Features & Benefits
Make the most of your wastewater by installing a Shaker Screen and Stainless Steel Tank System. Increased concerns from city sewer systems mandating the reduction of suspended solids or implementing high surcharges make the Shaker Screen and Tank System a cost-effective way to enhance any commercial or industrial laundry system.
The Shaker Screen is an effective way to filter wastewater. The gyrating motion separates the suspended solids (lint, dirt, etc.) from the hot wastewater. All oversized material travels to the discharge chute where it can be disposed of properly.
To save valuable floor space, the Shaker Screen can be mounted directly above the stainless steel tank. The screened hot wastewater is stored in the tank until pumped to the heat exchanger or pit. Incoming cold water is then brought to within five degrees of the wastewater.
Screened wastewater will maximize the heat exchanger’s efficiency and reduce the need for continual backwashing.
- Shaker Screens available in 24″, 30″, 40″, 48″, and 60″
- Large inventory of screen mesh
- Reduce or eliminate wastewater surcharge and pit cleaning
Midwestern will work closely with you to establish the most effective configuration for your screening process.

The separator along with the tank can be manufactured in a variety of sizes to fit your processing needs. Either the ME Series or MR Series Separator can be used in this type of application. Midwestern’s experienced staff is available to determine the proper equipment to meet your screening needs.
The pit’s sloping bottom directs fibers and solids to the low corner from where it is then pumped to the separator. Water that goes to the screen passes through a separator feeder, reducing splashing and allowing for aeration. Screened wastewater is discharged into the stainless steel tank, and then pumped to a heat exchanger where incoming cold water is heated.
