Installing and fixing the analytical sieves
The AS200 is suitable for use with analytical sieves with
outside diameters of up to 215 mm.
It is possible to install up to 16 analytical sieves 25 mm
high or 8 sieves 50 mm high, plus the base pan in each
case.
A variety of clamping units and covers is available for
use with sieves from 100 to 215 mm O.D. (see the
accessories listing).
Fixing with the sieve clamping unit –
economy or standard
* Screw the threaded rods E into the sieve plate and lock with
the hex nuts F.
* Center the selected sieve stack on the sieve plate.
* Lay the economy C or standard B sieve cover on the top
sieve, around the threaded rods.
* Tilt the clamping nuts D to slide them over the stationary
threaded rod and down to the sieve cover; turn down hand
tight.
We recommend using talcum powder if the base pan
sticks to the smooth surface of the sieve carrier when
removing the sieve stack.
Shorter threaded rods (see accessories listing) are
available to secure a maximum of five analytical sieves
and a base pan; these rods are for use with the
economy and standard sieve clamping units.
