In Channel Screw Screen

Explore the advantages of in-channel screw screens for efficient solid-liquid separation and compacting in wastewater systems.

The CSS and SSS screw screens, available with or without a compactor, are designed for efficient solid-liquid separation. They seamlessly integrate two key processes: filtration and compacting. Here’s a breakdown of their features and benefits:

Key Components and Functions:

  • Screen Basket: Available in perforated sheet or wedge wire, this acts as an effective filter.
  • Tubular Transport Section: Leads to a compacting/dewatering module, optionally equipped with a chute or bagging system.
  • Shaftless Screw with Brushes: Fitted with bolted plastic brushes in the screen basket section for cleanliness, it conveys screenings to the compacting section.
  • Compacting/Dewatering Module: Reduces volume and weight of screenings by up to 40%.

Installation and Construction:

  • Channel Placement: Designed to fit within a channel of appropriate width.
  • Channel Width Compatibility: Suitable for channels up to 850 mm wide.
  • Material Options: Various combinations of stainless steel (grades 304, 316, or Duplex) and high-strength carbon steel, with spiral options in carbon steel, 304, or 316.

Optional Features:

  • Custom Discharge Chutes: Additional or tailor-made options available.
  • Washing Systems: For the basket and/or transport section, reducing odor issues.
  • Compacting Module Washing System: Standard feature to eliminate odors, operable manually or via a solenoid valve.

Advantages:

  • High Efficiency: Optimized for maximum performance.
  • Simplicity: User-friendly design and operation.
  • Ease of Installation: Straightforward setup process.
  • Simple Maintenance: Minimal upkeep required.

Maintenance and Operation:

  • Brush Replacement: Typically needed after 2 years, with Simeco’s unique pivoting system simplifying the process.
  • On-Site Maintenance: Can be performed by untrained personnel due to the system’s design simplicity.

Control Panel Options:

  • Customization: Available with an electromechanical or PLC-controlled panel upon request.
