01 - Series / SS200X
ProcessTrench 200 Series
One continuous trench across the low edge of a production floor, grating flush, fall built into the body. Everything the shift washes down arrives here - so the trench, not the outlet, is what has to take it.
SS200X - fixed parameters
Section
Flow is spread over the length, so the outlet sees less at once than a point drain does. Width is made to measure: the trench follows the washdown line, rather than the line being adjusted to a stock size. Sections bolt end to end, which is what makes a long run shippable.
How this series fails
- Sections that do not align at the joint: the step holds water and the squeegee finds it.
- An outlet at the low end only, with the fall running the other way: the far end silts up.
- A slot grating over a wide body: the gap is what a squeegee pushes into, not out of.
What decides the size
- Run length and the fall available across it
- Solids: a bar grating is a decision about what you are willing to hand-pick
- Whether a pallet truck or racking crosses it - that decides the grating and the load class
- Who lifts the gratings, and whether they can lift a section alone
Where it goes
Production halls, washdown lines, breweries and dairies, meat and ready-meal plants, industrial kitchens with intensive washdown.
