Brackett Green® Static Screen
Simple. Reliable. Protective.
The Brackett Green® Static Screen is a non-mechanical, cost-effective screening solution designed to protect your downstream equipment by capturing debris in water intake systems.
Ideal for power, chemical, petroleum, and water treatment facilities, this simple yet robust screen can be customized to meet a wide range of site-specific requirements.
Whether upgrading an existing plant or designing a new one, the Brackett Green Static Screen provides a reliable first line of defense.
THE PROBLEM
Debris in water intake systems can damage downstream equipment, reduce efficiency, and increase maintenance costs. Mechanical screens, while effective, often require complex systems, higher capital investment, and ongoing maintenance.
THE OVIVO SOLUTION
The Brackett Green Static Screen provides a simple, passive screening method that effectively removes debris without moving parts. Its design allows for easy integration into new or existing systems, offering a low-cost, low-maintenance alternative to mechanical screens. Plus, mesh sizes and frame materials can be customized to meet your site-specific needs.
HOW IT WORKS
Static screens are installed in series within the water flow path. As water passes through the framed wire mesh, debris is captured and prevented from entering downstream systems. A debris pan collects loose material as the screen is raised for cleaning. A second screen can be lowered into place to maintain continuous operation during maintenance.
APPLICATIONS
- Power plants (nuclear, hydro, and thermal)
- Chemical processing facilities
- Petroleum refineries
- Cooling tower basins
- Municipal drinking water and wastewater treatment plants
- Land drainage systems
Our ProPaPanel® Technology
The patented ProPaPanel® sets a new standard in screening technology with a design that delivers unmatched durability, efficiency, and long-term performance in wastewater environments.
Engineered for Superior Screening Performance
- Tapered Round Holes
Designed for performance, our tapered round holes dramatically improve cleaning efficiency, reduce clogging, and eliminate hair pinning. They also enhance cleaning under wash water, ensuring consistent operation. - Unmatched Capture Efficiency
Unlike traditional slots, the round holes increase capture rates by approximately 225%, making the ProPaPanel one of the most effective screening solutions available. - Hair Capture without Shearing
Unlike perforated plates with sharp edges that shear hair and allow it to pass downstream, the ProPaPanel gently captures hair and fibrous materials, preserving system integrity and reducing downstream load. - Optimized Thickness (9mm)
The 9mm panel thickness virtually eliminates carpeting and stapling—common issues in many screening systems. - Built to Last
Made from a high-strength, impact-resistant co-polymer, the ProPaPanel is corrosion-proof and built to withstand harsh wastewater environments. Panels in operation for over 20 years look almost as clean as the day they were installed. - Flexible and Customizable
The ProPaPanel can be thermoformed and segment-welded to meet your exact sizing and shaping requirements. - Patented and Proven
Our patented design ensures long-lasting performance and reliability, reducing maintenance costs and extending service life.
