MS™ Series Bar Screen

Headworks Bar Screen sets the standard for the industry, even in the toughest of applications, including deep channels, high flows, combined sewers, and large debris. As the most experienced multi-rake bar screen manufacturer in the world, we have been manufacturing it for 27 years. With units designed and installed in excess of 10′ (3m) in width, 100′ (35m) in length, and flow capacities greater than 300 mgd (11m3/s) per unit. With over 2,000 installations worldwide, Headworks has the experience and expertise to provide the most robust Bar Screen for your specific application.

The Headworks Bar Screen is front raked, front return, with multiple rake bars mounted to chains located on each side of the self-contained frame. The design eliminates the possibility of solids carryover and can easily be totally enclosed for odor control and improved hygiene.

The three model sizes MS1, MS2 and MS3 offer a model for any channel size and flow condition.

Everything about this project is big, and the resulting impact on the environment is equally big. Naturally, for such a ‘big’ project the screens would have to come from a Texas company.
