Apollo Reverse Wedge Wire Screens are engineered with a FITO (Flow-In-To-Out) configuration, where the smooth face of the V-wire is on the inside. Feed enters from the internal surface and flows outward through precision-cut slots. This design ensures high flow capacity, uniform filtration, and exceptional non-clogging performance, even under heavy-duty industrial conditions.
Precision-welded V-wire construction and rigid support profiles give the screen unmatched mechanical strength, longer service life, and ease of cleaning—making it ideal for continuous process industries.
| Smooth Interior Surface |
|---|
|
The smooth V-wire surface on the inside ensures: • Zero ledges or edges for material build-up • Cleaner flow path • Minimal turbulence |
| Solids Retained Inside (Easy Cleaning) |
|
Oversized particles remain on the inside surface, where they can be: • Washed off • Mechanically scraped • Easily removed for batch operations |
| Low Pressure Drop (Low ΔP) |
|
The outward flow minimizes resistance and boosts: • Filtration speed • Hydraulic efficiency • Pump energy savings |
| Excellent Backwash Efficiency |
|
Reverse-flow screens are naturally suited for: • Backwashing • CIP systems • Auto-flush cleaning |
Apollo Screens manufactures reverse wedge wire screens according to:
– Specific slot tolerances

– OEM drawings or plant standards
– Pressure, load & RPM considerations
– Surface finish & heat treatment needs
We also offer:
