The Much Wenlock Flood Alleviation Scheme in Shropshire, UK, has won the 2018 Sustainability award at Flood & Coast's annual…
Our new online tool makes it easy for engineers to design and specify customized flow control valves for US LID and flood protection projects.
We have launched a new iteration of the Hydro-Brake® Optimum online design tool to help US engineers to design and specify flow control valves with complete flexibility.
The Hydro-Brake® Optimum vortex flow control valve provides unpowered, self-activating flow control as part of environmentally sustainable flood protection and low-impact development (LID) projects, enabling designers to mimic natural drainage patterns within a built environment, or to slow and store otherwise damaging quantities of stormwater.
As the only vortex flow control valve in which the head/discharge relationship can be precision engineered to fine tune the hydraulic design curve, the Hydro-Brake® Optimum is infinitely flexible, and our online design tool enables engineers to tailor performance to meet site-specific flow control requirements to:
The online tool provides fully integrated and free-to-use support for designers and specifiers working on surface water, foul and combined sewers or network flow control applications, and provides the capability to validate and output detailed design drawings.
