CLAMSHELL GRAB SCREENS

GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE

Clamshell grab screens are mechanical equipment designed to remove undesired solids from the water received with wastewater from the free flowing channels. Thus, the cases such as blockage and malfunction in the pumps, valves and pipes are minimized and the pollution load of the wastewater is reduced and the treatment is performed with lower costs. 

Since they can grab coarser wastes and assembled more vertical angles compared to other grab screen types, they are mostly preferred in the entry units and elevation centers of large scaled treatment facilities.
