Bypass Interceptors
This style of interceptor should be used when light or infrequent contamination of petrol and oil may occur.
Bypass interceptors differ to full retention as they may not treat and contain all of the pollutant flushed through the system, especially in storm conditions. When a storm flow occurs, the bypass interceptor will contain some contaminants but will allow the excess flows through without prohibiting full bore flow. For this reason, a bypass interceptor is used for smaller locations, where flow calculations allow.
Bypass Interceptors are suitable options for: Smaller Car Parks, Industrial Estates, Roads and Highways, Small manufacturing units.
