StormFilter Configurations: <br /> Contech offers the StormFilter in multiple configurations: precast, high flow, catch basin, <br /> curb inlet, linear, volume, corrugated metal pipe, drywell, and CON/Span form. Most <br /> configurations use pre-manufactured units to ease the design and installation process. <br /> Systems may be either uncovered or covered underground units. <br /> The typical precast StormFilter unit is composed of three sections: the energy dissipater, <br /> the filtration bay, and the outlet sump. As Stormwater enters the inlet of the StormFilter <br /> vault through the inlet pipe, piping directs stormwater through the energy dissipater into <br /> the filtration bay where treatment will take place. Once in the filtration bay, the <br /> stormwater ponds and percolates horizontally through the media contained in the <br /> StormFilter cartridges. After passing through the media, the treated water in each <br /> cartridge collects in the cartridge's center tube from where piping directs it into the outlet <br /> sump by a High Flow Conduit under-drain manifold. The treated water in the outlet <br /> sump discharges through the single outlet pipe to a collection pipe or to an open channel <br /> drainage way. In some applications where you anticipate heavy grit loads, pretreatment <br /> by settling may be necessary. <br /> CONTECH-StormFilter®GULD Maintenance Update(November 2012) Page 18 <br />
