The Hubert travelling band screen is the ‘heart’ of the ‘screening train’, often used used for (sea)water intakes as part of power plants and desalination plants, where big tidal differences can also play a role.
Hubert travelling band screens can be configurated as a skid, which minimizes on-site mounting. The band screen can also be part of the civil construction and assembled on site (embedded).
A travelling band screen is more compact than a drum screen, but it has still a high capacity. Quite common flow rates are 15.000 m3/h per screen, depending on customer requirements and the local situation at the intake. Today, a lot of duplex and super duplex (PREN > 40) is used for screens.
Hubert traveling band screens are available for different flow patterns.
Hubert’s traveling band screens can be supplied with a fish recovery gutter or channel that allows trapped fish to be removed in a gentle and effective way. These recovery systems are tailor-made for each project.
