Flood Backflow Prevention Devices

June 9, 2016 by

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

AWMA has a range of backflow prevention devices including Flap Gate Valves and Isolation Penstocks.

These products have been proven across a variety of projects including flood mitigation, stormwater control, emergency isolation, water outfalls and tidal control. AWMA Flap Gate Valves facilitate on-way flow, to stop flood waters, storm water and tidal waters re-entering townships via drain outlets.

AWMA specialise in supplying high quality, high performance water control infrastructure, for any application.

AWMA’s flow control products are supplied as standard designs or tailor made to meet specific site requirements.

Features include:

  • The Flap Gate Valves are on a 3 degree angle to ensure sealing under low head differential
  • Full perimeter sealing for up to 10m head pressure
  • Low head loss
  • Gravity and head pressure can achieve automatic one-way flood, tidal or flow control
  • Effective back-flow prevention for flood control
  • Lifting lugs or optional cable winch allows the gate to be raised in emergency or maintenance situations
  • No obstruction of the waterway by supports or framework
  • Pipe or head wall mounted
  • Suitable for corrosive environments
  • Requires minimal civil works to install
  • Low maintenance
  • Designed for any size or shaped orifice 600mm to 3m

For water control structures of modular segments to suit custom sizes see AWMA Stop Logs, or for singular structures see AWMA Bulkhead Gates.

Contact AWMA today to discuss sluice gate mechanisms for your organisation or explore a range of other penstocks and water management systems that we offer.
