Wedge Wire Lateral Assembly, Header Lateral Screen Providing Uniform Flow Distribution or Collection for Vessel Filtration
The wedge wire lateral assembly, also known as the header lateral screen, is an essential component of vessel internal filtration systems. Made from high-quality stainless steel, it features precision-welded wedge-shaped wires that create uniform slot openings. These openings allow for effective fluid distribution and prevent clogging, ensuring optimal performance over time.
Whether used in vessel and tank internals or media retention systems, this stainless steel lateral assembly provides superior durability and corrosion resistance.
Designed to ensure uniform fluid distribution and efficient media retention, these header lateral screen systems are widely adopted in industries ranging from water treatment to chemical processing and ion exchange filtration.
