Conteches Saturn Separator
SATURN SEPARATOR
SATURN SEPARATOR
The Saturn Separator™ is Contech’s newest innovation in stormwater treatment, combining high-flow sediment capture with a compact footprint and easy, unobstructed access for maintenance. It is NJDEP Certified for 50% TSS removal.
The Saturn Separator™ is Contech’s newest innovation in stormwater treatment, combining high-flow sediment capture with a compact footprint and easy, unobstructed access for maintenance.
What makes the Saturn Separator unique is its series of seven flow rings, which dissipate energy, prolong the flow path and enhance sediment settling. The system is designed to handle
high flow rates without scouring previously captured pollutants and includes an internal bypass for peak-flow storm events. The result is a system that treats high flow rates in a small footprint, providing an efficient and economical solution for a wide range of sites.

APPLICATIONS
HYDRODYNAMIC SEPARATION FOR WATER QUALITY
Our hydrodynamic separators are reliable, easy to install, and offer high-performance, proven stormwater pollutant removal. The systems are widely accepted for effective solids removal and can be designed to achieve your site treatment goals - including TMDL requirements for TSS and trash.
PRETREATMENT FOR RAINWATER HARVESTING
Our hydrodynamic separation products are ideal solutions for preatreatment to rainwater harvesting. Not only do they improve the overall water quality, they also provide protect the pumps and controls from being overburdened with material that could clog and damage the mechanical system.
PRETREATMENT TO STORAGE
Our hydrodynamic separators are frequently installed upstream of detention and infiltration systems as pretreatment devices. By capturing the majority of sediment, hydrocarbons and trash and debris upstream of the storage system, maintenance becomes much easier as material is congregated into a smaller device with clear access for cleanout.
Additionally, by utilizing pretreatment upstream of infiltration systems, sediment that would have clogged the stone voids in the storage envelope surrounding the storage chamber can be captured before entering the storage system thus extending the longevity of the entire system.
