DUAL PASS STACKED SHAKERS AND METHOD FOR USING SAME

摘要

A dual pass shaker system and method has a first line of shakers and a second line of shakers. The first line may be parallel shakers, and the second line may be series shakers or a combination of each. Arranging the shakers above each other conserves space. The shaker system maximizes screen area exposure from the dual pass system over and/or through the stacked design of the shakers. The system allows customizing the flow of the slurry through the shakers via valves and a distribution manifold to maximize the number of screens over which the slurry flows. The slurry flows through any configuration of shakers desired.

1. A method comprising:
providing a first shaker having a screen arranged between an input and an output wherein the input is configured to receive a slurry; providing a plurality of shakers interconnected to one another wherein each of the shakers has a screen arranged between an input and an output; connecting a distribution manifold between the output of the first shaker and the inputs of the plurality of shakers; and controlling a flow of the slurry via the distribution manifold from the first shaker to a selected shaker of the plurality of shakers.
