Compact Static Screen For Open Channel Installation Space Saving Design For Small Treatment Plants Static Screen

Description

Static Screen – Product Description

Product Overview

The DAGYEE Compact Static Screen is designed specifically for easy drop-in installation into existing open channels, flumes, and concrete basins. Its space-saving design requires minimal civil work and no electrical connections, making it the ideal solution for retrofit projects, small treatment plants, lift stations, and remote locations where space is limited and reliability is critical.

Unlike traditional bar screens that require complex mechanical drives, motors, and control panels, the compact static screen simply sits in the channel. No bolts. No brackets. No concrete work for most installations. Just lower it into place, start the flow, and solids removal begins immediately.

Working Principle

The static screen operates on a simple gravity-based principle with no moving components. Here's how it works:

Uniform Water Distribution – Wastewater enters the screen box and flows over a weir, evenly distributing across the full width of the inclined wedge wire screen.

Solid-Liquid Separation – As water passes through the screen, liquid flows through the narrow gaps between the wedge wires. Suspended solids larger than the slot opening are captured on the screen surface.

Automatic Solids Discharge – Captured solids slide down the inclined screen surface under the force of gravity and the hydraulic push of incoming flow. They discharge continuously from the lower end of the screen without needing a scraper or mechanical conveyor.

Clean Filtrate Collection – The filtered liquid (filtrate) collects in a hopper or trough beneath the screen and flows to the next stage of treatment.

Slot openings are typically available from 0.25mm to 3.0mm, depending on the application and required removal efficiency.

Table 1: 5-Year Total Cost Breakdown

See that? The purchase price is only one-third. The other two-thirds come after you buy the machine.
So the real way to save money isn't just beating down the upfront price. It's reducing the other two-thirds too.
Let me give you an example:
Machine A costs $3,000 upfront, but needs $700 in maintenance every year. Over 5 years, total cost is $6,500.
Machine B costs $4,000 upfront, but only needs $150 in maintenance every year. Over 5 years, total cost is $4,750.

The more expensive one actually saves you money. That's why you need to look at the big picture.

Key Features

Advantages

1. No Energy Costs
Because the static screen has no moving parts and operates by gravity, it consumes zero electricity. For facilities running 24/7, this represents significant annual savings compared to mechanical screens.

2. Virtually Maintenance-Free
With no motors, bearings, or chains to maintain, the static screen requires only periodic visual inspection and occasional cleaning. No lubrication, no belt replacement, no gearbox oil changes.

3. Reliable 24/7 Operation
There are no mechanical components to break down. As long as water flows, the static screen keeps working. This makes it ideal for unattended or remote installations.

4. Self-Cleaning Screen Design
The wedge wire profile creates a continuous shearing action that helps dislodge trapped particles. This self-cleaning effect reduces blinding and maintains consistent hydraulic capacity.

5. Low Installation Cost
With no electrical connections, no control panels, and no moving parts, installation is simple and inexpensive. The unit can be placed over an open channel or flume with minimal civil work.

6. Environmentally Friendly
Zero energy consumption and no chemical additives make the static screen a green technology for solids removal.

7. Handles High Solids Loading
Static screens are particularly effective for applications with high concentrations of fibrous solids — such as paper mill effluent, slaughterhouse wastewater, or textile processing.

Technical Specifications

Applications

The static screen is suitable for a wide range of industries and applications:

How to Size a Static Screen

To select the right static screen for your application, you will need:

1.Flow Rate – Peak and average flow (m³/h or GPM)
2.Solids Loading – Concentration and type of solids (fibrous, granular, etc.)
3.Slot Opening – Based on particle size you need to remove
4.Available Head – Height difference between inlet water level and discharge point
5.Channel Width – If installing in an existing channel

Contact DAGYEE with your site parameters, and we will recommend the optimal screen size and configuration.
