Airburst Systems for Water Intake Screens
Custom Designs to Meet Your Needs
Our Airburst cleaning system assures trouble-free, uninterrupted operation in high-debris environments or where inadequate water currents cause a buildup of sediment and organic matter on the intake screen that gradually restricts water flow. The Airburst system effectively removes the debris through a rapid release of high-pressure air.
At Hendrick Screen, the latest technology is built into our control panels so that it can be fully customized to your needs--including how often the system releases air, different types of alarm systems and overrides between automatic and manual settings.
Get assurance, reliability, and adaptability from Hendrick, including:
UL 508A Certified - Hendrick's control panels are designed to offer trouble-free, uninterrupted water intake operations. All panels that Hendrick sells are certified to UL 508A, the Standard for Industrial Control Panels. This offers a high degree of confidence that our controls are both reliable and safe.
PLC Communications - We provide different options to communicate such as dry contacts, messaging blocks and ethernet.
Timed Programming Option - Panels can be designed with a programmed internal timer adjustable to hourly, daily, or weekly.
Cost Saving Programming Software - Hendrick incorporates a third-party programmable logic controller (PLC) system which provides total management of the control panel operations to the customer. The software is easy to configure and is a free download which eliminates costs for programming and future changes. Want a specific type of controller? We can build other systems into the design, per your specifications.
