Gilson Silent Sifter: Quiet Precision for Particle Sizing
The Gilson Silent Sifter redefines laboratory particle sizing by prioritizing noise reduction and worker safety without compromising accuracy. This advanced rotary sifter significantly lowers operational noise levels by 7–18dB compared to standard models, thanks to Gilson's proprietary silencing technology.
Ideal for aggregate gradations and often preferred by state departments of transportation, the Silent Sifter handles a wide particle size range from 1in to No.635 (25mm–20µm). It offers unparalleled versatility, instantly converting between 8in, 12in, 200mm, or 300mm test sieve diameters. With capacities ranging from six 12in full-height sieves to twenty 8in half-height sieves (including a pan), it accommodates diverse testing needs.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Exceptional Noise Reduction: Achieve a quieter lab environment with 7–18dB lower noise levels than traditional rotary sifters.
- Enhanced Worker Safety: The tightly sealed cabinet, constructed from high-quality CNC machined MDF, uses sound-deadening materials and a proprietary design to confine respirable dust, protecting personnel and simplifying cleanup. Safety interlocks and covered moving parts ensure OSHA compliance.
- Effortless Operation: No clamping required. Simply place the sieve stack, close the door, tilt, and press start.
- Precise Particle Separation: Continuous rotation by rubber-covered stainless-steel drive rollers combined with mechanical hammers ensures accurate and efficient particle sizing.
- Robust & Mobile Design: Features a heavy-duty powder-coated steel stand with 4in locking swivel casters for easy laboratory mobility.
- Advanced Control: A digital countdown timer/controller offers precise operation up to 99 minutes and 59 seconds with a pause function and LED display. Settings are saved, and an audible alarm signals completion.
