Dependable, Low Maintenance Filtration
The Thompson Filter is a patented stainless steel screen filter that is designed for the removal of sand and sediment from well water for the irrigation and liquid fertilizer industry. Our unique filter has grown popular due to its low maintenance design, stainless steel construction, space saving profile, and exceptionally low pressure loss.
All models of the Thompson Filter operate with less than a 1-PSI pressure loss at maximum flow when clean. This efficiency provides real energy savings when compared to filter products that rely on energy consuming devices like spinners and torpedoes to give a comparable cleaning action. Call us today for a free energy savings estimation.
Choosing a filter with sufficient surface area is critical in any application. The Thompson Filter has significantly more surface area than most traditional basket and y-strainers. Miller-Leaman has a filter that will fit your specific needs with units available from 2' to 10' and flow rates up to 2,000 GPM (higher flow rates are achieved by manifolding multiple filters). Our screen mesh options are available from 16 to 250 mesh.
The Thompson Filter, made in the USA and backed by Miller-Leaman's dedication to customer service, is a simple cost-saving quality product that you can depend on.

- Space Saving Profile
- Reduces Capital Costs
The Thompson Filter's internal flow patterns are responsible for making our unique product so effective. As water flows up through the filter housing and deflects off the surface of the conical shaped filter screen, sediment is effectively forced back down, away from the screen, into the large debris reservoir. The sediment is then easily removed through the flush port. Effective separation of the water and the sediment is achieved while minimizing debris contact with the screen.
The Filter/Strainer vessel is purged while online and in operation. By opening a valve on the flush port, all debris in the lower reservoir is purged from the vessel, as shown. Backflushing or taking the unit off-line is not required to perform this flushing procedure.
