Why this product
Engineered for working sites.
Floating intake screens are self-contained and self-buoyant — replacing fixed-structure intakes that need special design to avoid damage when water levels drop.
- Enables floating intakes instead of fixed structures
- Fixed intakes need special design to avoid damage if levels drop
- Fixed assemblies are harder to install
- Fixed pontoons need leg supports during ground assembly
- Floating intake screens are self-contained and self-buoyant
Designs are CFD-validated for airflow and intake behaviour. Standard 1.9 × 1.9 × 1.5 m and Shallow Sucker 2.2 × 2.3 m configurations available.
