Purpose Built Flow Controls
Developed specifically for use in drainage systems, our individually designed vortex flow controls offer an effective solution to your storm water management problems. Each unit is configured to suit the site and to fit easily into the drainage infrastructure. Our vortex flow controls are currently in use throughout the U.K.
Versatile, Reliable, Cost-effective
Vortex flow controls do not rely on external power supplies or moving parts. An internal vortex, generated by the incoming water, controls the through flow. The unique flow characteristic of the flow control ensures optimum use of upstream storage while the large cross sectional areas greatly reduce the risk of blockage.
Design
Each Vortex Flow Control is individually designed to deliver optimum performance and to ensure ease of installation. Our technical staff will be pleased to discuss your requirements and to specify a suitable flow control unit. Full performance and installation details are provided for each unit specified.
What Design Information Do We Need?
We require the following basic information to specify a Vortex Flow Control for you.
- The design Flow – Maximum Discharge
- The design Head – Invert to Top Water Level
- Type of drainage – Surface or Foul
From this information we will size and design the Vortex Flow Control to meet the design criteria and to suit the proposed infrastructure.
Specification
Our Specification will include:
- Data Sheet showing the Head/Discharge Characteristic, both graphically and numerically.
- Installation Guide showing the outline dimensions of the specified Vortex Flow Control and the method of fixing.
- Quotation covering the design manufacture and delivery of the specified unit(s) complete with fixings.
From this information we will size and design the Vortex Flow Control to meet the design criteria and to suit the proposed infrastructure.
