Wire Wrapped Screens

Wire wrapped screens were already developed and in use in the U.S. about 90 years ago. This design makes it possible to adjust the slot width with minimum tolerances to the characteristic grain-size distribution curve of the respective aquifer and manufacture the slots in such a way that an optimal sand removal from the adjoining natural rock is possible.

Advantages

  • In-house manufacturing
  • Short delivery times
  • Manufacturing in compliant to DIN 4935

The wire wrapped screen provides optimal conditions for the well development (pistoning, pumping, jetting). The kinetic energy of the flowing water is increased by the nozzle of the conical slots. The wire wrapped screen, with its inward expanding slots, is particularly suitable for the inflow of water laden with small particles. Thus clogging is avoided.
