The Silt Guardian has been developed from our Geoceptor separator. The Silt Guardian is usually sited before an attenuation system. The Silt Guardian prevents silt/sand entering the attenuation system, particularly modular crate/box type and corrugated steel systems which are prone to silt blockage(as shown at base of page).

In normal rainfall which accounts for more than 99% of all storms in the U.K. the Silt Guardians retention and polishing filter system will retain and prevent the majority of silt passing through in suspension, even tiny particles of silt will become trapped in the Guardian's filter which is located on the outlet of the unit as shown below.

It works very simply :

Silt entering the Guardian drops into the top section and then through into large vertical sump, the storage levels have been designed to store quantities of silt that complies with BS en858 for design of separators.

The flow of surface water then has to pass up into the filter housing and through the filter.

The filter gives the storm water a final polish before it enters the attenuation/storage system.
