FL2000 PMD Shaker Screen: A High-Performance Solution for Oilfield Solids Control

For oil and gas drilling operations, the shale shaker is the backbone of solids control systems—and the shaker screen is its most critical component. The FL2000 PMD shaker screen, designed specifically for Derriok FL2000 shale shakers, is engineered to deliver reliable, efficient separation of drilled solids from drilling mud, ensuring smooth, uninterrupted drilling performance. This wave-type screen with notch is a trusted choice for operators in major oil-producing regions like Iran and Saudi Arabia, where harsh drilling conditions demand durable, high-performance equipment.

1.Key Design or Performance Advantages

What sets the FL2000 PMD shaker screen apart is its optimized wave cloth structure, bonded to a sturdy metal backing plate. Unlike flat screens, the wave design increases the effective contact area by 125% to 150%, enabling higher drilling fluid flow rates while maintaining excellent solids retention. The screen is constructed with 2–3 layers of SS304 or SS316 stainless steel, arranged with precise density gradients to boost separation efficiency. This multi-layer design not only enhances filtration performance but also extends service life, even when processing abrasive oil-based, water-based, or composite-based drilling muds.

2.Technical Specifications or Practical Benefits

Built for real-world drilling applications, the FL2000 PMD shaker screen comes with a range of user-friendly features and reliable specs:

• Material: SS304 or SS316 stainless steel for corrosion and wear resistance

• Layer: 2 or 3 layers for customizable separation precision

• Mesh Range: 20-325 mesh, adaptable to various drilling mud properties

• Size: 1053*697mm, a perfect fit for FL2000 shale shakers

• Weight: 6kgs for easy handling and installation

Beyond specs, the screen offers long service life, easy disassembly, and excellent temperature resistance. It delivers superior conductivity for powder liquids and effective dreg trapping, ensuring consistent solids control performance. It also conforms to API RP 13C standards, meeting global industry requirements for quality and reliability.

For operators seeking a durable, high-performance shaker screen that stands up to the toughest drilling conditions, the FL2000 PMD shaker screen is an ideal solution.

The Importance and Technological Evolution of Shaker Screen Design

In drilling mud processing systems, the design of the shaker screen directly impacts solids control efficiency. Among these components, the shale shaker screen has garnered particular attention due to its critical role in technological advancement.

Early screens primarily featured two-dimensional designs, such as plate screens or perforated plates. Today, three-dimensional screens have become the industry standard, incorporating wave, corrugated, or pyramid-shaped structures that significantly increase the contact area. This innovative design enhances separation potential—referring to the precision with which the screen can retain particles of specific sizes.

Screen performance is evaluated based on several key parameters:

  • Separation potential: Determined by the ratio of screen aperture size to particle size.
  • Flow capacity: Measures the volume of fluid passing through the screen per unit time, typically verified via oil permeability testing and marked with an API value.
  • Aspect ratio and transmittance: Higher aspect ratios combined with lower transmittance generally indicate superior screening efficiency.

With the increasing complexity of drilling conditions, demands for shale shaker screens have become more diversified. The industry is leveraging material and structural innovations to develop shaker screens tailored to varying flow rates and particle requirements, balancing screening effectiveness with durability and ease of maintenance.

Technological advancements continue to optimize screen design, providing reliable support for the efficient operation of drilling activities.

The relation between shaker screen mesh and the hole diameter

Shale shake screen is a vulnerable spare parts of shale shaker.But the shaker screen is very important in drilling mud recycling system.The shaker screen’s design and quality determined the separation performance of the shale shaker.

Generally speaking,the working environment and the drilling mud contents are the most determined factors to choose suitable shaker screen.

The other factor is the size of the particle in the drilling mud fluid to be separated.If you know the particle size,so the shaker screen mesh is determined.What is the shaker screen mesh?

Shaker screen mesh refers to the quantity of hole within per square inch. So the shaker screen mesh has an inverse proportional relation with the hole quantity.

That is to say,the larger the shaker screen mesh,the smaller the screen hole size.Commonly speaking,the relation between them is:

Mesh X Hole Diameter(micron)=15000

For example,if the shaker screen mesh is 200,then we can estimate that the screen hole diameter is about 75 microns.

This is very useful for us to choose proper shale shaker screen according to the mud fluid contents.
