0111 Vortex Flow Control UFT-FluidVortex
Intended Pupose
In urban drainage systems, vortex throttles limit the discharge from CSOs, CSO tanks, stormwater retention basins and flood prevention basins. Due to the large open cross-sections and very effective secondary flow effects, the vortex throttle is blockage resistant. The device can therefore be used to advantage to reduce difficult-to-handle effluents loaded with solids, such as in combined and separate sewage systems or in sediment-laden waters from mining quarries, gravel works or other industry.
Properties of the Vortex Flow Control UFT-FluidVortex
- high hydraulic resistance combined with large open cross-sections; therefore unaffected by blockages
- adjustment possible for different flow rates by simple exchange of an orifice plate – retrofitting also possible
- no moving parts
- no wear, high abrasion resistance
- no external energy required
- high operational safety
- corrosion-free construction
- quick assembly, no adjustment required
- oxygen injection by the discharge jet
- compact design, ideal for use in confined spaces
