Municipal wastewater and sewage screening Septic tank waste screening Industrial water and wastewater screening
| Screening opening | Channel width | Channel height | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coarse screening systems for channel | 10-50 mm | 500-2000 mm | 1500-5000 mm |
| FINE screening systems for channel | 3 & 6 mm | 300-2000 mm | 1500-5000 mm |
| FINE screening systems INSTALLED OUT OF CHANNEL | 3 & 6 mm | 300-2000 mm | 1500-5000 mm |
| Application | Screening of municipal and industrial wastewater |
| Features | The machine consists of a fixed screen and a movable cleaning rake driven by chains positioned above water level. |
| Operation | Coarse solids are intercepted by the screen. The screened material is removed by the movable rake and discharged at the top, above water level. The rake is guided by two side carriages, driven by two drive chains. |
| Construction | Compact machine in galvanized or stainless steel. The chain and all moving parts are always kept above water level. |
| Installation | In a concrete channel. |
| Channel width | From 1000 to 2500 mm. |
| Filtration level | From 20 mm to 80 mm. |
| Advantages | Chains and moving parts kept above water level |
| Options | Load cell to measure the cleaning rake’s effort, with alarm and/or screen lock. Walkway and ladder to access the mechanical components located at the top. |
The machine is controlled by a pause-work timer. If the water level upstream of the screen rises above a set threshold, a level sensor can trigger the machine to restart even while in the Work Pause phase. The machine stops in pause mode only if the rake has reached a specific position above water level and after discharge has taken place. The machine is driven by a gearmotor that raises and lowers the rake. During the downward stroke, the cleaning rake stays open until it reaches the lowest position. When the cleaning rake reaches the bottom of the channel, the chain brings it close to the screen. During the upward stroke, the rake cleans the screen and retains the screened material inside it. Before the rake reaches the top position, a dedicated device cleans its inner part and discharges the screened material outside into a skip or onto a conveyor belt. At the top point, a limit switch controls the rake’s movement.

| Application | Screening of municipal and industrial wastewater |
| Features | The machine consists of a fixed screen and a cleaning rake driven by a hydraulic cylinder. |
| Operation | Coarse solids are intercepted by the screen. The screened material is removed by the movable rake and discharged at the top, above water level. The rake is guided by two carriages, driven by two drive chains. Engagement and disengagement of the rake with the screen is carried out by a hydraulic cylinder. |
| Construction | Compact machine in galvanized or stainless steel. The drive components are always kept above water level. |
| Installation | In a concrete channel. |
| Channel width | From 1000 to 3500 mm. |
| Filtration level | From 20 mm to 80 mm. |
| Advantages | Moving parts kept above water level, high penetration force of the rake into the fixed screen. |
| Options | Load cell to measure the cleaning rake’s effort, with alarm and/or screen lock. Walkway and ladder to access the mechanical components located at the top. |
The machine is controlled by a pause-work timer. If the water level upstream of the screen rises above a set threshold, a level sensor can trigger the screen to restart even while in the Work Pause phase. The screen stops in pause mode only if the rake has reached a specific position above water level and after discharge has taken place. The machine is driven by 1 gearmotor for raising and lowering the rake, and by a hydraulic cylinder controlled by a power unit for engaging and disengaging the rake from the screen. During the downward stroke of the carriages, the cleaning rake stays open until it reaches the lowest position. When the cleaning rake reaches the bottom of the channel, a limit switch stops the descent. The hydraulic piston engages the rake with the screen and, via a signal, the gearmotor restarts, lifting the rake — now engaged with the screen — up to the discharge point. The piston is fitted with two internal proximity sensors that allow full opening or closing. During the upward stroke, the rake cleans the screen and retains the screened material inside it. Before it reaches the top position, a dedicated device cleans the inner part of the rake and discharges the screened material into a skip or onto a conveyor belt. At the top point, a limit switch stops the motor driving the screen’s lift and reverses its motion, starting the downward stroke. Meanwhile, the hydraulic cylinder moves the cleaning rake away from the screen.

