Surface Water Management (SUDS)

HydroGuard®

Flood management of large culverts and surface water systems

HydroGuard HydroGuard

During periods of high rainfall where the risk of flooding becomes a threat to the surrounding areas the HydroGuard can be installed as an automated flood barrier restricting and/or preventing the passage of flood waters. This system can also be utilised on Watercourse situations where culverts require regular flushing or where water is required to be impoundedupstream for a period of time.

The HydroGuard system is a highly effective flood barrier for large rectangular or circular storm water culvert systems. The HydroGuard can swivel into pre-determined positions within the storm water section activated via a local plc control, programmed for the desired actions.

Advantages and Benefits

  • Provides an automated flood defense barrier with PLC controls enabling flexible automated operation
  • Prevents sediment deposition within culvert and shock loading to the receiving water course due to 'first flush'
  • Suitable for retrofit
  • Reference sites throughout UK and Europe
  • HydroGuard may be used to flush storm water attenuation tanks
