Equipment / Wet processing / Dewatering screens

High-frequency dewatering screens

Dewatering screens take washed sand off the washer or classifier and drain it before stockpiling or transfer.

PT-DS High-frequency dewatering screen

Dewatering, desliming and medium removal

Vibration moves the bed along the deck and promotes drainage through the media. The bed helps retain fines, although some particles can still leave with the underflow.

Focused dutyWashed sand, mineral sand and suitably sized tailings.
System integrationCoordinate with cyclones, recovery or filtration where required.
Selection basisSize distribution, loading, apertures and target discharge moisture.
SpecificationsOn request, after your feed data or sample are reviewed. Price on request.

Vibration frequency, feed size range and dewatering performance depend on the model and material tests.

Three drive arrangements, selected around the installation

Match the drive layout to the installation: (1) exciter arrangement — screen box, exciters, supports and a drive system; confirm the drive and synchronization scheme by drawing. (2) Top-mounted vibration motors — twin vibration motors generate directional motion; consider screen loading and overhead maintenance access. (3) Side-mounted vibration motors — mounted at the screen sides; consider lateral clearance, connections and access.
