Wedge wire screen
When designing a water intake system, water intake screen is a crucial element to a well-designed system. The working condition of the entire water intake system depends on the functionality of the water intake screen. If the water intake screen is properly designed, it will establish an effective system that will reduce the maintenance costs over the lifespan of the system. Key factors for a properly designed water intake system are:
Fortunately, wedge wire screen can effectively meet all these requirements for water intake screen if properly designed. With years of design experience, we can design wedge wire screens perfectly meet your water intake demands. Here we would like to share what we have learned from successful designs.
There are some basic recommendations you need to consider in design.
Water Conditions | Materials Recommended |
---|---|
Fresh water without biological pollution issues | SS 304 is the most economical material used in fresh water conditions. |
Brackish water | SS 316 is recommended to improve corrosion resistance. |
Fresh water with biological pollution concerns | SS 2205 offers excellent resistance to biological pollution in fresh water. |
Salt water | SS 2507 not only provides great corrosion resistance in salt water, but also prevents biological pollution. |
