PKS® storm water tanks made in PE/PP
Cost-effective. Low maintenance. Durable.
PKS storm water retention systems can be used flexibly
PKS® storm water tanks are designed for flexible use: thanks to their modular design, they can be easily customised for a wide range of purposes.
Apart from the temporary storage of storm water,
the tanks can for instance be used for the retention
of process water and leachate from landfills, or the
provision of service and extinguishing water.
PKS® storm water tanks are made from environment-friendly PE and PP materials and meet the
static strength requirements of the ATV-DVWK-A 127
standard. They come with a bright inner layer for
easy maintenance and are available up to DN 3500
with welded or plug fit connections. All modules are
also available as double-wall elements conforming
to DWA-A 142 with integrated leak detection.
Functional principle of storm water storage
In order to protect the sewerage system from excess water during heavy rain, the water flow into the system must be controlled. Storm water storage tanks protect the sewerage system, as the water is collected separately, stored for a period of time and released into the sewerage system at a controlled low rate.
The PKS® storm water retention systems consist of three modules: inlet, storage tank and outlet. The individual modules can be adjusted to suit the actual requirements and freely combined as needed. We supply both individual modules as well as turn-key storm water tanks.
Inlet structures
The water is fed through the inlet structure to the reservoir. If required, the inlet structure can be used as a relief or emergency overflow.
Reservoir
The reservoir acts as a temporary storage tank for storm water. As our reservoirs come in a variety of sizes (up to DN 3500) and shapes, they fit any local site conditions and capacity requirements.
Outlet structures
The storm water retained in the tank is
released through the outlet structure into
the sewerage system. In order to prevent
any overload, the release is controlled by
a throttle, a valve or a suitably small outlet pipe diameter.
