Two stage separator boosts capacity 60-80% at low cost

A new VIBROSCREEN® "Two-Stage RC" circular vibratory screener offers 60 to 80 percent higher capacities than conventional screeners of equal diameter.

The two-stage design features an upper screen deck having a 360° annular gap at the screen's periphery. This deck is fed with more material than it can efficiently screen, with two results:

1) On-size material falling through the upper screen is funneled through a hole in the center of the lower screen to the machine's discharge outlet and

2) The overflow of on-size material plus all oversize material cascade over the screen's periphery onto a second screen of equal mesh that scalps the balance of material in normal fashion.

The machine boosts capacity without increasing floor space, and costs 20 to 30 percent less than conventional screeners having larger diameters and equivalent capacities.

The two-stage screening hardware can be installed new or retrofit in diameters from 40 to 100" (1015 to 2540mm) to scalp up to 70 tons per hour. Available to 3-A, USDA, FDA, BISSC and other sanitary standards, the units can be disassembled rapidly for thorough wash down.
