Passive Intakes

Passive intake screens for water withdrawal.

Johnson Screens passive intake screens provide uninterrupted water withdrawal from rivers, lakes, and oceans. The combination of our non-plugging Vee-Wire® design and our patented internal flow modifiers provide a high open area while maintaining the lowest entrance velocity and pressure drop on the market. Our passive intake screens have no submerged moving parts that break down, and incorporate the use of the Hydroburst™ air backwash cleaning system for easy maintenance.
