RWM-DM

The ETV Canada test protocol is the new standard that people refer to in Canada for OGS systems. We are the first to meet the new testing and reporting requirement. The latest requirement limits the inlet pipe size to ¼ the manhole diameter and limits the length to 3 times the pipe diameter. The old protocol did not limit inlet pipe size and allowed the inlet pipe length to be 4 pipe diameters. The new ETV requirement includes the disclosure of the quantity of sediment settled in the inlet pipe during testing.

We tested OGS configurations mimicking competitor systems and found they would remove over 85% of the sediment captured in the upstream pipe. This means that the OGS units that do this and are installed in the field will be trapping the pollutants in the upstream piping system rather than the OGS manhole. RWM targeted zero pipe settling so that we trap the sediment in the OGS manhole as it should be. ALL OGS systems tested prior to the RWM-DM have included the sediment settled in the inlet pipe in their TSS removal calculations. Most of the ETV approved products are specifically designed to enhance the pipe settling as part of their testing to make their performance look better than it is.

The RWM-DM-OS unit has a lower weir height then the RWM-DM and specifically targets oil spill capture and retention while still removing sediment.
