The SPI®‘s PETRO-PIPE PI616-M2 is a screw-in cartridge for filtering hydrocarbon-contaminated rainwater from medium-sized transformer retention tanks and pits, for permanent use. Its self-locking system traps harmful particles, preventing soil pollution. Its oleophilic and hydrophobic polymer component permanently traps hydrocarbons.
Description
SANERGRID‘s PETRO-PIPE PI616-M2 is a cartridge specially invented by SPI® in the 1990s for easy adaptation to all types of bunds and retention pits. It provides continuous filtration of drainage water, while trapping harmful dielectric oils as well as hydrocarbons such as petrol, diesel, fuel jets, etc.: it thus prevents soil pollution in compliance with standard EN 858-1 and the Water Act, with a discharge rate of less than 5ppm. It also complies with paragraph 471 of NF C13-200 (“All precautions must be taken to ensure that the recovery tank does not fill with water or that water is evacuated“). Our filters are regularly tested in independent laboratories, when new, in half-life conditions and after their recommended period of use (see Additional Information tab).
In the event of a major hydrocarbon spill, the component reacts and forms a plug, preventing any fluid from spilling into the environment. It is a self-locking system, operating without any mechanical parts or electrical connections.
Description of the PETRO PIPE® PI-616-M2:
Made from reinforced rigid PVC with UV protection for extra strength and durability.
Hydrophobic, oleophilic polymer component: permanently locks in dielectric oils and petrol or diesel hydrocarbons. Consult the PI-616-FR3 and PI-620-SYNBLOC ranges for natural or synthetic esters.
