What is a vortex flow control?
A vortex flow control is a self-activating device that helps to control the rate at which water is allowed to enter downstream drainage systems.
Vortex flow controls use hydraulic effect without the need for moving parts or power to control the flow of stormwater.
Vortex Flow Controls have unique geometry designed to harness the energy of vortex flow to optimize flow control to allow for higher discharge rates at lower heads, which can lead to a smaller attenuation tank requirement.
WASP vortex flow control chambers are bespoke prefabricated, watertight, structured wall chambers, manufactured to suit project-specific requirements. They are supplied with a pre-fitted vortex flow control device or hydro-brake devices from various manufacturers can be incorporated.
WASP chambers provide significant health and safety benefits over traditional methods for during handling and installation, due to their strong, lightweight construction and integral lifting points and quick installation. In addition, off-site fabrication ensures uncompromised, high quality products being delivered to site ready-to-install, reducing installation time and costs.
