HydroGuard®
Flood management of large culverts and surface water systems
During periods of high rainfall where the risk of flooding becomes a threat to the
surrounding areas the HydroGuard can be installed as an automated flood
barrier restricting and/or preventing the passage of flood waters. This system can also
be utilised on Watercourse situations where culverts require regular flushing or where
water is required to be impoundedupstream for a period of time.
The HydroGuard system is a highly effective flood barrier for large
rectangular or circular storm water culvert systems. The HydroGuard can
swivel into pre-determined positions within the storm water section activated via a local
plc control, programmed for the desired actions.
Advantages and Benefits
- Provides an automated flood defense barrier with PLC controls enabling flexible automated operation
- Prevents sediment deposition within culvert and shock loading to the receiving water course due to ‘first flush’
- Suitable for retrofit
- Reference sites throughout UK and Europe
- HydroGuard may be used to flush storm water attenuation tanks
