The maximum flow rate through the filter collector is 4.2 litres per second (depending on the capacity of the downpipe). As with all WISY filters, the cross-sectional area for rainwater flow does not change at any point inside the filter, i.e. to ensure the free flow of water, the cross section is not restricted at any point. There is no risk of blockage even during torrential rainfall events which may flush large quantities of debris into the filter. The filter collector meets the requirements defined by EN 12056 / EN 752 and also conforms to DIN 1989. The hydraulic efficiency of the filter is excellent. With an inflow rate of 2 litres per second, for example, 90 % of the inflowing water is harvested as filtered water.
Filter Collector Fs For The Downpipe
The Filter Collector FS can be fitted anywhere in the downpipe. To install the filter collector, a section measuring 32 cm must be cut out of the downpipe and replaced by the filter collector. A projected roof area of 150 m² (1615 sq.ft.) can by drained by this version of the collector. The housing is available in stainless steel or copper so that it can be visually harmonised with the existing downpipe.
