An installation of multiple screening machines or a single screening machine with multiple feed points, such as Derrick® Stack Sizer®, requires a well-designed flow distribution system. Custom engineered to suit customer’s requirement, Derrick flow distributors are designed to split slurry flows into various numbers of equivalent streams having identical material in terms of mass flow, volumetric flow, slurry density, and particle size distribution.
Typical round flow distributor consists of an open cylindrical tank design with a center feed well surrounded by multiple discharge compartments around the circumference. These flow distributors are available from 2-way to 15-way in 24”, 30”, 42”, 50”, 60”, 72” and 84” diameters, whereas rectangular shape flow splitters are available in 3 ft x 9 ft and 4 ft x 12 ft
