Intake screens are mounted at the end of the intake pipe, at about 1 to 2 m below sea level.

The screen is backwashed with air to prevent solids to clog the screen surface

Beach well

Beach wells are recommended when seawater quality can vary over the season and/or when high turbidity peaks can occur.

One vertical beachwell can draw up to 200 m3/h.

A radial well can take up to 1000 m3/hour, depending on the soil layers.
