1. Start with your shaker: is it a Driock DP 600 Series PMD?

The FT-PMD DP 600 is described as a replacement screen engineered for the Driock DP 600 Series PMD. The product page states that it matches the exact dimensions and mounting specifications of that series and is intended as a direct replacement.

• Applies: rigs running Driock DP 600 Series PMD shakers that need replacement screens.
• Does not apply: other shaker models or screen frames. If your shaker is a different model, this screen is not the right selection, and you should not assume it will fit.

Note: Hebei Fangte is not affiliated with, authorized by or endorsed by Driock®. OEM brand names and part numbers are used only to indicate compatibility. The FT-PMD DP 600 is a replacement part manufactured by Fangte.

2. Confirm dimensions, shape and weight

Compare the 710 x 626 mm size against the screens currently on your shaker or your equipment documentation. If the numbers differ, stop and check with the supplier before placing a wholesale order.

3. Choose the material grade for your drilling fluid

The screen is offered in stainless steel 304, 316 or 316L. The manufacturer highlights 316L for corrosion resistance against aggressive drilling fluids and chemical erosion in harsh environments. When you request a quotation, state which grade you need. Base that choice on your fluid chemistry and operating conditions.

4. Specify the API designation

The published API designation range is API 20 to API 325, and the product page says the screens are made to API RP13C. Separation needs depend on your solids control program, so tell the supplier the exact API designation for each screen in your order rather than buying a mixed range by default.

5. Select the series option: DX, DF or HP

The screen is available in DX, DF and HP series options. According to the manufacturer, DX and DF are different construction variations of the PMD screens, optimized for different fluid viscosities and solids loading. The source does not give a full selection rule, so consult the manufacturer's technical team with your mud type before you settle on a series.

6. Read service-life and warranty statements in context

• Service life: the manufacturer states a working life of 240 to 360 hours per screen. Actual life depends on your drilling conditions, so treat this as the supplier's published figure rather than a guarantee for every well.
• Warranty: each unit is stated to come with a 1-year warranty. Ask for the warranty terms in writing.

These figures can help with maintenance planning and replacement schedules. For example, you can track screen wear against the stated service-life range.
