TAURUS: Salher’s rotary screen in AISI 316 stainless steel with the best quality-price ratio
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) receive water loaded with residues that can clog pipelines, damage electromechanical equipment, and reduce the efficiency of biological treatments. TAURUS, Salher’s high-capacity rotary screen, is an efficient pretreatment solution ideal for removing suspended solids, protecting equipment, and optimizing purification processes.
In the water treatment sector, equipment made of AISI 316 stainless steel is often costly due to its high corrosion resistance and durability. However, at Salher, we have developed TAURUS, a high-capacity rotary screen that is robust, efficient, and accessible, offering top-tier performance at a highly competitive price.
This unit has been intelligently designed to handle large flow rates relative to its size, allowing for space optimization without compromising performance. Its structure includes an elevated support, facilitating the installation of a solid waste collection container, which improves waste management and streamlines maintenance.
TAURUS comes standard with a protective cover for the filtering drum, ensuring greater safety and extending the equipment’s lifespan by preventing the entry of external elements. Additionally, it features advanced safety mechanisms, including a mushroom-type emergency stop button and a shutdown switch activated upon opening, reinforcing operational safety at all times.
To further simplify maintenance, the equipment includes a full drainage outlet with a ball valve, enabling quick and easy system drainage. Another significant advantage is its lightweight design, making it up to three times lighter than conventional steel equipment, which simplifies both installation and transportation.
Quality and Efficiency in Water Pretreatment
Designed for high flow rates, the TAURUS rotary screen stands out for its high solid separation capacity, making it an ideal choice for urban and industrial wastewater treatment plants, as well as for protecting drinking water and water reuse systems.
This equipment includes a dual cleaning system to ensure efficient operation and minimize maintenance tasks. Additionally, it features a stainless steel base that facilitates movement within the installation.
Thanks to its GRP and AISI 316 stainless steel construction, TAURUS guarantees:
✔ Maximum corrosion resistance, even in aggressive environments.
✔ Greater durability and lower maintenance compared to other materials.
✔ Efficient solid separation, with mesh sizes ranging from 0.25 mm to 3 mm.
✔ A highly competitive price, below the usual cost of similar AISI 316 equipment.
How Essential Are Pretreatment Systems in a WWTP?
Screening systems, grit separators, static degreasers, and automatic grease chambers are pretreatment solutions that protect electromechanical equipment in water treatment lines. Salher designs and manufactures these solutions to meet the specific needs of each project.
