Audubon Flexible Mesh Screens provide many benefits including:
- The flexible mesh characteristic allows for movement, which allows for self cleaning of the screens. They can abosorb and withstand impact and yet at the same time fall back into place as a secondary wall.
- If you need to access your ash hopper pit or 'trough', the mesh just lifts up without total removal of the
entire screen.
- Installation is simple, fast and efficient. They can be manufactured to fit previously hung screens and fit into the exact same mounts.
- Will cut down on Maintenance Installation time and hassles. The screens are sent 'ready to hang'.
Options Include:
A large spiral Loop at the top of each screen to accept a Flat Stainles Steel Bar for hanging. This bar will readily fit your boiler frame for simplified hanging and less maintenance hassles.
Stainless Steels Bars are also availabe, cut to size for the drip screen. They are also available with pre-punched holes that will allow you to easily hang or replace ones already in place.
Mesh styles shown above are the most common, but we have capability to open up or tighten the mesh per your requirements.
They can be purchased as Single Ply Screens or Double Ply Screens...just let us know which you prefer.
The mesh is also available as one continuous roll. Your maintenance team can customize in the plant as they need it.
Plan now for your next replacement. We will have them in your plant, when you need them for your next outage installation.
