installation, operation, and repair of y strainers are covered in the sections beneath.
