SCREENING
Screens are use to:
SCREENING
The screening process is based
upon the premise that:
SCREENING
Screens consists of 2, 3, or 4 decks
(layers) of open mesh screen wire
cloth
mounted
one above
the other
in a
rectangular
box.
MESH
The term mesh
refers to the number
of openings per lineal
inch. To count the
number of openings
to an inch, measure
from the center of a
wire to a point one
inch distance.
MESH
CLEAR OPENING
Clear opening
or space is the
distance
between the
inside edges of
two parallel
wires.
SCREEN CAPACITY
Capacity is the rate in tons per hr
that 1 sf of screen produces
(passes) of the desired size.
Capacity varies with many factors.

The permissible screen
efficiency is 85%. Determine
the minimum-size screen, in
sq ft, required to handle the
crusher output. The screening
unit is 4 ft wide.
