John Meunier Cont-Flo® ER Multi-Rake Bar Screen
The Cont-Flo Type ER unit is a front clean multi-rake type bar screen. The screen frame is normally set at an angle in the channel and requires only a short length of parallel channel. The bar rack is cleaned by robust rakes fastened to chains located on each side of the screen frame. The number of rakes can be adjusted to provide greater removal of screenings.
Screenings are carried up the screen bars and dead plate to the upper level of the screen where they are scraped off by a wiper onto the discharge point. The raking action is on the endless chain principle although there are normally no bottom sprockets in the flow. The chains and rakes are driven by a shaft mounted motorized gear unit and protected by a current monitor supplied with the control system.
Other available options:
- Dual speed drive
- Variable frequency drive
- Inch reverse grid obstruction clearance control scheme
