The Mueller Steam Specialty perforated strainer screen is a direct replacement for 3/4 581 CS screwed-end and 3/4 582 CS socket-weld strainers. It is built from 304 stainless steel with a .062 in perforated opening and a .0625 in micron rating. The screen handles a Cv flow factor of 12 gpm. It meets ASSE, CSA, FM, NSF, UL, ULC, USC and WQA standards.

Fit and use

This screen suits maintenance teams and installers who need a factory-matched replacement for the listed Mueller strainer models. It is not intended for strainers with different end connections, different screen perforation sizes or mesh-type screens. Buyers who need a complete strainer body or a different material should look at other parts.

Deciding spec

The .062 in perforated opening in 304 stainless steel is the single specification that determines whether this screen matches the original equipment. Verify the perforation size and material against the strainer nameplate before ordering.

Questions about this item

How does the 12 gpm flow factor affect performance once the screen is installed?

The Cv flow factor of 12 gpm indicates the screen allows that volume of water through with a 1 psi pressure drop, so it will not restrict typical residential or light-commercial supply lines.

What standard governs the perforated screen opening of .062 in and .0625 in micron rating?

The screen meets ASSE, CSA, FM, NSF, UL, ULC, USC and WQA standards, which cover material safety and perforation sizing for potable-water and steam applications.

What length and material should I check to ensure the screen fits my 3/4 581 CS or 582 CS strainer body?

The replacement screen is 1 5/8 in long and made of 304 stainless steel, matching the original equipment for the 3/4 581 CS screwed-end and 3/4 582 CS socket-weld strainer bodies.
