Screen 30' is, secured to arms '36 1nd to 3 band 38 and isconicel in form. The lower ends-= of both screens are above the open space 28 between the deflecting bowl and cylinder ll'so that all matter caught by the screens. as the liquid passes upwardly through them toward discharge opening 13, drops through said space into settling chamber 21, where it is collected and is readily drained out through opening 25.

It is to be noted that the liquid flowing through the filter cannot come into contact with the settlings which have been collected in the settling chamber, and that where the filter is connected to a pump it is unnecessary to operate the pump to withdraw the settlings from the chamber since they readily drain therefrom by gravity when permitted to do so.

I contemplate applying my invention for ing member and the discharge opening and away from the settlings chamber.
