A practical evidence checklist for RFQ preparation and supplier evaluation.
CNFX does not score or rank suppliers. Buyers must verify all claims and documents with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
The feed box receives drilling fluid from the flow line and distributes it evenly across the width of the vibrating screens, ensuring efficient separation of solids from the liquid.
Common materials include carbon steel, stainless steel, and abrasion-resistant steel, chosen for durability against abrasive drilling fluids.
Typical reference ranges include an inlet diameter of 150–300 mm, outlet width of 600–1200 mm, capacity of 30–60 L/s, pressure of 0.1–0.3 MPa, and temperature of -20 to 80°C. Always verify with the manufacturer.
Check the nameplate or technical documentation for model-specific values. Confirm standards like IEC 60529 for sealing with the supplier.
