Apparatus, System and Method For Connecting Filtration Screens

摘要

A method, an apparatus and a system connects a high-capacity filtration screen to a regular-capacity filtration screen through an adapter. The adapter is positioned adjacent to the high-capacity filtration screen. Barbs protrude from the high-capacity filtration screen to interlock with the adapter. Barbs extend from the adapter and insert into corresponding orifices in the regular-capacity filtration screen. The filtration screens and adapter are installed in a separator. A tapered edge of the adapter is aligned with the filtration screens. A cross-member extends from a first side to a second side of the adapter. A support beam is positioned lengthwise along an underside of the adapter.
