Due to the presence of sewage related debris it is possible for the standard version of the ALPHEUS Flow Limiter to suffer from blockages. These can be overcome by operating personnel using a manual pulling device. However, several hours or even days can pass between the blockage occurring and its detection removal, as tank checks are mostly carried out at set intervals. For this reason, BIOGEST has developed the ALPHEUS automatic. The flow regulation of the ALPHEUS Automatic Type is identical to that of the ALPHEUS Standard Type. However in addition to the manual pulling device, the Automatic Type has a system, which automatically detects and removes a blockage. This TYPE should be given preference, particularly in combined water systems and for low pass forward flow rates (less than 10 l/s).

Throttle penstocks have the task of restricting the pass forward flow during storm conditions and are used to limit the flow from storm water retention tanks, sewers, retention tanks or overflow chambers to a preset value. The max. flow rate is obtained when having the maximum water head.
