Lid And Receiver

Lid and receiver assemblies are integral components of sieve analysis equipment used in various industries and laboratories for particle size distribution testing. These assemblies consist of a lid, which covers the top of the sieve stack during the sieving process, and a receiver, which collects the material passing through the sieves.

The lid is typically made of rigid material such as stainless steel or aluminum and is designed to fit securely onto the sieve stack. It serves several important functions, including preventing sample spillage during sieving, minimizing contamination, and maintaining a consistent sieving environment by preventing external influences such as air drafts from affecting the results. Additionally, the lid may feature a handle or knobs for easy handling and removal.

The receiver, also known as a pan or collecting pan, is positioned below the sieve stack to collect the particles that pass through the sieves. Receivers are available in various sizes and shapes to accommodate different sieve diameters and heights. They are usually constructed from durable materials such as stainless steel or plastic and may have perforations or mesh bottoms to facilitate drainage and prevent material buildup.

During the sieving process, the lid and receiver work together to ensure accurate and reliable results. The lid covers the sieve stack to contain the sample material, while the receiver collects the particles that pass through the sieves. After sieving is complete, the receiver can be removed from the sieve shaker or stack, and the collected material can be weighed or analyzed to determine particle size distribution.

Lid and receiver assemblies are essential accessories for sieve analysis equipment and are commonly used in industries such as pharmaceuticals, food processing, agriculture, construction, and mining. They are designed to withstand rigorous testing environments and are manufactured to meet international standards for quality and performance. Additionally, they are available in a variety of configurations to accommodate different testing requirements and applications.
