Abstract

A circular vibratory screen separator having a separator housing resiliently mounted to a base. A vibratory generator is mounted to the housing for vibratory screen separation. Semicircular slots are cut through the sidewall of the housing normal to the axial centerline thereof. An inflatable seal is positioned about the inner periphery of the separator just below the slot. A stop is located just above the slot such that tension screens may be positioned through the slot into position between an inflatable seal and a stop. Strap ties extend across these slots and are fixed to the wall of the housing such that they are in tension when the inflatable seals are inflated.
