Function
The bar screen is an important front-end sewage blocking device in sewage treatment.
Suitable for water supply and drainage pump stations, urban sewage, industrial wastewater, etc., used as both coarse and fine screens.
The rake teeth made of nylon or stainless steel are assembled on the chain shaft in a certain arrangement order to form a closed circular tooth rake chain.
The entire rake tooth chain is driven by the drive sprocket and moves continuously from bottom to top, conveying the suspended solids intercepted on the rake teeth from the sewage to the ground or above the platform, and removing the materials during the rotation and meshing of the rake teeth, To achieve the purpose of protecting the water pump and reducing the processing load of subsequent processes.

Range Of Application
- Wastewater Treatment Plants: Bar screens are an essential part of the preliminary treatment stage in both municipal and industrial wastewater treatment. They prevent large objects from entering the primary sedimentation tanks, biological treatment processes, and other subsequent treatment units.
- Industrial Intake Structures: In industries such as power plants, pulp and paper mills, and food processing plants that use large amounts of water, bar screens are used to protect the intake pumps and other water - handling equipment from damage caused by debris. They ensure a continuous and clean water supply for the industrial processes.
- Stormwater Management: In stormwater treatment facilities, bar screens are used to remove debris carried by storm - water runoff. This helps to prevent clogging of downstream storm - water drainage systems and also protects the receiving water bodies from the influx of large amounts of solid waste.
It can be widely used in urban sewage treatment, tap water industry, power plant inlet, and can also be used as a front-end screening equi[mentin wastewater treatment processes in industries such as textile, food processing, papermaking, leather, etc. It is currently one of the most advanced solid-liquid screening equipment.
Technical Data
Structure and Components
- Bars or Rakes: The main component of a bar screen is a set of parallel bars or rakes. These bars are usually made of stainless steel or other corrosion - resistant materials to withstand the harsh environment of wastewater. The spacing between the bars can vary depending on the application and the size of the solids to be removed. For example, in a typical municipal wastewater treatment plant, the bar spacing might range from 6 - 50 mm. The bars are often shaped in a way that allows for efficient capture of debris, such as having a wedge - shaped cross - section.
- Frame: The bar screen is housed within a frame that provides structural support. The frame is usually made of metal and is firmly anchored to the floor or walls of the treatment facility. It ensures that the bar screen remains in a fixed position during operation and can withstand the forces exerted by the flowing water and the accumulated debris.
- Drive Mechanism: Many bar screens are equipped with a drive mechanism. This can be an electric motor - driven system that operates a chain - and - sprocket or a gear - driven arrangement. The drive mechanism allows the rake bars to move up and down or back and forth in a controlled manner. For example, in a mechanically cleaned bar screen, the rake bars are slowly lifted to remove the trapped debris from the water surface and then moved to a discharge point for disposal.
- Screen Chamber: The bar screen is installed in a screen chamber through which the wastewater flows. The chamber is designed to ensure that the water is evenly distributed across the bar screen to maximize the screening efficiency. It also has inlets and outlets for the water to enter and exit, and sometimes includes features like baffles to control the flow pattern.
