A fluid intake including first and second ducts and a particle separation spinner defining an interface between the first and second ducts is disclosed. Spinner includes flow passages passing from first duct side of the spinner to second duct side of the spinner and splitter bodies separating the flow passages. Flow passages and splitter bodies are arranged in thread-like screw manner about spinner. In use, the spinner is spun about an axis of rotation, axis and direction of rotation being such that, from static frame of reference with respect to first duct, splitter bodies and flow passages have a component of movement towards a main travel direction of a fluid flow incident towards spinner from first duct. Splitter bodies are arranged such that they oblige fluid in the fluid flow to follow a convoluted path if it is to pass from first duct to second duct via the flow passages.
