High capacity screener features 360-degree overs discharge
Ideal for recycling applications in which the screened material contains a large percentage of oversized particles, this new model X-0834 high capacity vibratory screener is designed to discharge oversize particles 360-degrees around the periphery of a circular screening deck. This increases capacity, improves efficiency, minimizes screen blinding and prolongs screen life, according to Henry Alamzad, president of Kason Corporation, the manufacturer of the technology.
The screener unit, a 60-inch (1,524 mm) diameter Vibroscreen model with “External Kascade” deck, is specifically intended for screening of wet or dry bulk materials containing a large percentage of oversize fractions, at higher rates than attainable with conventional screeners.
As material is fed onto the centre of the screening deck, on-size particles pass through the screen and funnel through a lower discharge chute. Oversize particles flow outward in a spiral pattern, and cascade at any point over the periphery of the circular screen onto a spiral vibratory trough that directs the material into a high capacity discharge spout.
“Allowing oversize particles to cascade 360-degree around the screen’s periphery, instead of through a 15-degree to 25-degree opening created by a conventional discharge spout, eliminates a discharge capacity restriction associated with overs building up around the screen circumference,” explains Alamzad.
The special screening deck is offered on any of the Kason’s Vibroscreen separators ranging from 40 to 72 inches (1,016 to 1,829 mm) in diameter, and is available as a retrofit kit for any make of circular vibratory screener. A range of accessories is also available including clean-in-place spray heads, anti-blinding devices, articulated lids for rapid screen changes, and an automatic long-term lubrication system for gyratory motor bearings.
Kason manufactures numerous types and sizes of circular vibratory screeners and centrifugal screeners for separating virtually any solid from any solid or slurry, as well as static sieves and circular fluid bed dryers, coolers and moisturizers.
