Wedgewater™ Sieve
Durable wedgewire screening for solids separation in municipal and industrial applications.
What It Is
The Wedgewater™ Sieve is a stainless steel wedgewire screening and separation system designed for solids removal in municipal and industrial wastewater applications. Using passive gravity-assisted screening with custom slot widths, it provides durable, low-maintenance solids separation without moving parts or electrical power.
How It Works
The sieve uses passive, gravity-assisted screening to separate solids from liquid flow. Wastewater passes through the precision-slotted wedgewire surface, allowing water to flow through while retaining solids above the screen. Custom slot widths are manufactured to match your specific application requirements — from coarse screening at headworks to fine separation before filter beds.
Applications
- Headworks solids removal
- Septage pre-screening
- Lagoon outlet screening
- Pre-treatment before filter beds
Construction & Materials
All Wedgewater™ Sieves are constructed from stainless steel wedgewire, providing excellent corrosion resistance and long service life in harsh wastewater environments. Custom dimensions are available to fit your specific channel, basin, or pipe configuration.
Key Benefits
- Passive gravity-assisted screening — no moving parts
