Clarifier Scraper Bridge
The Omega DCB/RCB Clarifier Scraper Bridge is designed for continuous sludge collection and scum removal in circular primary and secondary clarifiers. Suitable for municipal and industrial wastewater treatment plants, the system improves clarification efficiency while ensuring reliable and fully automated operation.
The rotating scraper mechanism continuously removes settled solids from the tank bottom while simultaneously collecting floating scum from the surface. Available in hot-dip galvanized steel, stainless steel, or aluminum construction, the Omega DCB/RCB provides a durable and low-maintenance clarification solution.

- About Product
Description
OPERATING MODE
The Omega DCB/RCB Clarifier Bridge utilizes a central rotating mechanism that drives scraper arms across the floor of a circular clarifier. Wastewater enters through the center feed column and is evenly distributed throughout the basin.
Bottom scraper blades continuously collect settled solids and transport them toward the central collection pit for removal. The clarified effluent flows radially toward the perimeter overflow weir, maintaining a constant and uniform flow pattern throughout the tank. A dedicated surface skimmer system simultaneously collects floating scum and conveys it toward the scum removal system, ensuring optimal clarification performance.
- Why It Wins
Features & Benefits
Efficient Solids Removal
Continuous scraping of settled sludge prevents solids accumulation and ensures consistent clarifier performance while improving sludge collection efficiency.
Improved Water Quality
The clarifier bridge reduces suspended solids, organic matter, and contaminants from the treated water, improving final effluent quality.
Increased Treatment Capacity
By continuously removing sludge and scum, the Omega DCB/RCB improves clarifier efficiency and increases the effective treatment capacity of sedimentation tanks.
Robust Construction
The support bridge is manufactured in hot-dip galvanized steel as standard and can be supplied in stainless steel or aluminum for demanding applications.
Fully Automated Operation
The rotating scraper mechanism provides continuous sludge and scum removal with minimal operator intervention, reducing operating costs and maintenance requirements.
