The Hydro Sieve Static Screen is a gravity-driven solid-liquid separator designed for efficient wastewater screening. Constructed from stainless steel wedge wire , this static screen operates without electricity or moving parts, reducing maintenance and operating costs. Advantages include: • High separation efficiency • Self-cleaning design • Corrosion resistance • Long service life It is widely used in industrial wastewater systems, municipal treatment plants, and food processing applications.

Wedge wire screens are precision stainless steel filtration components used in water treatment, mining, chemical processing, and industrial separation systems. This guide explains how wedge wire screens are constructed, how they function, and how to select the correct configuration for industrial applications. What Is a Wedge Wire Screen? A wedge wire screen consists of V-shaped profile wires welded to support rods. The gaps between the wires form slot openings that allow fluids to pass while retaining solids. The inward-widening slot geometry improves flow efficiency and reduces clogging compared to straight-slot alternatives. Main Design Elements Profile Wire Determines slot precision and open area. Support Rods Provide structural integrity under pressure. Slot Opening Ranges from fine filtration (0.05 mm) to coarse screening (2 mm+). Types of Wedge Wire Screens Flat wedge wire panels Cylindrical screens Rotary drum screens Conical or basket screens Each type...

In industrial filtration systems, especially in pump suction lines, I often see cone-shaped elements referred to as “ witches hat strainers .” For anyone unfamiliar, a witches hat strainer (also called a cone strainer ) is a conical stainless steel filter installed directly inside a pipeline. It’s typically used as a temporary or compact solution to protect downstream equipment from debris during startup or maintenance operations. Why engineers choose them: Lower pressure drop compared to flat screens Compact installation inside flanges Good debris distribution due to angled geometry Available in mesh, perforated plate, or wedge wire They're commonly used in : • Water treatment systems • Chemical processing lines • Pump protection • Resin retention setups Curious how others approach pre-filtration in tight pipeline layouts — do you prefer cone strainers, basket strainers, or temporary spool strainers?
