stainless steel continuous slot screen

The Continuous slot screen is manufactured by wrapping a profile wire cylindrical around longitudinal placed support rods creating a V shaped non clogging slot opening.
Depending on the type of wire used and the slot opening, the open area of a wedge wire screen can vary between 10% and 70% of the total area.

The average opening area of a water well screen varies from 35% to 45% compared with 5% to 15% on average of a other screens (e.g. perforated or bridge screen).
In the case of support grids, the filtering area can be up to a 70% of total area, depending on the material used and the slot.

The continuos slot water screen has several advantages compared to other screens such as bridge slot screen or perforated screen.
A larger opening (filtering) area of a wedge wire screen leads to superior performance of a water well compared against the installation of other types of screens.
Moreover a wedgewire filter for water well are self-cleaning (go no go), thus, prevents losses due to friction as well as losses associated with pumping sand.
Also, a continuous slot wedgewire water well screen eliminate the problems associated with fine sands, thus, increasing the life of the pumping equipment.
