MODELS SCREENING EQUIPMENT
EM32A - SUB-VERTICAL MECHANICAL BAR SCREEN (DOWNSTREAM) WITH CHAINS ABOVE WATER
| Application | Screening of civil and industrial waste water. Screening of water for hydroelecgtric power plants. Screening of water for land reclamation works. |
| Characteristics | The machine is equipped with a fixed bar screen and movable cleaning rake driven by chains installed above the water level. |
| Operation | The coarse bodies in the waste water are stopped by the bar screen. This material is removed by the cleaning rake and discharged in the upper part, out of water. The rake is guided by two lateral trolleys which are driven by two transmission chains. |
| Materials | Compact machine: hot dip galvanized carbon steel or stainless steel. The chains and the moving parts are always above the water level. |
| Installation | In a concrete channel. |
| Channel width | From 1000 to 2500 mm. |
| Degree of filtration | From 20 to 80 mm. |
| Advantages | Chains and moving parts above the water level |
| Optional | Torque limiting device to measure the cleaning rake stress with alarm and/or machine shutdown. Walkway and ladder to reach the top mechanical members. |
OPERATION DESCRIPTION
The machine operation is controlled by a Pause-ON timer.
If the water level upstream the mechanical bar screen should increase and exceed a pre-set threshold, a level measurer can start the machine, even during the pause phase.
The machine stop and the beginning of the pause phase is possible only whether the cleaning rake has reached a pre-set position out of water and the material collected has been discharged.
The machine is operated by a geared motor which moves the cleaning rake.
During the lowering phase, the cleaning rake is in open position and remains open as far as the lowest position is reached.
When the cleaning rake reaches the bottom of the channel, the chain makes the rake get closer to the bar screen.
So during the lifting phase, the rake cleans the bars and holds the screened material inside.
Before the cleaning rake reaches the top position, a special device cleans its internal part and discharges the material outside, into a container or on a belt conveyor.
At the top, a limit switch controls the cleaning rake operation.
