Custom-designed baffles have specially
sized and placed windows that control flow and circulation
in wastewater treating ponds, to eliminate dead zones,
increase detention time, and improve treatment efficiency.
- Top tension cable is 5/16-inch stainless-steel aircraft cable sealed in fabric.
- Bottom ballast is 3/8-inch galvanized
chain in sealed bottom pocket.
- End tension plate is double 3/16-inch
x 3-inch stainless-steel plate with 3/8-inch stainless-steel
bolts.
- Flow-through windows have rounded
corners, dielectrically sealed and reinforced with
2-inch webbing. Window size is a minimum of 1 sq
ft per 30 gal/min.
- Baffle connections are double-thick
fabric, dielectrically sealed, with stainless-steel
grommets set in 2-inch-wide webbing.
- Flotation is rolled closed-cell polyfoam
with a minimum of 55 lb/cu ft buoyancy. Polyfoam

ultraviolet radiation and extreme temperatures.
Other fabrics available for special applications.
- Optional furling lines are used to lower and raise the baffle skirt.
