Overview

The Sidehill Static Screen is Hydro-Dyne Engineering’s screening solution for low-flow applications in municipal and industrial treatment systems. Solids are offloaded manually with this equipment. With a sloped screen face that requires no offload water, this gravity-fed design delivers dependable solids separation without the need for pumps, motors, or complex controls. Because the unit has no moving parts, maintenance is minimal, occasional manual attention is needed to keep the screen face clean and performing
at its best.

Features:

  • Baffle Plate: Distributes flow evenly across
    the screen.
  • Drip Lip: Captures fluid from slow-moving
    debris as it falls from screen surface.
  • Screen: Removable screen panel for
    maintenance and replacement.
  • Cover: Algae elimination.

Screenings Handling

An effective screenings handling system is a critical component to every water or wastewater treatment plant. Hydro-Dyne’s turn-key screenings handling solutions are manufactured at the highest level of quality and designed to accept, wash, dewater, compact and/or transport collected screenings. In wastewater applications, screening handling systems are particularly important as they are designed to return organic material to the channel and produce clean, dry and inorganic product that can be properly disposed of in either a container or bagging unit.

Screenings Handling Systems At-A-Glance

  • Collect and convey screenings for disposal
  • Returns organics and wash water to channel
  • Screenings meet strict landfill requirements
