Traveling Water Screens Brochure

Power plants must filter the water drawn from rivers or other natural sources for use in their cooling tower systems.  Traveling Water Screens are mechanical filter systems that block and collect large debris. These systems prevent damage to pumps and other sensitive equipment. CET Traveling Water Screens mechanically collect and convey debris out of intake water.  The debris is typically collected in a hopper or waste pile.  A variety of alloys and materials are used to maximize screen longevity and performance.
