Wedge Wire Tube Screens
Wedge wire tube screens are
constructed by helically winding a continuous triangular shaped wire around a
series of vertical support rods. They are welded to the support rods at
measured spacing to form an independently strong element. One of the flat
sides of the triangular wire is the circumference of the element; giving it an
overall smooth surface. This improves both manual and backwash cleaning.
This is usually the best element in terms of backwash cleaning efficiency
resulting from a Venturi effect at the screen's opening.
