Silt Guard SS500 Series

How it works: Rainwater enters the unit and the silt and solids in the flow will drop into the basket and settle in the sump, the excess rainwater will overflow into the main chamber and any lighter silt and sand will settle at the base of the trap and then cleaner separated water discharges from the outlet pipe into the drainage system.
