The TurboStat sidehill static screen is one of the simplest and most economical methods for solids separation. All units feature a stainless steel wedge wire filtration surface. The working principle is based on a liquid current circulating over the screen's curved surface. This surface, made up of long triangular metal bars (wedgewire), provides a sequence of edges for cutting the flow, allowing the free liquid to drain through the reduced slot openings while retaining the screened solids at the base of the screen.
