IN-LINE GUARD SCREENS
What Does PrepQuip’s In-Line Guard Do?
PrepQuip’s In-Line Guard Screen removes unwanted and oversized material in water or slurry streams, therefore preventing blockages and protecting downstream equipment like pumps and nozzles of damage from oversize material. The PrepQuip In-Line Guard Screen is supplied as either a standard unit or can be customised to the clients’ specific needs. They can be operated either manually or automatically depending on your operating preference. The In-Line Guard Screen comes in a range of different sizes, anything from 80 to 500mm (NB) and can handle capacities from 41 to 1590 m³/hr and aperture sizes from 160 μm – 10 mm.
More recently the PrepQuip In-Line Guard screen has been implemented as a safety feature on fire water lines to ensure that no oversize material blocks or damages the fire water hose nozzles. This ensure that when an emergency arises, there is trust that the fire water used will be debris free.
