RDS-20 Rainwater Management System (Rain Diverter)

Rain Diverter System Panel Control

Many wash facilities do not have a roof over the wash pads so when it rains, storm water can flow through the pre-treatment system into the city sewers and overwhelm the system. To make sure that doesn’t happen, we have designed a simple, programmable rain diverter system (RDS-20).

The concept is fairly straightforward. When the system senses at least ¼” of rainfall, a controller turns on the pumps for a pre-set time to remove the floating oils and water from the wash pad through our pre-treatment system. This time is factory set for 15 minutes, but can be readily changed to suit field conditions.

After the first flush of rainwater with the contaminants are removed, the RDS then shuts down the system to prevent excess storm water from entering the tank and the sewer system.  After the rain event, the RDS will reset to allow normal operation of the treatment system.  If needed, the system can be manually overridden to allow washing operations during rain events.
