salt test sieve

What is a salt test sieve?

salt test sieve analyzes salt to control its particle size range or determine its purity. The sieve is suitable for sieving salts from 20 to 200 mesh. The sieve frame is made of 304/316 stainless steel, which is resistant to salt corrosion and easy to clean. The number of sieve layers can be configured from 1 to 8 layers, depending on requirements. The sieve conforms to GB/T 6005 and ASTM E11 standards and can test various types of salt, including edible salt, sea salt, and industrial salt.

The mainstream diameter of the salt test sieve is φ200mm. Both the sieve frame and screen are made of stainless steel, featuring corrosion resistance, rust resistance, stable structure, and long service life. Handheld and electric sieves are available to suit different application scenarios, and non-standard customization is supported. Round and square holes are available as options.

What is the testing method for a salt test sieve?

Before testing, prepare standard test sieves, a balance, sample pans, soft brushes, etc. During testing, stack different sieves according to their aperture size from largest to smallest, ensuring that the largest aperture is on top and the smallest aperture is on the bottom. The setup time is generally 5-10 minutes.

What are the structural components of a salt test sieve?

The sieve mesh of a salt test sieve is commonly made of stainless steel. This is to prevent the salt from corroding the mesh and causing inaccurate sieving results. Common sieve diameters are 200mm, 300mm, and 75mm, which can be selected according to the amount of salt sample. The sieve height is available in half-height and full-height versions. Half-height sieves are approximately 25-30mm high, which is easier for manual operation; full-height sieves are approximately 50mm high, which can hold more salt.

What are the benefits of a salt test sieve?

In salt sieving tests, some salt particles may be sharp and abrasion-resistant. Salt test sieves, by using abrasion-resistant metal mesh, can withstand prolonged high-frequency vibration of the salt sample without easily being damaged, ensuring the accuracy of salt sieving. Some table salt is prone to absorbing moisture and clumping. By using a vibrating sieve machine, the pseudo-crystal clumps in the salt can be broken up, ensuring that the true particle distribution of the salt is detected. Salt test sieves can also be used for grading, helping manufacturers control indicators such as salt processing effectiveness and dissolution rate, thus ensuring high-quality salt production.

Salt Test Sieves Price

The price of salt test sieves varies depending on the mesh size and sieve diameter. If using a woven wire mesh with a mesh size of 2mm-5mm, the price is approximately $12 to $20 per sieve; if using a mesh size of 500 microns to 1mm, the price is $17 to $28. The choice should be based on the particle size of the salt to be sieved. A single sieve with a 200mm diameter typically costs $25-$90. When selecting a sieve, provide your specific requirements to the supplier so they can provide suitable sieves and a quote.
