Abstract: A gasket for a shaker screen in a vibratory separator includes an outer peripheral section including an end section from which a upper lip segment and a lower lip segment project inward to generally define a U-shaped channel, wherein the outer peripheral section is formed from an electrically conductive elastomeric material, a partial upper lip projecting inward from the upper lip segment, wherein the partial upper lip is formed from a white elastomeric material, and a partial lower lip projecting inward from the lower lip segment, wherein the partial lower lip is formed from a white elastomeric material.

Abstract: A retainer holds an electronic communication device used to detect breaks in porous elements of material separators to the frame of the separator. The retainer includes a ferrule affixed around a hole through the frame of the separator, a housing made from an RF transmissible material sealingly held within the ferrule, and a cap sealingly held against the ferrule. The electronic component is held by the cap such that it is situated within the housing. Such a retainer is affixed to frames of the separator on opposing sides of a porous element so that a transmitter may be retained in a first retainer and a receiver retained in a second retainer. The transmission of a signal from the transmitter that is received by the receiver indicates a break in the porous element between the components.

Abstract: A detector for breaks in screens and filters employed in material separators includes a transmitter of RF signals and a receiver of RF signals located to either side of a screen. The separator includes a chamber having a barrier to RF signals with a path through the barrier being defined through the screen mount. The screen mount receives a screen to extend fully across the path.
