Wedge Wire Resin Traps

A resin trap, often referred to as a resin trap strainer or filter, is a device designed to capture and remove unwanted particles, debris, or contaminants from a fluid stream.

A resin trap consists of a pipe housing and a resin trap screen. A resin trap wedge wire screen protects your media beds in the event of a catastrophic failure. Generally, resin trap screens are flanged at the bottom of a sand filter tank or mixed bed and protected by mostly stainless steel or plastic housing. When the resin or media passes by, it can be intercepted and captured by the wedge wire filter screens. At the same time, the captured resin or media can be discharged out of the system by flushing automatically through the differential pressure between the front and rear installed near the outlet of the water system line. 

Furthermore, wedge wire resin trap screens should be considered in the backwash lines of most ion exchange and carbon systems because temperature-related flow changes can cause these costly materials to be flushed.

Wedge wire resin traps serve as a last line of defense in ion exchange systems by capturing dislodged resin beads before they reach downstream equipment.

At their core, these traps are designed to ensure operational safety, prolong equipment life, and prevent costly downtime. 

Key Features & Benefits of Wedge Wire Resin Traps

✔ High-Precision Filtration

Customizable slot sizes from 0.2 mm to 2.0 mm ensure accurate retention of resin beads without flow restriction.

✔ Non-Clogging Design

V-shaped wires create a self-cleaning surface, allowing for higher flow rates and minimal maintenance.

✔ Stainless Steel Durability

Constructed from SS 304, 316L, or Duplex for excellent corrosion resistance in aggressive chemical environments.

✔ Custom Configurations

Available in inline, flanged, or threaded versions to suit your system's piping and flow requirements.

✔ Backwash-Compatible

Designed to withstand backpressure and allow reverse flow cleaning for extended service life.

Applications Across Industries

Wedge wire resin traps are used in a wide range of water treatment applications:

• Ion Exchange Systems: Cation, anion, and mixed-bed units

• Water Softening Plants

• Demineralization & Deionization Systems

• Condensate Polishing in Power Plants

• Ultrapure Water Systems in Electronics and Pharma

• Pre-filtration for Reverse Osmosis Systems

• Municipal Drinking Water Treatment

• Seawater desalination in industrial water uses

YUBO Resin Trap Specifications & Technical Parameters

The wedge wire screen resin trap is made up of rods and warp. The rod can be round wire, triangular wire, or trapezoid wire.

At the same time, wedge wire screens have many advantages such as heat resistance, good machine capability, safety and reliability, and so on. It can be used in many kinds of medium filtering.
