Jacopa® High Solids Spiral Screen

The Jacopa High Solids Loading Spiral screening equipment is used for the removal of fine solids with a significant solids loading. The screen utilises a U Trough and a discharge section of considerable size. A greatly reinforced shaftless spiral elevates the collected screenings up & out of the effluent flow. This screen is generally used for treating flows of up to 275 l/s with a 6mm 2D filter basket.

Mesh sizes from 3mm to 10mm are available. The spiral screens can be installed at inclined angles of either 35° or 45° to suit individual applications or where channel lengths are restricted. The Jacopa SSH spiral screen can be installed directly into new or existing channels ranging from 500mm to 1000mm wide. The screens incorporate a low speed of rotation typically 18 rpm, with either a 1.5kW or 3.0kW drive assembly. The screens transportation section is variable to suit either low level or deep channel designs. Once screenings have been removed from the flow and discharged from the screen, the debris can either be compacted or transported to a suitable container (Skip).

OPTIONAL EXTRAS include • Loading basket side extensions • Loading basket washing facility • Transportation section washing facility • Insulation of transportation section • Variable speed motor • Longopac bagging system • Transportation section extended/shortened

The design of the SSH High Solids screen is based on the Jacopa spiral screen technology, which whentested at the National Screens Evaluation Facility (November 2008) at Chester-Le-Street achieved the highest screening capture ratio (SCR) of any spiral screen of its type, achieving a SCR of 54%

Key Features & Benefits:

• Heavy-duty shaftless spiral of high tensile carbon steel (also available in stainless steel)
• High percentage of solids removal
• Strong nylon brushes on spiral’s leading edge ensure effective mesh cleaning
• No underwater bearings
