Gilson Testing Screens are ideal for particle size determinations on large samples of aggregate, slag, ores, and other coarse materials. Batch sizes up to one cubic foot (0.028m³) or more can be processed into six fractions in as little as three to five minutes, depending on material type. Vibration and amplitude characteristics are fixed at optimum for mineral aggregates in the 4in (101mm) to No. 4 (4.75mm) size range, but options and accessories are available for testing finer samples or special materials. Testing Screen models have the same performance characteristics but differ in the clamping mechanism, safeguarding devices, number of tray slots, and operational convenience features.
The drive mechanism is completely enclosed for added safety and the powerful 1/2hp capacitor-type motor is operated with a starting switch with built in overload protection. Independently removable Screen Trays and Dustpans are purchased separately and shared by both Testing Screen and Test-Master® models. The Trays have replaceable Screen Cloth and are available in a wide range of opening sizes with ASTM E11 and ISO 565 specification cloth or punched steel plate. Gilson Testing Screens are designed to be mounted to a solid, rigid floor system. Securing with anchor bolts to a concrete floor is recommended.
TS-4 Gilson Silent Testing Screenis our newest model and combines all the features of the TS-3 with the addition of a sound-dampened structure and an integrated digital LED timer. The screening process is completely enclosed within the unit, providing significant dust reduction to help confine and control the airborne respirable quartz, silica, crystalline particles in the breathing zone of personnel. The door is fitted with an adjustable, heavy-duty, over-center lever latch that pulls the door tightly against the frame. The lid incorporates strong ferrite magnets that secure it in the open position to aid in the loading process and in closed position to ensure seal integrity while in operation. Wear-resistant seals on the door and lid further prevent airborne dust and fine particles from entering the lab environment during the testing procedure. The door, lid, and interior surfaces of the TS-4 are lined with sound-dampening material that significantly reduces operational noise.
