Complete Line of OEM Replacement Shaker Screens

Shaker ScreensYour First Line of Defense

Shaker Screens are used during the well construction phase of every drilling project and in conjunction with the Shale Shaker are the first line of defense in solids removal from the drilling fluid system.Using proprietary mesh technology our products deliver reliable solids removal capability combined with high fluid processing rates and outstanding operational life.

API RP 13C (ISO 13501)Reference Chart

D100 Separation and API Screen Number

As an independent replacement screen manufacturer, Screen Tech International has taken

extensive steps to follow the guidelines established by the American Petroleum Institute for proper

labeling with “Replacement Shaker Screens”. API RP13C compliance in the testing procedure means that manufacturers test certain meshes using the spelled criteria within the test. The manufacturers

then label both their screens and their screen packaging with the results of the test and are then

API compliant. The procedure tests mesh performance down to a specific micron. That micron

number falls into a range of microns. Screen tech International compliant meshes are listed above, along with Table 5, page 40 and 41 of the testing procedure to show the breakdown of API numbers and the range of microns that fall within the API

number.

Please note: Screen Tech International acknowledges that lab tests and actual

performance of the screen in the field are completely separate, and not to be interpreted as being the same. The API designation is merely a

unified labeling system set out to provide a common thread amongst all of the screen

manufacturers. In no way does the API designation determine actual screen life, or the ability of one

screen to outperform another.

SCREEN TECH INTERNATIONAL LTD. CO.Some misunderstood things about Shale Shakers.


“Replacement Screens Will VOID a Warranty”The Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) are trying to force the issue on using their screens on their own equipment. It has been said that in most cases the OEM will cancel the warranty on their shakers if you do not use their screen. It is our understanding that NONE of the OEM ever warranted their shaker baskets. To our knowledge, when asked, they will admit the shaker frame or bed is warranted for defects such as cracking, warping etc., but not for wear.

To our knowledge, when asked, they will admit the shaker frame or bed is warranted for defects such as cracking, warping etc., but not for wear.

“Replacement Screens Will Ruin the Shaker Basket”All screens wear out the cushions, support rubbers, seals, cross and side supports etc. of the shale shaker. When asked about replacement screens, OEM’s cite that wear on these items occur faster using screens other than OEM screens. We must remember that these items are expendable items and are to be replaced at frequent intervals. How quickly depends on several factors. Screens cannot be the sole factor considered for replacement of these items.


“The “Replacement” screens are heavier than the OEM screens, thus somehow impacting the lifeand performance of the shaker.” Every manufacturer of shaker screens builds their screens in a different manner. Some screens are lighter than others, and some screens are heavier than others. Some are made of a lightweight composite material, while some are made from steel tubing. The myth here is that the weight difference between the OEM vs. Replacement Screen would somehow affect the life of the shaker itself. For these purposes, let me offer you the following example: If a shale shaker is under normal operating conditions, the shaker bed will be flooded with at least 50 gallons of fluid. Some shakers will run 84 gallons of fluid. At 10ppg this equals 840 pounds displaced over the 4 screens, an average of 210 pounds of fluid per screen.Now, does anyone really think 8-10 pounds in screen weight will matter? If so, how can the shaker withstand 17ppg mud weight with an average of 357 pounds of fluid per screen?As you can see the weight between OEM screens vs. “Replacement” screens really does not impact the shaker in field application.

There are a number of other myths about screens and shakers. Just remember when you hear the next tidbit of “free advice”, be

sure and “check the price.”
