We recently installed a vertical XG12 type bar screen automatic on a wastewater treatment plant, replacing a «staircase» bar screen type from a competing brand. The same operation had been carried out in 2017 on the parallel canal.
In addition to a good deal of handling inside the premises to install the various pieces of the second one bar screen, our technicians took advantage of this move to – at the request of the client – increase the gap between the first one’s grille bar screen from 15 to 6mm. To do this, they had to lower the upper chassis, replace the lower chassis, and finally replace the serrated plate.
This carefully planned intervention required two days of work by two technicians.
