The purpose of the mud system is to separate the solids from the drilling fluids, although it is true that the Shale Shakers make the equipment vibrate with their motors, the Screen Shakers play an extremely important role when screening the drilling fluids; GN Solids control has managed to develop with high-quality standards with an International format following the norms imposed by the US market, API RP13C or ISO 13501, allowing the manufacture and massive sale of our meshes to the world market, little by little it has been consolidating as a successful option and benefited by the technology offered in its final product.
The GN Shaker Screen was tested by an independent third-party USA company according to API RP 13C(I-SO13501).
(Please contact GN for a detailed API RP13C testing report.)
Features of GN Shaker Screens:
- Automatic Robot Welding of the steel frame to have better quality and consistency.
- High-quality pretension screen for long operation life.
- Four side tension of mesh during the heat press to minimize the gap between the top screen and support screens, in a result extending the screen life. Our competitors normally do not use any tension for heat press.
- GN 3-layer wire meshes for API 60 and above for longer screen life, our competitors normally use 3 layers only for API 120 and above.
- GN wire mesh supplier is an internationally famous brand.
- The steel frame screen is repairable to save cost.
- GN comprehensive line steel frame screen for GN shakers, MI-Swaco Mongoose, Nov Brandt Cobra, Venom,
- VSM-300, FSI screen, Derrick 2000, 500. And we can customize any screen dimension.
ASTM Mesh and API Cut Point:
- ASTM is short for The American Society for Testing and Materials, ASTM E11:01 mesh equals to ISO 3310- 1:2000 mesh. This method determines the cut point of single-layer ASTM screen mesh size. For shaker screen mesh, normally means the surface screen mesh size. Whilst the shaker screen is usually a composition of 2 or 3 layers, the cut point of the first layer’s mesh is not equal to the final shaker screen cut point.
- API is short for American Petroleum Institute, “API Number” is determined by API RP13C or ISO13501, the cut point is related to the combined 3-layer wire mesh test result. So before ordering, GN will need an API number, or the cut point, to define a more proper shaker screen configuration.
GN can produce all kinds of shaker screens:
- GN Solids Control sells around many shale shakers a year, we have shale shakers operating around the world.
