Water Intake Screen

Availability:



Water Intake screens,also called passive intake screens and wedge wire intake screens,are constructed of non-plugging V-shaped wires with continuous and smooth slots.Point welded onto the wedge wire support rod,intake screen supply large open area and low velocity flow through the entire screen surface.This reduces impingement and entertainment of debris while protecting aquatic life.The slot width ranges from 1 mm to 10 mm(0.04"to 0.4")and 3 mm(0.12")is the most common.Intake screens are regarded as the first safeguard of intake system to keep fish safe and protect pumps and turbines from harmful debris.They are both efficient and environmentally safe.

Product Description

Water Intake screens are typically installed at the inlet point of a pumping system and are designed to protect pumps and other equipment from debris, contaminants in the lakes or water bodies, and to prevent aquatic animals from entering the pipeline.

Water intake screen primarily uses wedge wire as the filter screen. The continuous smooth V-shaped wedge wire ensures its open area and filtration effect. It also has self-cleaning and backwashing capabilities to reduce the risk of clogging, significantly improve maintenance efficiency and minimize the need for maintenance.

Based on the water flow rate and applications, SLOT offer T intake screens, half-barrel intake screens, I type intake screens, drum type intake screens and small pipe type intake screens.

Product Advantages

Intake screen can play a significant role in providing water sources for various devices
SLOT Screens’passive intake screen operates continuously and requires no downtime for cleaning or routine maintenance

Maximum Efficiency

The combination of the non-plugging Vee-Wire design and the patented internal flow modifier, provides a high open area while maintaining the lowest entrance velocity and pressure drop. This delivers a maximum water capacity with minimal entrainment and impingement.
Less Maintenance

The controlled entrance velocity on the passive intake screen, along with the specially matched air backwash, keeps the system clean and operating properly
Custom Designed and Engineered

Application engineers from SLOT can provide design and application assistance. From shallow rivers to deep oceans, the Johnson Screens passive intake screen systems can meet site requirements anywhere in the world.
Lower Cost

The unique and flexible design of the passive intake screen system results in lower initial costs, no moving parts, less maintenance needs and a simplified installation — allowing for a reliable, inexpensive water supply.
