Screening & headworks

Manual bar screens in Pakistan

Fixed bars intercept large solids at the inlet channel for removal by hand raking.

Request equipment selection Preliminary treatment

Where this equipment fits

Small STPs, standby channels and coarse pump protection.

For housing STPs in Lahore and mixed industrial drains, assess the actual rag, plastic and fibre load. Where stormwater can enter the sewer, check the peak hydraulic condition and a safe maintenance bypass. Specify how screenings will be washed, collected and removed from the site.

How to select manual bar screens

Use these inputs to define the equipment duty before comparing proposals.

  • 01Bar spacing and rake angle
  • 02Peak flow and allowable headloss
  • 03Safe platform and waste collection

What to check before choosing

Cleaning must match the incoming waste load. An unattended blocked screen can raise upstream water levels.

What affects the price in Pakistan?

The quoted price depends on bar spacing and rake angle, materials, controls and the agreed supply scope. For a useful comparison, identify freight, taxes, installation, commissioning and initial spares as separate proposal items where applicable.

For replacement equipment, share the existing nameplate, photographs and connection dimensions. For a new installation, share the design flow or loading, site location and available space. Final availability, delivery and performance terms are confirmed with the selected equipment.

Integration with your treatment plant

Peak flow and upstream / downstream channel levels. Required opening and downstream protection duty. Screenings handling, access and standby arrangements. These interfaces should be checked alongside the individual equipment specification.
