Differential water level measurement for control of screen raking
Application
Mechanical cleaning removes larger, floating and entrainedmatter from the intake rakes, screens or sieves. This protects the following process stages from buildup, clogging and abrasion. Solids with diameters greater than 25 mm are trapped in the coarse screens, sometimes finer secondary screens remove smaller residual materials. The screenings are processed in a press and then disposed of.
Recommended Products
VEGAPULS WL 61
The difference between the water level either side of the screen indicates the degree of contamination of the screen and activates the rake or cleaning process
