Bar Screens

Overview

Bar screens are your first line of defence against coarse solids. K-Pack supplies manual screens for low-flow channels and mechanical rakes for continuous 24×7 operation — including coarse, fine and parabolic configurations.

How It Works

Process flow and treatment mechanism in simple steps:

1. 1

   Wastewater passes through a bar rack with defined spacing between bars.

2. 2

   Solids larger than the bar spacing are retained on the screen face.

3. 3

   Manual screens are cleaned by operators; mechanical units lift debris automatically to a discharge conveyor.

4. 4

   Screenings are removed for disposal while cleaned flow continues to downstream equipment.

Applications

Industries and situations where this product is ideal:

• Municipal and industrial plant inlets
• Pump house protection
• Low-flow and high-debris channels
• Pre-screening before DAF and clarifiers

Technical Highlights

Sizes, flow capacities, material options and design notes:

• Manual and fully automatic mechanical options
