An operator sought to compare the performance of conventional screens versus DURAFLO composite replacement screens in a side-by-side test. M-I SWACO conducted a full vibratory systems analysis test on three BRANDT KING COBRA VENOM shakers. Screen replacement, gasket condition, and mesh wear were evaluated at an equivalent flow rate of 570 gpm and deck angles for unbiased results.
