Operational Geography:  Screens operating in 47 countries, in every imaginable environmental condition: salt water, brackish water, fresh water; from tropical to icy environments.

Drum Screen Applications: Intake screening for power plants and industrial facilities using once through cooling.

Description: Beaudrey drum screens are typically installed in cooling water intake structures behind bar screens but in  front of the circulating water pumps.  Drums screens are the "work horses" of any cooling water circuit as they remove process water debris before the circulating water is distributed to plant components. Beaudrey drums screens utilize our patented NoCling screen baskets, self-cleaning spray nozzles, and seize proof split-line bearings .
