PT&P custom-designed bird screens for a 3″ diameter pipeline at an LNG facility. Bird screens (or insect screens) are used on an open-ended pipe (i.e. exhaust) where birds or insects can be trapped inside the pipe creating a blockage. Birds such as pigeons and other roosting birds often build nests inside exposed piping and their droppings can carry diseases and even pose potential contamination and health hazards. Bird droppings have even been known to cause damage to sensitive equipment such as valves and gauges not to mention creating safety hazards on ladders, steps, and catwalks. It’s best to incorporate bird screens during the design of the refinery, chemical, power, LNG, or green energy plant and install them during construction. Our bird screens are fabricated from corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel and can withstand temperatures up to 800 degrees Fahrenheit. They are designed to be easily assembled in the field without requiring a skilled welder or special equipment. PT&P can provide bird screens for any size piping or configuration.
