Good profitability starts at the water intake. When leaves, twigs and other material reduce the water flow, valuable power production is lost. An efficient screen cleaner is therefore a natural first step to increasing the power plant's production and financial performance.

 

Enerquip's locos keep the intake gate clean and ensure that more of the available water can be used for power generation. Smoother water flow results in fewer operational outages, less production losses and better utilization of the power plant's capacity.

 

The machine is equipped with an efficient claw that removes waste from the intake gate and lifts it to the desired emptying location. Loke can also be supplied with a swivel function and mounted on monorail or rails. This makes the solution very flexible and easy to adapt to small and medium-sized water intakes, even where space or access is limited.

 

Automatic cleaning reduces the need for manual inspections, cleaning and emergency calls. This results in lower operating costs, frees up time and reduces the burden on operating personnel. For power plants with limited resources, the savings can be significant over the life of the machine.

 

Loke combines a competitive investment with reliable and efficient operation. It can be operated fully automatically or remotely, keeping the intake clean without unnecessary supervision. The machine can also work above the water surface when greater reach is needed.
