Parker 936548 Magnetic Suction Strainer 25 Gpm 1-1/4 Npt

Product Description

The PARKER 936548 is a magnetic suction strainer designed to protect hydraulic and fluid system components from ferrous and particulate contamination at the inlet side of pumps and fluid circuits. Built with a 30-mesh stainless steel screen, it filters debris while the integrated magnet captures fine ferrous particles that pass through the screen media. The strainer handles a maximum flow rate of 25 GPM (95 LPM) and measures 3.53 inches in diameter and 7.39 inches in length. It connects via 1-1/4 inch NPT threads in a male/female configuration. Licensed fluid power mechanics and industrial maintenance technicians are the primary installers of this component.

This strainer is suited for use on hydraulic power units, lubrication systems, and fluid transfer applications where suction-side filtration is required. Its threaded NPT connections allow straightforward integration into steel or ductile iron piping assemblies. The 30-mesh screen is appropriate for systems requiring coarse inlet protection ahead of pump inlets where pressure drop must be minimized. The unit is rated for fluid operating temperatures up to 195 degrees F (90 degrees C), making it compatible with a range of hydraulic oils and industrial fluids encountered in both light commercial and heavy industrial environments.

Key Features

• Integrated magnet captures fine ferrous particles not caught by the mesh screen
• 30-mesh stainless steel screen provides durable, corrosion-resistant filtration media
• Maximum flow rate of 25 GPM (95 LPM) supports high-demand suction-side applications
• 1-1/4 inch NPT male/female threaded connections for standard pipe integration
• Rated for operating temperatures up to 195 degrees F (90 degrees C)
• Compact 3.53 inch diameter profile suitable for tight equipment enclosures

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation suction strainer for hydraulic and fluid systems using 1-1/4 inch NPT threaded pipe connections with a 30-mesh inlet filtration requirement.

Installation Notes

Installation and service should be performed by qualified fluid power mechanics or licensed industrial maintenance technicians familiar with hydraulic system safety procedures. Depressurize and de-energize the hydraulic system completely before removing or installing the strainer. Verify thread engagement and apply appropriate thread sealant compatible with the system fluid before tightening to avoid leaks at the NPT connection. Inspect the screen and magnet during scheduled maintenance intervals to prevent flow restriction from accumulated debris or ferrous buildup.
