RETSCH German test sieves conform to ISO 3310-1 and ASTM E11. Two mainstream sizes are offered: metric Φ200 mm (25/50 mm depth) and imperial 8-inch (203 mm, 1/2-inch depth), covering apertures 20 μm–125 mm for dry & wet particle sieving. Widely used in food, pharma, construction, chemical, mining and environmental labs, they excel in material quality, precision, traceability and complete supporting kits.
1. Optimized Stainless Steel Frame
The seamless one-piece frame has built-in grooves for O-rings to block powder leakage during stacking. Standard outer dimensions enable compatibility with all brands of sieve shakers. Smooth inner walls leave no residual samples and simplify cleaning to avoid cross-contamination.
2. High-Alloy Stainless Steel Material
Made of premium stainless steel, the frames and mesh resist deformation, acid, alkali and solvent corrosion. Matte passivated surfaces reduce powder adhesion and support ultrasonic cleaning. The material meets food and pharmaceutical hygiene standards without heavy metal leaching.
3. Precision Permanently Tensioned Mesh
Custom stainless wires are woven into matched mesh. Exclusive high-temperature welding keeps mesh taut permanently without sagging. full-area optical inspection strictly controls aperture tolerance for consistent, repeatable testing data.
4. Complete Standard Sizing System
- Φ200 mm metric: 25 mm shallow frames for small samples; 50 mm deep frames for bulk materials, for domestic testing standards.
- 8-inch imperial: for overseas export inspection.Users may select ISO metric or ASTM mesh marking, with full aperture gradients for multi-stage particle classification.
5. Full Original Accessory Kit
All stainless steel accessories match the two sizes:
- Dry sieving: collection pans, intermediate pans, lids, spacer rings; outlet pans simplify sample collection.
- Wet sieving: vent rings prevent liquid backflow and material loss for slurries.
- Spare O-rings and sieve storage racks are available.
6. Traceability & Compliance Certificates
Each sieve is permanently laser-etched with unique serial number, aperture, standard and size, untamperable. Serial numbers support full factory record lookup to pass GMP, CMA, CNAS and ISO audits. Factory test reports come standard; formal calibration certificates with measured data are available on demand to reduce testing systematic errors.
7. Cross-Industry Applications
- Construction & mining: Cement, sand, soil and mineral grading.
- Food & agriculture: Flour, grains, seeds and fertilizer testing.
- Chemical & new materials: Plastic, pigment and ultra-fine energy powder analysis.
- Pharma & biology: API powder and medical suspension sieving.
- Environment & metallurgy: Metal powder, sludge and waste particle detection.
8. Key Product Advantages
- Universal compatibility works with all sieving equipment; dual standards cut procurement costs for import & export manufacturers.
- Durable frames and non-slack mesh lower long-term replacement and cleaning expenses.
- Full mesh inspection and leak-proof stacking eliminate inaccurate test results and re-tests.
- Laser serial codes and official certificates meet all laboratory audit requirements.
- Supports both dry and wet sieving to cover most lab particle analysis tasks and save storage space.
Conclusion
RETSCH woven test sieves are standardized, traceable particle analysis solutions. Featuring sturdy stainless steel, precision tensioned mesh, full optical quality control and complete certifications, they deliver outstanding accuracy and durability for academic research, third-party inspection and industrial quality control.
