The SPI®‘s PETRO-PIT® 416-FR3 is a cartridge for filtering rainwater contaminated with natural esters, for small and medium-sized transformer retention tanks and pits. Its self-locking system traps harmful particles, preventing soil pollution. Its oleophilic and hydrophobic polymer component permanently traps natural esters.
Description
PETRO-PIT-416-FR3 is a cartridge specially invented by SPI® in the 1990s for easy adaptation to all types of retention tanks and pits. It ensures continuous filtration of drainage water, while trapping natural esters: it thus prevents any soil pollution in compliance with standard EN 858-1 and the Water Act, with a discharge rate of less than 5ppm. It also complies with paragraph 471 of NF C13-200 (“All precautions must be taken to ensure that the recovery tank does not fill with water or that water is evacuated“). Our filters are regularly tested in independent laboratories, when new, in half-life conditions and after their recommended period of use (see Additional Information tab).
In the event of a major spill of natural esters, the component reacts and forms a plug, preventing any fluid from being released into the environment. It’s a self-locking system, with no mechanical parts or electrical connections.
