Description

PERKO Figure 0493 1-1/4 in. Bronze Intake Water Strainer – 493-007-PLB

The PERKO Figure 0493 intake strainer protects engine-cooling, generator, air-conditioning and other raw-water systems by trapping debris before it reaches pumps and heat exchangers. A clear cylinder makes basket condition and water flow easy to inspect.

Product Details

• Female 1-1/4 in. NPT inlet and outlet connections for raw-water plumbing.
• Cast-bronze top and bottom castings with mounting lugs on both sides for flexible installation orientation.

• Four external tie rods keep metal hardware outside the water path and retain the cylinder assembly.
• Hinged cover lugs allow the cover and basket to be removed for cleaning without fully disassembling the body.

• Compatible mounting bracket: 0493067BKT.
