Removal of sediments by flushing
The HydroGuard Mini flushing shield can be used for eliminating sediment in long and medium size sewer sections (DN600 – DN2000).
The load by pollutants through stormwater discharge can be reduced by its use, and at the same time, it ensures a more consistent load to the wastewater treatment plant. Also, the lifespan of sewers is increased, the odours are eliminated, and costly mobile mode of sewer cleaning is avoided. The flushing is kept constant even during dry weather, in this way it prevents the settling of silt in a proactive manner. The cleaning is accomplished by the energy of the sudden water level drop of water impounded behind the flushing shield (extraction wave).
The frequency of flushing and quantity of flushing water can be adjusted at the equipment. A number of HydroGuard Mini equipment may be used connected in series in very long sewer runs (5-6 km). Upon specific request it is possible to create larger equipment too for sizes exceeding DN2000.

The radially acting HydroSelf flushing flap is suitable for eliminating sediments in circular and small rectangular tanks. The equipment is filled automatically even when the tank is partially full. No external energy source is required because of the float operating system, therefore, no operating costs is encountered.
The equipment is characterised by long operating life and high cleaning efficiency even in case of large sediment.
The equipment may be produced from stainless steel (1.4301) or acid resistant steel (1.4571, as required. The installation is simple, quick, and can be made as retrofitting. The equipment has a reliable operation and it can be retrofitted to existing facilities.
