A ‘Quick Release’ guide rail system for horizontally mounted intake screens and filters.

Our quick release guide rail system has been designed to support larger Rotorflush intake screens and eel screens when mounted for horizontally. Rotorflush intake screens need regular maintenance - annually if water conditions are good, 6 monthly if water conditions are challenging. Maintenance is straight forward - a visual inspection to ensure the mesh is not damaged and a pressure wash to remove any accumulated scale or biofilm. Maintenance requires lifting the screens from the water source.

The quick release system allows the screen to be disconnected from pipework and lifted simultaneously. An adaption to the flanged outlet ensures ease of connection and disconnection with your pipework as the screen is raised.

Even large self-cleaning intake screens move easily on the quick release guide rail system

The system works with our standard guide rails, which are designed for installing on a flat vertical surface such as a dock wall or pontoon edge. The standard design is modular so that our guide rails can be offered in 1 metre sections. The screens when horizontally mounted fit securely to the rails and rest firmly in place for use.

The system is secure, robust and easy to use. Screen flange sizes can be fitted to match your pipework, and our quick release system rails can be made to suit all sizes of Rotorflush self-cleaning intake screens.

Our guide rail systems have been designed to support Rotorflush Filterpumps and screens and allow their easy removal from water. They are designed for installing on a flat vertical surface such as a dock wall, pontoon edge or large wet well.

The standard design is modular so that our guide rails can be offered in 1 metre sections. The filters and filterpumps fit securely to a platform that moves up and down. Ideal for filterpumps and vertically mounted screens and filters.

The lifting platform holds the Rotorflush in place with sufficient clearance to ensure optimum performance when in use, and ease of access. The screen or filterpump rests on a plate designed to hold the base of the Rotorflush in place. These rails can be made to suit all sizes of Rotorflush filter pumps and self-cleaning intake screens.

The easiest way to install our products.

Our stands are designed to hold your Rotorflush above any silt or debris build up.

Suitable for flat bottom surfaces such as sumps and level riverbeds.

Installation of Screens Made Easy Using Our Quick Release Guide Rail System

Watch as one of our RF800LW Eel Screens is lowered down to its guide rail to the operating position. This Guide Rail features a quick-release coupling, removing the need to bolt the filter to the delivery pipework. The guide rail ensures the filter stays in position and is easily removed for maintenance.
