KST+

Electrically driven self-cleaning intake screens

The KleenScreen Torque Plus (KST+) Range features an electric drive which increases the cleaning efficiency by dramatically reducing the energy used to rotate the screen during its cleaning phase.
The system utilises a miniature variable speed drive in combination with a submersible gear-motor to increase the power of the drive, thereby increasing the reliability of the screen’s self-cleaning operation.

The standard KSO Range rotate the screen cage by directing a water jet against a series of blades. Although this is effective, there are many cases where the screens are rotating continuously and so this drive jet can use a considerable amount of energy (up to 2 kW on the larger screens).

The electric drive in the KST+ Range achieves the same result and uses just 10-20 watts. Pressurised water is still required to run the wash jets.

Features

  • KleenScreens are designed and manufactured in New Zealand for local and overseas conditions
  • Materials are mainly stainless steel or plastic, which prevents a corrosive situation with dissimilar metals
  • A gasket and bolt bushes may be used to ensure that there is no contact with the intake pipe
  • Durable and relatively light, he stainless steel construction provides a strong and durable screen
  • Standard connection - the KST+ range has AS2129 Table ‘E’ Flanges. Backwash connections are standard BSP male connections.
