Legend Valve LEGE-105-517NL Lead Free Brass Y-strainer

Product Description

The LEGEND VALVE LEGE-105-517NL is a lead-free brass Y-strainer designed for in-line filtration of water and fluid systems in residential and light commercial plumbing applications. It features C x C sweat end connections at a 1-1/2 inch pipe size, making it suitable for copper piping systems where soldered joints are standard. The body is constructed from lead-free brass, meeting modern plumbing code requirements for potable water contact. Rated at 300 psi WOG and 150 psi WSP, this strainer handles typical residential and commercial pressure ranges with confidence. The seal material is nitrillic bonded fiber, providing reliable seating against the strainer screen.

This Y-strainer is used in potable water supply lines, hydronic heating systems, and general plumbing distribution piping where debris protection of downstream equipment is required. Common installations include protecting valves, meters, pumps, and other in-line components from particulate contamination. The C x C sweat configuration integrates directly into copper pipe runs without the need for threaded adapters. It is typically installed by licensed plumbers during new construction or retrofit service work on 1-1/2 inch copper systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and the IPC. Shut off the water supply and fully depressurize and drain the line before soldering the sweat connections. The Y-strainer body and screen should be oriented so the strainer leg points downward or horizontally for proper sediment collection and cleanout access. Avoid applying excessive heat during soldering to prevent damage to the internal seal and screen components.
