Ready For The Storm: Bar Screens That Are At Their Best During Nature's Worst

Duperon has developed a stormwater line of products, including the FlexRake® HD, Harvest Rake, and Self-Cleaning Trashrack (SCT), to address the unique challenges faced in screening stormwater during storms. Bar screens around pump stations, particularly those situated near coasts, rivers, and lakes, must be able to handle unpredictable debris, particularly after long idle periods. Debris such as tree stumps, branches, shopping carts, and vegetation, require a strong and durable bar screen capable of removing debris of any size and shape, even tires and fallen trees. Duperon's stormwater products can handle significant amounts of debris, ranging from 1,000 to 3,000 pounds at a time. Additionally, they are designed to start up right away without advanced preparation, even after weeks or even months of sitting idle. Duperon has incorporated lessons learned from existing installations to minimize maintenance while ensuring the technology can react swiftly when needed, particularly during the initial 20 minutes of peak flow during a storm.
