Wedge Wire Lateral Assemblies: Precision and Excellence at the Heart of Filtration
Wedge wire screen laterals assemblies are ingeniously crafted vessel internals, composed of a robust hub steel pipe seamlessly integrated with screen laterals. These components efficiently collect or distribute liquid and gas, ensuring impeccable performance while securely preventing any medium from escaping.
Wedge Wire Screen Lateral Assemblies, also renowned as Under Draining Filtering systems, water distributors, or medium collectors, exemplify versatility and advanced functionality.
Our expertise allows us to meticulously design wedge wire screen laterals assemblies tailored to your specific needs, considering Vessel/Filter dimensions, flange size, flowrate requirements, and medium sizes for optimal performance.
Furthermore, the middle row device of the wedge wire screen laterals assemblies is customizable in diverse shapes, such as the standard radial type, fishbone design, or T-type, all crafted-to-perfection. The lateral branch pipe and hub master pipe sizes are also produced to meet bespoke customer specifications, ensuring a perfect fit.
Wedge wire screen laterals assemblies find extensive application in ion exchange systems, clay and sand filtration processes, carbon towers, power plant water systems, and a myriad of other sophisticated equipment.

Hub and Header Lateral Assembly
The sophisticated design of wedge wire screen laterals assemblies is categorized into hub lateral assembly and header lateral assembly. This division is based on their strategic installation positions and functional roles within the tank, ensuring optimal performance.
- Positioned at either the top or bottom of the tank, the hub lateral assembly plays a crucial role in the efficient distribution and collection of liquids, optimizing the flow at the equipment's outlet.
- Strategically placed in the tank's middle section, the header lateral assembly ensures impeccable liquid distribution and discharge. Its design effectively prevents any unintended media outflow, thus maintaining system integrity.
- Our hub and header lateral assemblies are available in diverse configurations, including the innovative radial and fish spike types. With the flexibility to design and manufacture these assemblies to varying main pipe diameters and lateral quantities, we meet specific customer specifications with precision and expertise.
Hub Radial Lateral Assembly
The hub radial lateral assembly, featuring a central hub and multiple screen laterals, is typically positioned at the top or bottom of the vessel. Serving as both a hub-lateral distributor and collector, it ensures precise liquid management, particularly in radial flow equipment such as centrifuges. Available in configurations from 4 to 16 laterals, and in single or dual layer designs, it guarantees uniform liquid distribution or concentrated collection within the equipment.
Hub Fish Spike Lateral Assembly
Distinguished from the hub radial design, the hub fish spike lateral assembly is engineered for optimal liquid distribution at the top and effective collection at the bottom of large tanks, ensuring flawless operation in expansive systems.
Header Lateral Assembly
Crafted with a central header and multiple screen laterals, the header lateral assembly is strategically placed in the tank's mid-section. It guarantees seamless liquid distribution or collection, adapting to diverse process conditions while delivering exceptional distribution efficiency.
