Benefits

  • Rapid First-Flush Recovery

    Multiple rake assemblies and UL-approved, multiple-speed controls provide rapid screenings removal during sudden periods of heavy debris loading. Quickly clearing accumulated material helps the system recover from first-flush conditions and return to normal operation.

  • High-Capacity Debris Removal

    Continuous operation allows the VMR to remove large screenings volumes without interrupting the cleaning cycle. Large-capacity rake heads and heavy-duty chains support efficient debris removal in demanding, high-throughput applications.

  • Maintains Hydraulic Capacity

    Frequent rake cycles remove accumulated screenings before they can severely blind the bar rack. Keeping the screening area clear helps maintain flow through the channel during high-loading conditions.

  • Long Equipment Life

    Heavy-duty components and proven features from the Mensch Severe Duty™ Bar Screen provide the strength required for demanding environments. The rigid stainless steel frame, durable chains, and robust rake assemblies support a long, productive service life.

  • Reliable Bar-Rack Cleaning

    The automatic, self-cleaning design provides consistent bar-rack cleaning during primary and secondary screening. Multiple rake assemblies maintain continuous debris removal, including in applications prone to severe screen blinding.

  • Cost-Effective, High-Capacity Screening

    Fully automatic operation and multiple-speed controls match screen performance to changing conditions while reducing the need for manual intervention. The VMR combines high-capacity debris removal, continuous operation, and long-lasting components in one dependable screening system.

VMR: Built to Withstand

The VMR Multi-Rake Screen is a high-capacity, continuous-duty mechanical bar screen built to remove large volumes of debris quickly and efficiently. It supports primary and secondary screening in high-flow raw water, surface water, stormwater, and wastewater applications. Multiple rake assemblies maintain continuous screening during heavy debris loading and severe screen-blinding conditions. Large-capacity rake heads, heavy-duty chains, and a rigid stainless steel frame provide dependable performance and long service life. UL-approved, fully automatic, multiple-speed controls allow the system to respond efficiently to changing operating conditions. Custom designed for each installation, the VMR is well suited for extreme channel depths and other challenging high-throughput applications.
