Parker 936551 Magnetic Suction Strainer 100 Gpm 30 Mesh

Product Description

The PARKER 936551 is a magnetic suction strainer designed to protect hydraulic and fluid system components from ferrous debris and particulate contamination at the suction inlet. Rated for a maximum flow rate of 100 GPM (380 liters per minute), it features a 30-mesh stainless steel screen and an integrated magnetic element that captures metallic particles conventional screening cannot trap. The strainer measures 4.47 inches in diameter and 9.35 inches in length, with 3-inch NPT threaded connections available in both male and female configurations across its three ports. Licensed plumbers, hydraulic system technicians, and industrial fluid system specialists are the typical installers for this component.

This strainer is suited for use in hydraulic reservoirs, industrial fluid circuits, and heavy-duty fluid handling systems where suction-side protection is required before fluid reaches pumps or control valves. Its three-port NPT configuration supports flexible plumbing arrangements in both inline and reservoir-mounted installations. The 195 degrees F maximum working temperature rating makes it appropriate for a range of industrial fluid and hydraulic applications. It ships as a single unit with a minimum order quantity of one.

Key Features

• Integrated magnetic element captures ferrous metallic particles not caught by mesh screening alone
• 30-mesh stainless steel screen provides durable, corrosion-resistant filtration
• Maximum flow rate of 100 GPM (380 LPM) supports high-demand suction-side applications
• Three-port design with 3-inch NPT male and female threaded connections for flexible plumbing
• Rated to 195 degrees F maximum working temperature
• Compact profile at 4.47 inches diameter and 9.35 inches length for space-constrained installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style suction strainer for hydraulic reservoirs and industrial fluid systems requiring 3-inch NPT threaded connections with magnetic filtration capability.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or licensed plumber. De-energize and fully depressurize the fluid system and allow it to cool before removing or installing any suction strainer. Ensure all NPT threads are properly sealed with thread sealant rated for the working fluid and temperature before tightening. Verify flow direction and port orientation against the system schematic before completing the installation.
