Description

DrainSAFE™ Stormwater Isolation and Pollution Prevention Device is a straightforward and cost-effective device designed for stormwater isolation and pollution prevention, offering a practical means of safeguarding your stormwater drainage system. Once installed within a stormwater drain pit, DrainSAFE™ serves as a reliable barrier, preventing spills and gross pollutants from entering the stormwater network. It is an ideal choice for ensuring compliance with environmental regulations and responding effectively to spills.

 

Key Features

  1. Efficient Design:
    • Installation: Retrofits inside a drain pit, fully beneath the drain grate.
    • Operation: In the OPEN position, it traps pollutants, sediment, and debris with its diffuser and weir. In the CLOSED position, the isolation valve seals the drain, blocking contaminants—ideal for emergency response.
  2. Cost-Effective:
    • Investment: Low initial cost with minimal running expenses.
    • Maintenance: Regular inspections and cleaning maintain optimal flow rates and ensure long-term compliance.
  3. Proven Reliability:
    • Track Record: Widely used across Australia for spill control and pollution prevention, demonstrating reliability and a long lifespan.

 

Common Applications

  • Environmental Compliance: Ensures spills and pollutants don’t enter the stormwater system, meeting regulations.
  • Stormwater Management: Prevents contaminants from infiltrating stormwater drains.
  • Pollution Prevention: Blocks contaminants, protecting water quality.
  • Spill Control: Stops spills from entering the stormwater system, aiding in containment and cleanup.

FAQs

How does DrainSAFE™ help protect a site from stormwater pollution?

DrainSAFE™ provides continuous pollution control during normal drainage and rapid isolation during a spill emergency. In the open position, it captures sediment, debris and hydrocarbons while allowing stormwater to flow. In the closed position, the isolation valve stops contaminants from entering the stormwater network.

Can DrainSAFE™ be retrofitted into an existing stormwater drain pit?

Yes. DrainSAFE™ is designed to fit inside suitable existing stormwater pits and remain beneath the drain grate. Site dimensions should be checked before installation to confirm compatibility with the pit and available depth.

What flow rate and capacity does DrainSAFE™ provide?

DrainSAFE™ has a rated flow rate of 33 L/s and an 80 L internal capacity. The barrel depth is 556 mm, with a diameter of approximately 625 mm including the top lip.

How is DrainSAFE™ used during a spill emergency?

During a spill, the manual isolation valve can be closed to stop liquid from entering the stormwater system. This helps contain the spill on site and provides time for clean-up and recovery before the drain is reopened.

What maintenance does DrainSAFE™ require?

DrainSAFE™ should be regularly inspected, cleaned and serviced to remove accumulated sediment, debris and captured hydrocarbons. Maintenance frequency depends on site conditions, pollutant loading and operational risk.