It is also necessary to specify the materials with which the machine will be built
| Application | Screening of municipal and industrial wastewater |
| Features | The machine consists of a fixed screen and a grab bucket driven by two control units, one for vertical movement and the other for opening and closing the bucket. |
| Operation | Coarse solids are intercepted by the screen. The screened material is removed by the movable grab bucket and discharged at the top, above water level. The bucket is guided by two carriages, moved by two cable systems (one for vertical movement and the other for opening and closing). |
| Construction | Compact machine in galvanized or stainless steel. The drive components are always kept above water level |
| Installation | In a concrete channel. |
| Channel width | From 1000 to 3000 mm. |
| Filtration level | From 15 to 100 mm. |
| Advantages | Suitable for very deep channels, with sand present on the bottom and large-sized solids. |
| Disadvantages | Not suitable for small channels. |
| Options | Load cell to measure the cleaning rake’s effort, with alarm and/or screen lock. Walkway and ladder to access the mechanical components located at the top. |
The machine is controlled by a pause-work timer. If the water level upstream of the screen rises above a set threshold, a level sensor can trigger the screen to restart even while in the pause phase. The machine stops in pause mode only if the bucket has reached a specific position above water level and after discharge has taken place. The machine is driven by 2 gearmotors: one drives the lifting of the cleaning rake, and the other drives the unit that engages and disengages the rake from the screen. At the top of the control unit there are 3 drums: 2 side drums and 1 central drum. The drums are driven by a gearmotor and wind/unwind the cables that raise and lower the cleaning rake. The second gearmotor drives a pulley that winds and unwinds the central cable, causing the bucket to move toward and away from the screen. During the downward stroke of the carriage, the bucket stays open until it reaches the lowest position. When the bucket rests on the bottom, the hoist cable slackens and a limit switch (connected to the cable tension) stops the gearmotor. The rotation direction of the 1st gearmotor is reversed, and the second gearmotor is activated, winding in the central cable so that the bucket engages with the screen. The upward stroke then takes place, during which the bucket cleans the screen and retains the screenings inside it. Before the bucket reaches the top position, a dedicated device cleans its inner part and discharges the material into a skip or onto a conveyor belt. At the top point, a limit switch stops the motor driving the screen’s lift and reverses its motion, starting the downward stroke. Meanwhile, the 2nd gearmotor drives the central drum, moving the cleaning rake away from the screen. The downward stroke takes place with the bucket kept clear of the screen.

It is also necessary to specify the materials with which the machine will be built
| Application | Screening of municipal and industrial wastewater |
| Features | The machine consists of a filtering belt with teeth and wheels in acetal resin and stainless steel shafts, and is equipped with a cleaning brush and a washing system. |
| Operation | Water containing suspended particles passes through the filtering belt, depositing suspended solids on it. The screened material is lifted and removed with the help of a rotating brush and a washing system. |
| Construction | Compact machine in stainless steel. |
| Installation | In a concrete channel. |
| Channel width | From 300 to 2000 mm. |
| Filtration level | 3 or 6 mm. |
| Advantages | Continuous filtration, also suitable for water containing fibrous material. |
| Disadvantages | Difficulty removing solids larger than 250 mm. |
| Options | Slip coupling with alarm sensor. Double motorized cleaning brush. |
The machine is controlled by a pause-work timer. If the water level upstream of the screen rises above a set threshold, a level sensor can trigger the machine to restart even while in the Work Pause phase. The filtering belt continuously lifts the retained solids, and at the top the screened material is tipped and discharged, aided by the reciprocal movement of the teeth, a rotating brush, and two washing ramps that further remove the screened material.
To prevent wear on the tooth-carrying shafts, this machine is fitted with protective bushings mounted at the ends of the shafts, on which the wheels rotate. The wheels are made of plastic material, mass-produced, low-cost, and easily replaceable.
The guides are bolted to the frame and easily replaceable.

The machine is controlled by a pause-work timer. If the water level in the feed tank rises above a set threshold, a level sensor can trigger the machine to restart even while in the Work Pause phase. The water to be treated enters the feed compartment and is distributed over the entire surface of the drum. Filtration occurs from the outside toward the inside of the drum. The water that has entered the drum flows out from the inside toward the outside of the drum. In this way, the screening drum is kept continuously self-cleaning. The solids screened on the outer surface of the drum are removed by a scraper blade and, optionally, with the help of a motorized brush. Feed can be by gravity or by pump

Rientrano fra i fenomeni di efflusso rigurgitato anche quelli di attraversamento delle griglie, formate da barre allungate nella direzione della corrente. Le barre possono essere di varia sezione e inclinate di un diverso angolo (α) sul piano orizzontale (Fig. FG1). La perdita di carico attraverso una griglia viene determinata utilizzando la formula di KIRSHMER:
dove: – v : velocità dell’acqua in assenza della griglia; – α: angolo di inclinazione della griglia rispetto all’orizzontale; – d : spessore delle barre; – a: luce libera tra le barre; – β: coeff. di forma funzione della sezione della barra, come indicato in figura. In sostanza, il valore:
rappresenta una perdita di carico che provoca un “rigurgito” a monte o a valle della griglia, a secondo che si tratti di corrente lenta o veloce.

Valori indicativi delle perdite di carico attraverso griglie di diversa luce libera di passaggio con inclinazione di 60°
