Select Right Surface & Support Profiles

Selecting appropriate profile wire and support rods for wedge wire screens involves careful consideration of several factors, including the specific application, the materials being processed, desired filtration performance, and structural requirements. Here are the steps to help you select the right profiles:

Understand your application
Define filtration requirements
Select surface profile
Choose support profile
Consult with our specialists

Understand Your Application

Clearly define the purpose of the wedge wire screen. Determine whether it's for filtration, separation, sizing, dewatering, or another application.
Identify the characteristics of the fluid or material you're dealing with, including particle size distribution, flow rate, temperature, and chemical compatibility.

Define Filtration Requirements

Determine the desired filtration or separation efficiency. What size particles or solids do you need to retain, and what size must pass through?
Consider any special requirements, such as high flow rates, high temperatures, or aggressive chemicals

Select Surface Profile

Function: Surface wires are the main filtering elements of wedge wire screens. They are V-shaped wires that run parallel to each other and are welded to the support rods.
Design: The V-shaped profile of the wires creates slots between them, allowing liquids to pass through while retaining solids above a certain size. The size of these slots can be customized based on the specific application requirements.
Materials: Surface wires are typically made of stainless steel or other corrosion-resistant alloys, ensuring durability and resistance to harsh environments.

V-3×4.25	3	4.25
V-3×5	3	5
V-3×6	3	6

Choose Support Profile

Function: Support rods provide structural support to the wedge wire screen, holding the surface wires in place and maintaining the screen's integrity under pressure.
Design: Support rods are usually positioned perpendicular to the surface wires, forming a grid-like pattern. They are attached to the surface wires through welding or other secure methods.
Materials: Similar to surface wires, support rods are commonly made of stainless steel or other materials with high strength and corrosion resistance.
