Dilution and disposal costs are minimized with the Flo-Line® Cleaner 2000 shale shaker. Integrating the industry's latest advancements in shaker design, high capacity, fine screening, and drier cuttings discharge, this machine can dramatically reduce operating costs. Combining high G-force vibrating motors with Derrick's exclusive Pyramid screen technology, the FLC 2000 significantly improves solids separation.
The FLC 2000 shaker is available in both 3- and 4-panel designs. The 3-panel machine operates at 7.0 G's, and the 4-panel shaker operates at 7.3 G's. Demonstrated processing rates have ranged from 560 GPM of a 17.8 PPG fluid using Pyramid DX-A140* screens on a 3-panel machine to more than 900 GPM of a 9.1 PPG fluid with Pyramid DX-A140* screens on a 4-panel shaker. The available screening area per API RP 13C for the FLC 2000 3-panel is 24.9 square foot with the Pyramid screen and 31.95 square foot with the Pyramid Plus screen. For the FLC 2000 4-panel, the available screening area per API RP 13C is 33.2 square foot with the Pyramid screen and 42.6 square foot with the Pyramid Plus screen.
Fast, easy, and reliable screen panel tensioning is provided by two pairs of Rapid-Change draw bolts on each side of each screen panel. Ramp-Lok tensioning is available for the FLC 2000. Its hydraulic, adjustable while drilling (AWD) is designed for quick, easy deck adjustment and operates from -1° to +5° on the 3-panel shaker and -1° to +8° on the 4-panel model. Top, weir, and weir bypass feeders are available for both machines.
Two Derrick Super G vibrating motors produce the high G, linear motion that powers the FLC 2000 shaker. These motors feature permanently lubricated, sealed bearings and are designed for maintenance-free operation. Super G2 vibrating motors are available as an option for the FLC 2000. These patented motors feature oil-bath bearing lubrication that significantly reduces maintenance and dramatically lengthens bearing life. Both motors offer low noise levels resulting in a significantly reduced decibel level during shaker operation-approximately 81 dBA with the Super G motors and 78 dBA with the Super G2 motors.

Flo-Line Cleaner 2000 4-Panel with 6" Cones Platform
The FLC 2000 has a modular design allowing the shaker to be configured to operate as a primary shaker, a desander/desilter, or a high performance mud cleaner with 6” hydrocyclones. The modular design concept allows a round desilter manifold and/or a desander manifold to be mounted in a cone discharge collection pan over the vibrating screen deck. The underflow from the hydrocyclones is collected in the underflow collection pan where it can be diverted directly to discharge or across the vibrating screen surfaces for further processing.
