Integral Ductice Iron Rail and Locking Grate

TraffikDrain combines the benefits of a standard grated trench drain with a high capacity intake grate and large high volume pipe connection flume. This ensures maximum water intake through the grate and helps drain road surfaces drain as quickly as possible preventing ponding and the danger to road users that this creates. 60 one-meter long units provide 196’-10” continuous slope.

Compact size and shallow excavation minimizes disruption to vehicle or pedestrian traffic, and buried utilities, during installation.

Fixed grate option also available; grates that are permenantly fixed during
manufacture. Each grate is held by 2 sprung steel pins inserted horizontally through the ductile iron frame cast into the body and through the side wall of the grate.

Typical applications

Urban areas

Parking lots
Highways
Interstates
State roads

 

 
 
TraffikDrain - Features
ductile iron grates
. Ductile iron grates -
heavy duty ductile iron grates
rated to EN 1433 / DIN 19580 Load Class E. Large intake
slots offer 60% open area of
38.92 sq. in. per foot.

. Integral ductile iron
wearing rail - integrally cast-
in rail provides maximum
strength and protection for
channel body. Shock absorbing
widgets, with M10 stainless
steel threads, are fitted in rail
to provide fitting for grate bolts.		 .Two M10 bolts per half meter (19.69”) grate - steel bolts do not react with stainless steel widget to ensure removal for maintenance. When combined with the two anti-shunt lugs, provides four points of capture per grate.

 anti shunt lugs
. Anti-shunt’ lugs -
recesses in grate fit around
lugs on the edge rail to
prevent longitudinal
movement. Also prevents grate from lifting.

. Flume Outlets – offer large high capacity outlet for connection into a collector line or catch basin. Fits to the base of the Outlet Channel.
Available as 8” or 12” Schedule 40 vertical or horizontal outlet.

4” & 6” Schedule 40 drillouts - included on all channel units to allow vertical evacuation of the system along the run.
Note: for 6” drill-out, an oval to round adapter will be required. (Part No 95140)

profiled side walls
. Profiled side walls
- strengthening pillars and
frost keys provide channel
body strength and mechanical
keying to surrounding concrete.

. Direction arrows cast on
side of channel indicate flow
direction and ensure channels
are installed correctly.		 . Polymer concrete
construction offers high
durability and is resistant to
road salts and other
common road pollutants.
Polymer concrete is
manufactured from polyester
resins reinforced with
mineral aggregates and
fillers. It provides up to four
times the compressive
strength or cement concrete
and minimal water
absorption prevents
freezethaw breakdown.

. Interconnecting end
profiles allow easy and effective joining of channels. Appropriate sealant can be used to create a sealed joint.
. Sloped (0.6%) channel
units - meter long units
provide 196’-10” continuous
slope. This equates to 1/16"
fall per linear foot. Neutral
units can be for neutral depth
runs or can be used to
extend sloping run lengths.
. 4.00” (100mm) internal
width channels. ‘U’ shaped
bottom improves flow hydraulics, providing excellent drainage capacity for any road catchment area.
