OPERATING PRINCIPLE

The intelligent FinnFlow® system takes advantage of natural water flow to create a reliable, energy-saving and low maintenance system. The system suits all tanks requiring surface scum removal. The requirement is that the FinnFlow® collector can be connected to a removal pipe or a channel for cleaned water in order to generate a flow.

The most common applications of the FinnFlow® system are preliminary and secondary sedimentation tanks in which scraper flights transfer the sludge close to the FinnFlow® collector. The FinnFlow® system collects surface scum to the collector by regulating the water levels. Since it uses a continuous flow, treated clean water comes along with the surface scum.

The system’s intelligent technology directs surface scum to a smaller scum collection box located inside the collector, while transferring the treated water to a removal pipe for clean water via a pipe located at the bottom of the collector. Water movement is regulated at each stage at different water levels.
