Abstract
An apparatus including centrifugal, magnetic and screening components for separating contaminating solid magnetic and/or non-magnetic particles from a fluid. The centrifugal, magnetic and screening components, during the operation of the apparatus, are supported by and enclosed within a housing. The housing is readily openable to provide access to all of the components for cleaning and/or repair and/or replacement, and the components are so related that fluid 'starving' of a system in which the apparatus is in series with other components is substantially prevented.
