Miller-Leaman Offers

Thompson Seastrainers 56

Miller-Leaman Inc. has introduced stainless steel Thompson Seastrainers to the marine industry. Available in type 304 and type 316L stainless steel, the strainers feature a large, conical screen element. The standard screen material is a 5/64 in. perforated material. As water enters the bottom of the strainer housing and flows upward, heavier debris and particulate is accelerated downward into the debris reservoir at the base of the strainer. The particulate is then flushed from the reservoir via the flush port.

Due to the large screen surface area, all models operate with a minimal pressure drop. The strainers can be modified to fit the specific requirements of the ves- sel.
