ScreenerKing manufactures direct-fit replacement screens and parts compatible with Sweco round vibratory separators. Every ScreenerKing screen is built to match the exact dimensional and material specifications your Sweco equipment requires, delivering the same separation performance at a fraction of OEM cost with faster delivery from our Houston, Texas facility.
What Is a Sweco Separator?
Sweco pioneered the round vibratory separator in 1939, creating the equipment category that is now used across food processing, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, plastics, ceramics, and dozens of other industries worldwide. The name "Sweco" has become nearly synonymous with vibratory screening equipment, and for good reason: their separators are known for reliability, versatility, and long service life.
Sweco produces round vibratory separators in several series, including the LS Series (low-profile design), the S Series (standard separator), and the MX Series (high-capacity models). These separators range from compact 18-inch lab and pilot-scale units to large 60-inch production machines capable of high-volume throughput. Sweco equipment is found in virtually every industry that requires particle size classification, scalping, de-dusting, or liquid-solid separation.
Because Sweco separators are so widely installed, replacement screens represent a significant ongoing consumable cost. ScreenerKing exists to provide that same quality at a better value with shorter lead times.

What Materials Are Available for Sweco-Compatible Screens?
ScreenerKing manufactures replacement screens in the same material grades used by Sweco, ensuring full chemical and mechanical compatibility with your process:
- 304 Stainless Steel — The standard for most food, chemical, and general industrial applications. Excellent corrosion resistance and durability.
- 316 Stainless Steel — Superior corrosion resistance for pharmaceutical, chemical, and marine applications. Required where chloride exposure is a concern.
- T-430 Stainless Steel (Magnetic) — A ferritic stainless steel option for applications requiring magnetic detection downstream or where 400-series steel is specified.
- Carbon Steel — An economical option for non-corrosive dry applications where stainless steel is not required.
- Special Alloys — Custom material options available on request for specialized applications.

Are Self-Cleaning and Sandwich Screens Available for Sweco Separators?
Yes. ScreenerKing produces self-cleaning screen assemblies that are fully compatible with Sweco separators. If your application involves materials that tend to blind or plug standard screens — such as moist powders, sticky granules, or near-size particles — a self-cleaning configuration can dramatically improve throughput and reduce downtime.
Our self-cleaning options include:
- Ball-deck assemblies — A coarse support screen sits below the fine mesh screen with rubber or silicone cleaning balls trapped between the layers. Vibration causes the balls to bounce against the underside of the fine screen, continuously clearing blinded openings.
- Sandwich screens — A fine mesh screen is sandwiched between two coarser support screens. This multi-layer construction provides mechanical support and cleaning action for delicate fine-mesh screens.
All self-cleaning assemblies are built to fit standard Sweco frame dimensions. No modifications to your separator are needed.

How Do I Identify My Sweco Separator Model?
To order the correct replacement screen, you need to know your Sweco separator size and model designation. Here is how to find this information:
- Check the nameplate. Every Sweco separator has a metal nameplate, typically located on the base or housing. The nameplate lists the model number (for example, LS24S666, S30S888, or MX48), serial number, and electrical specifications.
- Decode the model number. Sweco model numbers follow a pattern: the first letters indicate the series (LS = low-profile, S = standard, MX = high-capacity), followed by the diameter in inches (18, 24, 30, 48, 60).
- Measure the screen diameter. If the nameplate is missing or unreadable, measure the inside diameter of the screen frame. This is the most reliable way to determine screen size.
- Count the screen decks. Note how many screen levels (decks) your separator uses. Sweco separators can run single, double, or triple deck configurations.
For step-by-step measuring instructions, see our how to measure your screens guide. If you are still unsure, take a photo of your nameplate and screen frame and send it to our team — we will identify the correct replacement for you.
