Many clients asked us this question, how to revert API to micron of separation point/cut point or mesh for shaker screen mesh, even many of shaker screens manufacturers do not know this well. Some manufacturers use the API number as mesh directly, this is incorrect, if clients do not have professional knowledge, they will use the wrong mesh screens and can not get the ideal result.

Here we will introduce how to revert API to micron for shaker screens. Take below shaker screen designation as example. Since different manufacture will have different screendesignation and configuration.

Mesh Conversion table
Mesh designation	Micron	API number
20	840	20
30	590	30
40	420	40
50	297	50
60	250	60
70	210	70
80	177	80
100	149	100
120	125	120
140	105	140
170	88	170
200	74	200
230	62	230
270	53	270
325	44	325

This is a chart to show how to convert mesh to microns, to know how to convert microns (D100 separation), then to know how to convert mesh to API, or API to mesh.

Shaker screen API is another mean indicating screen mesh size but more standard and compatible. Mesh size or designation from different suppliers will indicate various separation point or D100 cut point then come to certain API size according to latest API RP13C.
