Screens for outer drum
On the outer drum, the crop passes across the screen
while the small impurities will fall through.
Thus it is the slot dimensions of the outer screen that
determine the size of the impurities arrested.
In selecting your screen you should also consider the
grain size, as a screen with too large slot dimensions will
also separate small-sized grains.
If an outer screen with oblong holes is used, it is
recommended to mount brushes to keep the screens
clean. For the grading of malting barley the brushes
must be mounted (see section "Accessories").
