RC Rack Protection
Hydropower plants require effective systems to protect intake racks from floating debris such as branches, logs, and algae, which can cause blockages and increase maintenance costs. River Cleaning addresses this challenge with an advanced technology: RC Rack Protection, a floating steel deflector designed to provide continuous protection, reduce operational costs, and improve plant sustainability. The patented and tested system can drastically reduce annual maintenance and waste disposal costs (with indicative reductions of up to 95%), while improving operational continuity and protecting the river ecosystem.
Smart protection for hydropower plants
River Cleaning Rack Protection is a floating steel deflector designed to protect hydropower plant intake racks from branches, logs, and algae. Installed upstream of the screening system, it uses the natural water flow to laterally divert debris, preventing blockages and significantly reducing maintenance operations.
The system can also be integrated with RC Selector, the River Cleaning technology developed for the selective interception of polluting materials, enabling even more efficient and targeted debris management.
Key Advantages
- Strong and easy-to-install structure
- No interference with the natural water flow
- Reduced blockages and improved operational continuity
- Configurable according to site-specific requirements
- Integrable with RC Selector for more efficient management of intercepted materials
