Safety screens handle twice the pressure

A Lee Products product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Aug 13, 2008

Etched safety screens are available in 28 standard versions, offering outstanding flexibility for applications such as aircraft hydraulic systems and engine fuel systems.

A range of high-pressure flange-mount etched safety screens with burst/collapse pressures on average more than double that of the existing stainless-steel 304L type safety screens have been introduced by Lee Products.

Thanks to their rugged construction, using 17-7PH CRES material, these screens provide burst/collapse pressures (depending on the hole size) from 86/6.9bar for the 656 flange-mount option, up to 483/314bar for the 130 flange-mount option.

In addition to taking advantage of higher strength material properties, the screens are designed to excel in open area by using a pleated screen bend feature which maximises their open area, or dirt holding capacity.

The screens which are available in 28 standard versions, offer outstanding flexibility for applications such as aircraft hydraulic systems and engine fuel systems and are completely interchangeable with Lee's existing etched, flange mount safety screens.

They can be supplied in seven different flange sizes ranging from 3.3 to 16.7mm in diameter.

In addition, standard screen hole sizes include 0.1, 0.15, 0.2 and 0.38mm, nominal weights are from 0.05 to 3.1g.
