CONTAINMENT BOOMS & TURBIDITY CURTAINS

   Features:

• Closed cell foam rolls constructed from expanded polystyrene (EPE)
• Available in 100’ , 50‘, and 25’ (30m, 15m, 7.62m) sections
• 25 oz/yd (850 gsm) high visibility orange PVC with UV resistant coating
• Galvanized 6 mm chain ballast
• ASTM “Z’”connection
• Chemical Resistant to : acids, alkalis, solvents, and hydrocarbons

ASTM Connection:

Junction between each portion of the containment boom is assured by an ASTM connection “Z”. The pin of the connection enables a quick deployment of the boom.The ASTM connection is the standard device for oil spills and permits the boom to benefit from a strong resistance. It has been designed and tested for a marine use in any conditions and any kind of waters. The ASTM connection strengthens the boom to make easily towable.

SCI TYPE I ECONOMY

For use in calm water, short-term use in canals, ponds, lakes, and reservoirs, the SCI Type I Economy turbidity curtain is compact for easy storage, very affordable, and can work with any project budget.

SCI Type I Economy has an impermeable construction and works well to contain the turbidity from your near shore project.

SCI Type I DOT

SCI Type I DOT turbidity curtain is designed specifically to control silt in roadside ditches, canals, small ponds, and lakes. This curtain is specifically manufactured to meet and exceed US Department of Transportation (DOT) and other regulatory requirements for turbidity control in Type I calm conditions. SCI Type I DOT is offered with impermeable and permeable options.

For calm water conditions this Type I barrier makes an excellent choice for silt and sediment control and meets regulatory and inspection requirements.

The components are selected for the budget minded, but do not lack in performance! This barrier is easy-to-use, compact, and economical.

SCI Type I DOT is our most popular calm water curtain.

CI Type II DOT

Designed for mild currents, waves, and wind the SCI Type II DOT is designed for rapid deployment and easy storage and handling. It also meets the needs for most regulated applications. SCI Type II DOT is offered with impermeable and permeable options.

Differing from our SCI Type I DOT, the SCI Type II DOT is equipped with a tension cable under the flotation and aluminum joint connectors with anchor points to anchor the curtain in position.

SCI Type II DOT turbidity curtains are specifically designed for in-water control of silt and turbidity around dredging projects, pile driving for piers, docks, and bridges, rip-rap installation, demolition work, or any other situation where water can become contaminated with sediment. The unique design makes it a contractor’s project favorite for moving water and waves typically found in inter-coastal waterways, estuaries, rivers, and streams.

SCI Type III

Designed for use in tidal zones, rivers, and bays. The SCI Type III turbidity curtain is ready for rapid deployment and is engineered for medium flows. This curtain is permeable to allow for passage of water through the curtain while retaining the silt and sediment.

SCI Type III turbidity curtain's sturdy design ensures great performance while resisting clogging. Different filter fabrics can be used to accommodate the design of the project and the type of sediment present to be controlled.

SCI Type III turbidity curtain meets AASHTO M-288-92 Erosion Class A. A permeable woven geotextile skirt is standard on the SCI Type III turbidity curtain. This curtain is equipped with a top-tension cable under the flotation and aluminum joint connectors with anchor points to anchor the curtain in position.

Other depths are available by request. Custom sizes and configurations are available to meet your project requirements.
