As the world's first balanced, elliptical-motion, low-profile cascade shaker, VSM 300’s use of integral secondary drying technology demonstrates our commitment to delivering cost-effective, environmentally responsible solutions for all industrial, construction and microtunneling projects. The VSM 300 is an extremely simple machine to operate, maintenance is minimal, and screen changing is carried out in 2 to 3 minutes by a single technician
Supplied in modular form, the VSM 300 can be assembled on-site to produce multiple units, thereby reducing installation time and costs. The proven shallow header tank system provides equal flow distribution across the shakers, even when multiple units are installed.
Features/Benefits
- Balanced elliptical motion
- Available with CONSTANT-G CONTROLTM (CGC), a patented technology that maintains an optimal G-force rating during variable liquid/solids loading conditions
- CGC improves flow capacity, provides constant solids conveyance and finer screening capacity
- Integrated scalping deck (three screens)
- Reduces the need for (and subsequent costs and weight of) upstream scalping shakers
- 20.5 ft2 (1.9 m2) of screening area
- Primary deck angled at 7° incline (four screens)
- Excellent solids conveyance and liquid/solids separation, even when troublesome drilling conditions arise
- Keeps the fluid pool volume small, which helps to increase screen life
- 26.3 ft2 (2.4 m2) of screening area
- Integrated drying deck (two screens)
- Reduced mud losses by creating a dry solids discharge
- 3 ft2 (0.3m2) of screening area
- Pneumoseal clamping system
- Screens are properly secured to the basket for quick and easy screen changes
- Variable frequency drive (VFD) control
- Soft-starting fingertip adjustments of motor speed and matching of G-force to operating conditions
