Run Down Screens Designs
Each unit is designed to suit the specific requirements of the customer. Consisting of a basic outer casing, which can be manufactured in mild steel or stainless steel, each unit incorporates a distribution chamber and feed weir; over which the effluent passes onto the wedge wire panel which is set at right angles to the flow to enable the separating process to commence.
The separated solids collect on the lower half of the screen to drain and compact, they then slide by gravity onto a solids discharge chute.
The extracted liquid passes through the wedge wire into an underflow collecting tank, with a disposal outlet for either re-circulation or discharge.
