Vari-Flow Traveling Screens: Maximizing Efficiency with Versatile Operation Modes

Stationary Screens for Cooling Towers: Preventing The Most Common Causes of Cooling Tower Damage

Vari-Flow Traveling Screens play a crucial role in debris removal for water intake systems.Designed for adaptability, these screens can be operated in multiple ways to meet the specific needs of different sites. Whether manually operated, controlled via a local start/stop station, or fully automated with an electrical drive, Vari-Flow Traveling Screens provide a reliable and efficient solution for managing debris.

Manual Operation: A Cost-Effective, Power-Free Solution

For remote locations or facilities aiming to reduce energy consumption, Vari-Flow Traveling Screens can be manually operated. This method requires no electrical service, making it an affordable and practical option for sites with limited infrastructure.

Local Start/Stop Station: On-Demand Control

A local start/stop station allows operators to activate the traveling screen as needed. This setup strikes a balance between manual operation and complete automation, enabling efficient debris removal in response to changing conditions.

Automated Operation: Optimized for Performance

For facilities that require a hands-free approach, our traveling screens can be fully automated using an electrical drive. Automation ensures consistent performance and efficiency, reducing the need for manual intervention.

  1. Timer-Based Automation: Screens operate at predetermined intervals, optimizing energy use whilemaintaining water intake efficiency.
  2. Differential Level Indicator Control: The system automatically activates when debris accumulation causes a water level difference, preventing blockages and ensuring steady water flow.

Selecting the Right Operation Mode for Your Facility

The ideal operation mode depends on site-specific factors such as location, debris levels, and available infrastructure. Whether opting for manual, semi-automated, or fully automated operation, Vari-Flow Traveling Screens offer a flexible and effective solution to enhance water intake performance.

With multiple operational options, Vari-Flow Traveling Screens help facilities improve efficiency, reduce maintenance demands, and maintain reliable water intake processes across various industries.
