Johnson screens also known as wedge wire screens play an important role in industrial filtration and separation. These screens serve the function of filtering and retaining solid particles while allowing liquids to pass through.
Johnson screen structure and design principles
a. Jonson Screens are composed of V-shaped wires or rods, welded at precise intervals to form continuous slots.
b. Unique design achieves solid particle interception and liquid passage.
The function of the Johnson screen
1. Filtration Efficiency: The precise slot openings on the surface of Johnson screens ensure high filtration efficiency by effectively capturing solid particles above a certain size threshold. These screens can be customized to achieve specific filtration requirements based on particle size distribution and desired retention capacity.
2. Structural Strength: Unlike traditional mesh filters, which may deform or collapse under high pressures or heavy loads, Johnson screens offer excellent structural strength due to their robust construction using sturdy materials like stainless steel. They can withstand extreme conditions without compromising performance, making them ideal for demanding industrial applications.
3. Self-Cleaning Capability: One notable advantage of Johnson screens is their self-cleaning feature facilitated by their unique wedge wire design. The V-shaped wires prevent clogging by promoting continuous fluid flow and reducing the accumulation of debris on the surface, thereby minimizing maintenance requirements and ensuring uninterrupted operation.
4. Versatility: Johnson screens can be tailored to suit various application needs by adjusting parameters such as slot size, open area percentage, material selection (including corrosion-resistant options), length/diameter ratio, etc., ensuring compatibility with different types of fluids and operating conditions across industries like water treatment plants,
5. Optimal Flow Characteristics: The design geometry of the slots plays a crucial role in maintaining consistent flow rates across the entire filter surface. This results in an even distribution of flow, reduced pressure drops, and enhanced overall system efficiency.
6. Customizability: Johnson screens can be customized to meet specific requirements such as different slot sizes, lengths, diameters, and configurations based on the intended application. This flexibility allows for a precise fit within existing filtration systems or the design of new systems tailored to specific process needs.
