MODEL VKR KNUCKLE-RAKE BAR SCREEN

The VKR Knuckle-Rake Bar Screen is a budget and maintenance friendly screen intended for many years of care-free service. The VKR Screen is an automatic, self-cleaning mechanical bar screen customized for existing and new construction with bar openings 1/4-inch and larger.So what’s different? The Model VKR Knuckle-Rake Bar Screen uses a unique knuckle chain link that only bends in one direction. This allows engagement of the rake teeth into the bar rack by the knuckle link design forming its own lower turn-around without a sprocket or guide rail system in the flow. The knuckle link design allows the rake heads to disengage from the bar rack should a large object be encountered or an object is lodged in the bar rack. However, to ensure an adequate force still exists to dislodge material in the bar rack, Vulcan placed a high level of importance on the link design. For this reason, Vulcan casts the links to weigh 6 pounds; an improvement of 33 percent over the competition. This is extremely important for a screen that relies on the weight of the links and rake heads to maintain rake head engagement into the bar rack. We want the rake heads to disengage to remove large material, but we also want to ensure tooth penetration doesn't suffer when blinding occurs. Each rake head is provided with rake teeth so that every rake head engagement cleans the three sides of the bar rack bars exposed to the screenings. No flat head “staging” scraper used (or needed). Rake head shapes control where the screenings end up. VKR rake heads are formed with a scoop shovel shape to contain the screenings collected from the bar rack. That way, screenings are kept on the rake head until the rake wiper removes them automatically. This reduces the amount of screenings falling back into the flow or onto the operating floor.

MODEL ESR STAIR SCREEN

The Model ESR Stair Screen is an automatic, self cleaning, fine screen for primary, secondary or sludge screening in municipal and industrial sewage treatment installations. The screens are also ideal for industrial applications such as slaughterhouses, tanneries, breweries, and paper plants. The design of the Model ESR Stair Screen allows for easy installation in new and existing facilities without channel modification. With a maximum setting angle of 57º, the Model ESR Stair Screen has a compact overall footprint. The side frames of the Model ESR Stair Screen are constructed of formed stainless steel plate having a thickness of 0.24” (6 mm). The screening elements (aka lamellas) in the screening area are stainless steel. The lamellas in the transport area can be stainless steel or a corrosion resistant, UV stabilized synthetic material, depending on the overall height of the screen. The drive system consists of a gear reducer, motor, and a dual chain transmission system with automatic chain tensioning devices. To prevent corrosion, ease maintenance and ensure years of reliable service, the drive system is located completely above the maximum water level, and the gear reducer and motor are encapsulated away from the corrosive atmosphere of the channel. All moving parts of the drive system are protected by removable enclosure panels. The screen enclosure above the channel are equipped with removable panels to provide safe operation and reduce odor.
