Welded Wedge Wire (profile wire) Screens provide a unique combination of the most important features required for maximum screening efficiency. Wedge Wire screen is in flat, curved panels or cylinder offering continuous slot openings that widen inwardly so that particles tend to pass through the screen. The high open area provides excellent capacity.
Structures: Wedge wire panels and cylinders are made of looped, round and/or wedge shaped wires for precise openings, then framed with stainless steel or coated carbon steel plates.
It is supplied in stainless steel and other special steel metals and alloy metal screens, mainly used on dewatering equipment.
Screen Types:
Panel shape;
Cylinder shape;
Wedge wire grids;
Sieves.
Wedge wire screen is used in four categories:
Liquid/Solid Separation:
Solids removal from process wastewater;
Lake and river water intake screens;
Fiber removal;
Screen cylinders for rotary screens;
Recovering solids;
Pulp thickening;
Heavy media recovery;
Product dewatering;
Sieve Bend Screen surfaces.
For Sizing, Straining and Filtering:
In-line strainers to minimize the lose of media;
Resin Traps used as an effluent strainer;
Sizing of solids;
Pressure screens;
Filtering particles from treated fluid;
Strainers for pump or compressor protection.
For Collection:
Support grids for uniform fluid collection in media filter;
Hub lateral screen systems;
Header lateral screen systems;
Collection of treated liquid in treatment vessels;
Filter nozzles for tube sheets;
Upflow Clarifiers;
Gravity filter underdrain systems.
For Retention:
Retaining media and collecting the treated liquid;
Carbon retention screens in carbon-in-pulp tanks;
Flooring for germination, malt kiln, grain drying rooms;
Catalyst retention in catalytic reactors;
Fish protection / diversion screens. |
