Properly Calculating Open Area
Some synthetic screen media manufacturers claim their panels have “the highest open area in the industry”. However, their open area calculation is often based incorrectly on just the panel area containing holes, rather than the entire surface area. When calculating open area using the ENTIRE surface area it becomes clear that Polydeck’s MAXI screen panels have more open area than competitive designs with the same overall surface area.
OPEN AREA % = CORRECT
TOTAL OPEN AREA OF HOLES TOTAL PANEL SURFACE AREA
INCORRECT
Reference 21
When comparing panels with the same size opening, counting the number of holes is also an effective method of comparison.
