Parker 937484 Suction Strainer 10 Gpm 1 Inch Npt

Product Description

The PARKER 937484 is a threaded suction strainer designed for hydraulic and fluid system applications where inlet filtration is required without a bypass valve. Rated for a maximum flow rate of 10 GPM (38 liters per minute), it features a stainless steel screen element that traps particulate before it reaches pumps and valves. The 1-inch NPT threaded connection makes it compatible with standard pipe configurations. With a maximum working temperature of 195 degrees F (90 degrees C), this strainer is suited for demanding system conditions. It weighs 0.37 pounds and measures approximately 2.52 inches in diameter and 5.5 inches in length. HVAC, industrial, and fluid power technicians install this part during system assembly or maintenance service.

This suction strainer is used in hydraulic fluid systems, lubrication circuits, and similar fluid power applications where protecting pump inlets from contamination is a priority. The no-bypass design ensures all fluid passes through the screen, making it appropriate for systems where unfiltered flow bypassing the element is not acceptable. It is suited for both residential and light commercial system builds where a 1-inch NPT threaded suction line is present. The compact form factor and single-port configuration simplify inline installation.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation suction strainer for fluid power and hydraulic systems using 1-inch NPT threaded suction line connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified fluid power or mechanical technician. Depressurize and drain the system fully before removing or installing any suction-side components. Use thread sealant appropriate for the system fluid type when making NPT connections, and do not overtighten threaded fittings. Verify that flow direction and screen orientation match system requirements before returning the system to service.
