Concord Screen Concord Wedge-Wire Screens The continuous wedge-shaped slots in the element effectively separates the solids from the fluid passing through the unit. The unique Concord Screen wedge design of the element offers high strength, high open area and less clogging than other types of elements. These 316 stainless steel screen are available in slot sizes from 0.001" to 0.187". Fabric Concord Screen fabric media are woven from synthetic fibers and are chemically compatible with most liquids. Fabric media offers an excellent means of filtering liquids with retention levels down to nominal 5 microns. These synthetic fibers also have excellent solids release characteristics for easy cleaning. Wire Mesh Woven wire mesh screens provide good solids release characteristic. The wire mesh screens are made of Type 316 stainless steel and wedge-wire inner backing is used in order to give it support. Wire mesh sizes are available from 1 micron to 150 mesh. Specifications HOUSING MATERIAL: Carbon steel or 316 stainless steel GASKETS: Buna N, Ethylene Propylene, (EPR), Viton, Silicone or Teflon FILTER MEDIA: Stainless steel, polyester or polypropylene DESIGN PRESSURE: 150 psi and 300 psi standard construction TEMPERATURE LIMITS: Temperature limits will vary depending on the gasket and screen material FLOW RATE: Maximum flow rate per element is 150 GPM Example: Determine filter size for 500 gpm using wedge-wire element with 0.006" slot. From Table 1 determine the sizing factor (which is 2.1). Multiply the flow by the sizing factor to give us the factored flow (ie. 500 x 2.1 = 1,050 factored flow). From Chart 1 determine the number of elements needed. In our example for factored flow of 1,050, the number of elements needed is 5. Table 2 gives the Model No. needed for either internal or external backwashing units. Make sure that maximum flow rate per element is not exceeded. Divide the flow rate by the number of elements. The result should not exceed 100 gpm (500 / 5 = 100 gpm). * Above sizing factor is based on filtering water Units placed back-to-back are half the length "L"
