Louver Screen
shutter screen, is manufactured by forming downward facing louver shaped openings into pipe up to 40
feet long. The process incorporates use of an internal mandrel which perforates the shutter against external
blocks. louver screen is commonly produced from a variety of steel types including carbon, copper-bearing,
high-strength low-alloy, and stainless. This type of screen is particularly suited for use in large diameter,
deep, gravel envelope wells. In many parts of the world, wells of this type pump ground water from thick
formations consisting of sands and gravels. Shutter screen is the product of choice for these wells because
it is hydraulically efficient, strong and durable. The smooth, unobstructed interior of shutter screen allows
the efficient use of highly effective development techniques such as swabbing and also facilitates employment
of efficient maintenance and repair methods.
