Deep Frame Wet Wash Sieves are for wet washingelutriation applications. They have a deep frame to handle larger samples and accurate particle separation. This category has various sizes and mesh options to fit your needs. Shipping weight is included so you can plan for transportation and logistics.
One of the products in this category is the Gilson SVA-21 Elutriation Sieve. It has a replaceable stainless steel cloth and a deep brass frame for durability. The SVA-21 is for wet washing and separating particles by settling velocity. Good for grain size analysis and soil particle characterization. Each sieve has an individual etched serial number for quality control and traceability.
Another is the Gilson WTA-53, an 8-inch replacement screen for replaceable mesh wet washing sieve. This replacement screen is made of high-quality stainless steel and available in various mesh sizes (#200 and #325). Allows you to keep your wet washing sieve in working order and get consistent results.
Also in this category is the Gilson SV-217 3-inch Non-Metallic Sieve Wet Test Pan. It fits the wet washing sieves and gives you a place to collect and wash samples during the sieving process. Non-metallic construction prevents chemical reactions so your samples are safe.
All the sieves in this category have a deep frame design to hold more sample and prevent sample loss or spillage during sieving. Brass frames are durable and corrosion resistant and stainless steel cloth is precise and consistent particle separation.
Deep Frame Wet Wash Sieves are for a variety of applications including aggregate testing, construction material quality control, geotechnical testing and research laboratories. They meet industry standards and give accurate and reliable results. Whether you’re doing routine quality control or advanced research these standard sieves are a must have for any lab or testing facility.
Deep frame wet wash sieves are specialized tools used in geology, construction and agriculture to analyze materials. They are designed to handle slurry or liquid based samples where thorough washing is required to separate particles. The frame depth varies and the overall frame depth is critical for washing materials so fines are washed through the sieve without losing samples. This overview will cover the construction, function and applications of deep frame wet wash sieves.
Definition and Function:Deep frame wet wash sieves have deeper frames than standard sieves to hold more liquid and material. The extra depth allows for fines to be washed through the sieve without losing samples which is required for particle size testing standards and better particle size analysis. This is necessary when samples need to be suspended in a fluid to wash away fine particles or contaminants. The sieve has a metal frame that holds a mesh screen which separates particles by size.
Materials: The frames are often made of stainless steel or brass. Stainless steel is strong and durable while brass is non-sparking when required.
Mesh Materials: The mesh is usually made of stainless steel or woven wire mesh. These materials can withstand water and other liquids for a long time without degrading.
Proper sample preparation is key to accurate particle size testing as it ensures the materials are handled and processed with high quality standard sieves.
Deep Frame Wet Wash Sieves Design and Specifications
Sieve Design: The deep frame wet wash sieves have a deeper than usual frame to hold more slurry or liquid. This allows for more sample processing when samples need to be washed extensively to free particles from sticky or dense matrices. The sieves can have sieve covers to prevent splash back and material loss during agitation. These sieves are ideal for accurate fines content determinations where fines can be washed through the mesh without losing samples.
Mesh Sizes and Openings: Deep frame wet wash sieves are available in various mesh sizes to meet industry standards and requirements. The mesh opening size is critical as it determines the smallest particle size that can be separated from the sample. These sieves are designed for high precision particle size testing with tolerances to ensure consistency.
Applications Across Industries
Construction Materials Testing: In construction these sieves are used to wash sieves and separate sand, gravel and other aggregates. This is critical for determining the particle size distribution of materials used in concrete and asphalt which can affect the strength and durability of the final product. These sieves can also be used for wet testing of materials such as concrete, asphalt, soil and aggregates.
Geological and Environmental Testing: Geologists use deep frame wet wash sieves for sediment and soil testing, often for environmental impact studies. These sieves allow for thorough washing of samples to remove fine silt and clay particles to get a clearer picture of the soil’s grain size distribution and mineral composition.
Agriculture: In agriculture these sieves help in soil testing and determining the suitability of land for different crops. By knowing soil texture and component sizes farmers and agronomists can make informed decisions on irrigation, fertilization and crop selection.
Technical Features and Benefits
Efficiency and Precision: Deep frame wet wash sieves are designed for efficiency and precision in sieving. The deep frame can handle larger sample sizes and reduces batch processing time. The precision of the mesh ensures accurate particle size analysis for quality control and research applications. Wet sieving accessories are necessary to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the sieving process.
Traceability and Standards Compliance: These sieves are manufactured to meet various standards such as ASTM or ISO to meet global testing and quality assurance requirements. Traceability in manufacturing and particle size testing is maintained through documentation and adherence to these standards. These sieves are designed to prepare specimens for accurate test results.
Drawbacks
Despite their benefits deep frame wet wash sieves have challenges such as handling very fine particles which may require longer washing time or more gentle handling to prevent mesh blockage or damage. Maintenance of these sieves is critical; regular cleaning and inspection is necessary to ensure the mesh is intact and the frame doesn’t corrode.
Wet wash sieves also has challenges, maintenance is necessary for accurate results.
Care
Maintenance involves regular cleaning using a wash sieve to remove any residual particles that may clog the mesh. It’s also important to dry the sieves thoroughly after washing to prevent rust or corrosion especially for metal frame and mesh.
Summary
Deep frame wet wash sieves are a must have in material and particle size testing, they can process and classify particles in a liquid medium. By following strict manufacturing standards these sieves give consistent and reliable results across various applications from construction and geology to agriculture. Their design is tailored to specific sieving requirements so they are an essential part of industrial and research operations to get accurate material properties and quality control in many fields.
