To guarantee retention of rainwater, a delayed drain is fitted in the channel with 0.05 to 2.0 l/sec. depending on the customer’s specifications. In the event of heavy rainfall, the water level in the cistern rises above this level and is drained into the channel at delayed speed using a floating drain choke. This relieves the channel and the treatment works.
The water level can rise to the emergency overflow and sinks slowly back down again after the rain to the long-term max. water level.
We also construct and supply individual, special solutions.
Sizes between 2,500 – 100,000 l with corresponding retention volumes are possible.
