High precision+ high strength+non clogging +high efficiency = cost reduction
The wedge wire screen has two bases structure, one is flat mesh shape and the other is wire wrapped screen (johnson screen) , these two type can make out almost full shape ans size wedge wire filteration parts.
In filtration, the solids are blocked and deposited on the smooth surface, forming a filter cake which can block smaller solid particles. The unblocked tiny particles will not obstruct the V-shaped slot.
The inverted water(gas) clears the filter cake and dirts from the surface of the filter element.
