The dryer shaker, or dryer, is a linear motion shaker used to minimize the volume of liquid associated with drilled cuttings discharged from the main rig shakers and hydro cyclones. The liquid removed by the dryers is returned to the active system. Dryers were introduced with closed-loop mud systems and environmental efforts to reduce liquid waste haul-off. Two methods, chemical and mechanical, are available to minimize liquid discharge. The chemical method uses a system called a dewatering unit, while the mechanical method takes place through linear motion shakers. These systems may be used separately or together.

Advantages:

• Containing all good features of the standard Hunter series shaker

• More powerful vibrator motor

• Stronger vibration strength

• Higher capacity

• Better separation results with great efficiency
