Intake Screen

Intake screen also called T-screen is used to intake and clear water in many industrial areas. They are commonly used in hydroelectric, agricultural, drinking water applications to filter unwanted materials from water. Intake screen is commonly used in lakes known as lake pump intake screen. Intake screens can be made from 304, 316, 316L, 316Ti alloys and coated mild steels. For seawater applications, super duplex screens are recommended.


Advantages of Intake Screen

T-Screens are advanced intake systems designed for efficient water withdrawal while ensuring the protection of aquatic life. They minimize debris intake, optimize flow, and comply with global environmental standards such as Section 316(b) of the Clean Water Act and the EU Water Framework Directive by optimizing slot size and approach velocity.
