McLANAHAN - Agg - Dewatering Screen

The document discusses dewatering screens, which are used to remove water from slurries in aggregate processing. Dewatering screens work by having slurry feed onto an inclined screen surface where solids build up and water drains through. They offer advantages like producing a dry product and can process up to 400 tons per hour. The document provides details on applications, benefits, and features of dewatering screens.

Dewatering

Screens

AGGREGATE PROCESSING

Over 30 years ago, McLanahan Corporation was the first


to introduce Dewatering Screens to the mining industry,
where the screens quickly became the standard.
Dewatering screens offer multiple advantages for
construction

and

specialty

aggregate

producers,

including a dry drip-free product that other types of


equipment cannot provide. With hundreds of units in
service,

the

Dewatering

Screen

exemplifies

the

unbeatable toughness you expect from McLanahan


Corporation.
Dewatering Screens have several functions:

Dewatering
Desliming
Degritting
Rinsing
Scrubbing
Washing

HOW DEWATERING SCREENS WORK


1. Slurry feeds onto a steeply inclined screen surface
to achieve rapid drainage
2. A pool of water forms in the valley as sand builds
up on the inclined surface
3. Counter rotating motors create a linear motion that
forces solids uphill while water drains through the
screen media
4. The uphill slope of the screen along with a discharge
weir creates a deep bed that acts as a filter medium,
allowing retention of material much finer than the
screen openings

Dewatering Screens feature custom engineered, heavy

duty screen media for the high capacity applications

SLURRY
FEED

encountered in todays production conscious market.


Side frames and beams are Huck bolted together, not

welded, so individual components can be replaced. They

also have a combination of standard, high quality wear


resistant side wear linings, optional deck dividers, and
dams. Performance flexibility is enhanced by variations
in screen media and the use of deck dividers.
McLanahan Dewatering Screens have the highest
capacities available in the industry and can process up
to 400 tph of coarse sand on a single machine. Available
sizes are 3' x 8', 4' x 10', 5' x 12', 6' x 12', 7' x 12', and
7' x 16'.
