Re: Water tank and pump configuration 16Apr 29, 2019 11:33 am I have a very simple tank cleaner design that is like a vacuum head that you push slowly over the floor and it works well. In time I will have it on the website at a cost including postage that will be cheaper than someone buying the parts and then having to calculate suction angles and velocities. You can fit a simple and inexpensive DIY sediment trap to a non turbulent section of 100mm DWV wet system pipe that will capture the bed load and discharge it manually through a reduced sized pipe. Bed load is settled suspended sediment and heavier debris that clumps in 'colonies' on the bottom of the pipe but when it travels and comes to the sediment trap, it simply falls down the 'hole'. The trap not only dramatically alters the amount of sediment that is common to rain water tanks, it also alters the type of sediment to something that resembles fine talcum powder. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ We now use an invert taper and not a pipe reducer to downsize the pipe because the pipe reducer retains some sediment at the bottom below the outlet. Reducing the pipe size increases the velocity, decreases the flush yield loss and allows the purchase of a smaller and cheaper valve. A 40mm DWV pipe holds roughly 1 1/4 litres per metre. There is usually a low restriction inlet fitted and this is closed when the collected bedload is flushed. A one year summary of a 4 tank system that used this sediment trap is linked below. See post 61. The happy home owner also made the above diagram! Thanks John. viewtopic.php?p=1146540#p1146540 3in1 Supadiverta. Rainwater Harvesting Best Practice using syphonic drainage.
