SaniTEE® Wastewater Screens

SaniTEE® Wastewater Screens SaniTEE® self-cleaning wastewater deflection screens (commonly known as septic tank effluent filters) are designed to reduce
suspended solids discharged in septic tank effluent by promoting natural
sedimentation and excluding gas-lifted particles from entering the outlet pipe.
Additionally, SaniTEE’s patented keyhole weirs help to attenuate surge flows,
delivering a more consistent flow for further treatment or dispersal. These
features help extend the lives of drain fields, reduce the clogging of orifices
in effluent disposal systems and allow flexibility in the use of different types
of effluent pumps.


How It Works

As sewage enters the septic tank, grease, oils and light weight particles rise to join the scum layer at the water surface. Heavier solids settle to the bottom to join the sludge layer. In between these layers is a zone of relatively clean effluent. This effluent enters the side of the SaniTEE® screen, passing through the angled slots. Clarified effluent then travels up through the inside of SaniTEE and out through patented keyhole weirs to discharge via the standard outlet piping. As solids come in contact with the smooth vertical surface of the screen, they tend to slough off, falling back into the septic tank, instead of collecting inside the filter housing.
