WaReg prevents rainwater flooding in the industrial area in Åkersberga

Flood risk from stormwater in an industrial area.

In Åkersberga, the municipal water and sanitation department wanted to prevent stormwater flooding in an industrial area. The stormwater was therefore collected in a retention pond and then redirected to a ditch with a maximum flow rate of 50 l/

The solution

To regulate the wastewater from the dam, two parallel-connected WaReg 3.0 flow regulators were installed via a distribution well.

The WaReg 3.0 Flow Regulator regulates the flow through open watercourses, regardless of the water level upstream. The WaReg 3.0 is designed to suit most applications and is available from DN75 - DN400 for flows from 1 l/s to 250 l/s.

Our engineers have worked hard to design a flow regulator that is more efficient than the standard vortex chamber. With WaReg®, the flow rate can be adjusted according to the installation, with the ambition to offer the best solution to keep both people and property safe

    Flow regulation

    Backflow in piping systems can cause major problems both downstream and upstream in the form of flooding and overload. The more specific reasons for regulating a flow can vary, and call for different solutions.
