A Coanda effect inlet screen is a passive, self-cleaning filtration system installed at the head of a water intake structure. It uses the Coanda effect phenomenon, where a fluid flow tends to follow a curved surface to naturally direct water across a curved wedge wire screen . This design allows water to pass through while debris, sediment, and aquatic life are excluded and swept away by gravity. The screen’s wedge wire or Vee wire profile , made of stainless steel, is precisely engineered to provide a continuous slot opening. These openings offer exceptional strength and maximize open area while resisting clogging and wear. Key Features and Benefits of Wedge Wire Coanda Effect Inlet Screens 1. Self-Cleaning Performance The Coanda effect screen cleans itself naturally as water flows over it. Leaves, sticks, sediment, and organic matter are washed away by the sheer force of water and gravity, eliminating the need for backflushing or manual cleaning. 2. Low Maintenance and Long Servic...
