`
`Derrick uses only the highest quality materials in the manufacturing of the Flo-Line® Cleaner
`503 (3-panel) and 504 (4-panel) – the most powerful and versatile shale shaker in the world
`today. The single-side tensioning system shortens screen panel replacement time to less than one
`minute per panel and can be configured for operation on either the left or right side. All FLC
`503 and 504 linear motion shale shakers are powered by two Super G® vibrating motors which
`enable the FLC 504™ to operate at a continuous 7.3 G’s and the FLC 503™ at 7.0 G’s. This
`increase in G’s at the screen surface dramatically improves the conveyance rate of a shale shaker,
`enabling maximum cuttings removal efficiency.

`
`Flo-Line Cleaner 503 and 504
`Component Shaker System
`
`Super G® Vibrating Motors
`The FLC 503 is powered by two Super G vibrating motors producing 7.0 G’s for superior performance (7.3 G’s
`on the FLC 504). The greased-for-life bearing system eliminates the need for any external lubrication, which
`reduces maintenance requirements and repair costs. Sound output is reduced to a continuous 81 dBA. The
`higher G’s generated by the Super G motors combined with Derrick’s Pyramid screen technology have proven
`to be very effective in liquid/solids separation due to superior conveyance characteristics and maximized
`available screening area. Two Super G motors are standard equipment on the FLC 503/504 and carry a two-year
`warranty, Super G2 motors are optional and carry a three-year warranty.
`
`Pyramid and Pyramid Plus “Three-Dimensional” Screens
`Derrick’s patented Pyramid (PMD™) and Pyramid Plus (PMD+™) offers 105% and 184% more usable API
`non-blanked screen area than a standard flat, perforated plate panel. Pyramid screens exceeded all expectations
`when the fluid handling capacity was found to increase up to 125%. Installation of Pyramid screens permits
`the use of finer mesh sizes at higher flow rates, further optimizing the performance of the Derrick shaker. As
`with the Derrick flat, PWP™ screen series, the Pyramid screens are capable of making separations as fine as 43
`microns. When fitted with Derrick’s Pyramid screens, the FLC 503 and 504 has the following non-blanked area
`available for screening per API RP 13C (ISO 13501): Flo-Line Cleaner 504 (4-panel) has 33.2 sq. ft. with the
`Pyramid screen and 46.0 sq. ft. with the Pyramid Plus. The Flo-Line Cleaner 503 (3-panel) has 24.9 sq. ft. with
`the Pyramid screen and 34.5 sq. ft. with the Pyramid Plus.
`
`Single-Side Tensioning System
`The single-side tensioning system shortens screen panel replacement time to less than one minute per panel and
`can be configured for operation on either the left or right side. A typical screen panel change requires a one-
`half turn of two Quick-Lok assemblies to disengage the tensioning fingers. This system provides reliable and
`consistent panel tensioning throughout the life of the machine.
`
`Adjustable While Drilling (AWD)
`The AWD (Adjustable While Drilling) is a manually operated jacking mechanism that enables one person to
`quickly and easily raise or lower the screen basket from -1° to +5° (FLC 503) and -1° to +7° (FLC 504)
`from one location. As drilling rates and formation or mud properties change, the angle of the screen deck can
`be adjusted to achieve the proper solids conveyance and fluid end point. Increased capacity, longer screen life,
`and optimal solids removal efficiency are the results.
`
`Hydrocyclones
`Derrick offers a round desilter manifold which ensures equal feed pressure to each hydrocyclone, mounted over
`the vibrating deck with the ability to hold up to twenty 3” or 4” hydrocyclones. This allows the FLC 503 and
`504 to be used as either a high performance mud cleaner or as a means to reclaim the liquid discharged in the
`cone underflow. Each 4” hydrocyclone processes 80 GPM at 75 feet of head allowing for a maximum capacity
`of 1,600 GPM. The cone underflow is caught in the pan mounted over the vibrating basket and can be directed
`to the vibrating basket or discarded. Derrick’s uni-body 4” hydrocyclone can be manufactured with an optional
`ceramic liner in the lower cone section for increased wear tolerance.
`Derrick desanders offer the flexibility of mounting either one, two, or three 10” desander cones over a cone
`underflow pan. Each 10” hydrocyclone processes 500 GPM at 75 feet of head, allowing for a maximum capacity
`of 1,500 GPM. The underflow can either be discarded or directed onto the vibrating bed for further processing.
`
`Feeders
`Derrick’s feeder designs offer the choice of a traditional weir feed, a low weir, a weir feed with bypass, or a top
`feed. The standard weir feed consists of a 40.9 gallon tank where the mud flows over a weir and onto the shaker
`basket. The low weir feed design is one of the lowest in the industry at a height of 25-3/8”. The low weir feed is
`available with an optional Extreme Seal™, capable of withstanding temperatures from -60˚ F to 340˚ F (-51˚ C
`to 171˚ C). Any of the feed systems can be used in conjunction with the Derrick Flo-Divider, a flow distribution
`device used to divide the liquid and solids equally and automatically between all of the shakers in use.

`
`Uses of the Flo-Line Cleaner 503 and 504
`The FLC 503 and 504 can be configured for use as a main shaker, high performance (1,600 GPM) mud cleaner,
`or as a secondary drilled cuttings dryer. The FLC 503 and 504 allows the user to configure the shaker and its
`interchangeable components to fit specific needs for application, size, and capacity. The FLC 503 and 504 can be used
`in the following instances:
`• As a main shaker. Two FLC 503’s or 504’s with Super G motors can be used in place of three or four
`
`
` standard shale shakers due to their exceptional fluid handling capability and superior solids conveyance.
`
` When coupled with Derrick’s Flo-Line Primer, two FLC 503’s or 504’s can replace three or four stacked
`
` or cascade shakers.
`• As a mud cleaner to dry the underflow from desanders and desilters. The FLC 503 and 504 is a useful tool
`
`
`
`in reducing the amount of liquid being discharged from desanders and desilters. This technique is effective
`
` when using an expensive drilling fluid. It also allows hydrocyclones to be a useful part of a “closed-loop”
`
` system.
`• As a cuttings dryer to recover oil base mud from drilled cuttings. When utilized for secondary drilled
`
`
` cuttings drying, the FLC 503 and 504 can reduce the oil on cuttings to below 10% by weight.
`
`The Results
`While conventional shakers operate in the 3 to 5 G force range, the Derrick Super G motors produce a continuous
`7.3 G’s on the FLC 504 (4-panel) and 7.0 G’s on the FLC 503 (3-panel).
`The higher G force generated by the Super G motors combined with Derrick’s patented Pyramid screen technology
`have proven to be very effective in liquid/solids separation due to superior conveyance characteristics and maximized
`non-blanked screening area. The FLC 503 shakers have processed in excess of 560 GPM with a 17.8 PPG mud over
`Pyramid DX-A140* screens. The FLC 504 shakers have processed upwards of 900 GPM with 9.1 PPG mud over
`Pyramid DX-A140* screens.
`*DX-A140 replaces DX175 and DX210
`The high G shaker system consisting of FLC 503 and 504 series shakers enables a drilling rig to use fewer shakers,
`or to screen finer with the same number of shakers, producing significant savings in drilling fluid and disposal
`costs. Its proven performance and durability are an asset for any drilling program.
