Mid Consistency Screen

Mid consistency pressure screen is a very important equipment in the pulp and paper industry. Its main function is to filter and remove impurities such as plastics, stones, undissolved wood chips, fiber lumps, etc., from the pulp. This helps ensure the purity of the pulp.

The ZNS series mid consistency pressure screen produced by Yunda is suitable for coarse screening or fine screening of CTMP, chemical pulp and waste paper pulp,It is highly adaptable, with low energy consumption and water usage, and high production efficiency.

The advantages of the ZNS series mid consistency Pressure screen

  • Multi-foil design, no winding, gentle pulse, good screening effect, high pulse frequency and bigger capacity.
  • Mid consistency pressure screen (Max. 4%), less water consumption in production, less energy cost, smaller screen basket size and lower investment and maintenance cost for same capacity.
  • Lower densification in screening section and higher screening efficiency, longer service life of screen basket.
  • Equipped with automatic oiling device and mechanical sealing water flow detection device, DCS interface reserved (detection of temperature rise and vibration of bearing), high degree of automation.

The structural principle of the ZNS series mid consistency pressure screen

Structure and Principle
Structure of mid consistency pressure screen

Mid consistency pressure screen is made of machine body, cap, screen basket, rotary drum, base and transmission part, etc. All parts exposing to stock are made of stainless steel.

Mid consistency pressure screen has vertical structure and cylindrical shell, on top equipped with a detachable cap, on shell body installed all necessary connection pipe flanges, screen body and motor rack are fixed on base with bolts, cylindrical screen basket installed in shell, rotor and bearing installed in the basket; main shaft adopts mechanical sealing.

Pipe-end bracket is arranged closest to the rack, connect sealing water and bearing lubrication with sealing component and bearing separately.

  1. The Shell of mid consistency pressure screen

As machine main body, made of welding stainless steel plates, annular seat set inside used for installing screen basket, drive bearing is installed at the base plate of the shell, tangential direction inlet pipe arranged on the upper part, accepted pulp outlet pipe on lower part, reject pipe and dilution pipe at bottom, the whole shell is fixed on the base plate by bolts.

  1. The top cap of mid consistency pressure screen

Top cap is a spherical head made of stainless steel plate, connected with shell by bolts, equipped with valve connection in central part for discharging the residual gas in machine and light impurities.

  1. The Screen basket of mid consistency pressure screen

Screen Basket has two types: plate-type waveform and bar-type waveform.

Plate-type is made of stainless steel, holed and slotted. Waveform grooves on surface contacting with pulp make fiber pass screen holes (slots) easily and separate accepted fiber from impurities and fiber floc, thus to improve the screening efficiency and obtain high quality stock. After drilling holes or cutting slots, the screen plate is polished. Thus the surface of plate is bright and clean. Reinforcing rings are welded on outside surface of basket to bring sufficient strength and stiffness; flange is fixed to basket top end by bolts while the bottom end set in basket, being firmly combined and running stably.

The bar-type waveform basket has hundreds of specially designed wedge-shaped bars, evenly inlaid in grooves cut on annular plates along the circle direction; the upper end is flange surface, connecting cylinder body; the lower end is a cone; the surface of basket is waveform, screen slots can be narrower than slots of plate-type, with higher precision, thus increase the open area apparently; bar strength is greatly improved than cut slots of plate-type screen; especially the surface hardening treatment extends the service life of basket; so, it is an advanced structures in the world in modern time.

  1. The Rotary drum  of  mid consistency pressure screen

Rotary drum is cylindrical, on outside surface reasonably welding some lugs. High rotating velocity of drum produces high-frequency impulse to screen pulp and clean screen holes.

The rotor shaft adopts mechanical sealing; in order to avoid stock leakage or entering into driving chamber, the machine is equipped with mechanical seal and sealing water connection, requiring hydraulic pressure about 0.1Mpa higher than inlet pulp pressure.

  1. The Driving device of  mid consistency pressure screen

The rotor shaft is supported in a bearing seat, driven by motor through a set of narrow V type belts; lubrication device is installed in the rack base to lubricate the bearing regularly.

The Maintenance of  Mid Consistency Pressure Screen

  1. Main shaft bearing adopt lubricating grease to lubricate, equipped with oil feeder at the front end of the engine base, oiling twice every week.
  • 2. The bearing of lid bont oil once a year.
  • 3. The tensioning of triangle adhesive tape must be checked frequently
  • 4. Checking the supply of sealing water used for mechanical sealing is normal or not frequently.

In order to avoid the difficulty in restarting, shut down in a short time, basket must be cleaned carefully, sieve must be filled with water
