Calculate the approximate clean pressure drop and inlet velocity for your intended flow rate (based upon water) by changing the default (max) values below (green box) with the design value. The Sg of Water is 1. (The screen velocity is based upon the standard perforated basket and its' percentage of open area. Use our calculations page to generate data for other perf or mesh sizes.
