Fence Booms
Cowens fence booms – 250mm, 480mm, 700mm fence booms in PVC or PU. Ideal for containing oil spills in sheltered waters. Immediate deployment; no tools or inflators needed; can be joined easily. Silt screens for civil works in or near watercourses. Air filled booms for choppy waters. Shoreline booms for intertidal deployment. Solid pod booms for heavy duty permanent protection.
Ideal for emergency response use in canals, streams, rivers and lagoons. The light weight of the River Phoenix containment boom allows for easy transportation, deployment and recovery. The boom length is simply extended with an innovative boom to boom connecting system that requires no tools.
This lightweight, highly portable boom is the obvious choice for holding on site at all times along with Oilsorb-Ultra absorbents. The first-aid for oil spills, they could well prevent an accident becoming a disaster. Extremely popular with the Water Authorities and Environment Agencies, the River Phoenix 250 protects inland and industrial waterways reliably and cost effectively.
EQUIPMENT
Segmented boom manufactured from high frequency welded 750 g/m2 PVC coated nylon fabric giving durable and excellent high wear and abrasion resistance. Foam buoyancy by sealed closed cell foam panels giving immediate readiness for use. Ballast is provided by galvanised chain. Joining booms is achieved using plastic cleats, which require no tools or detached fixings and cannot corrode. This produces a very stable, self righting boom which zigzags neatly for storing.

EQUIPMENT
A segmented solid buoyancy boom manufactured in hard wearing 1080 g/m2 PU alloy coated fabric giving durable abrasion resistance. Buoyancy is provided by enclosed cross link closed cell foam which means that the boom will remain buoyant even if the coating is punctured. An enclosed galvanised chain provides ballast. Stiffening rods ensure the boom lies vertically in the water, and recovers quickly if subjected to gusts in exposed conditions. A range of end connectors are available for joining booms together.
