Every septic tank is vacuum tested

to ensure that it is watertight and

structurally sound.

The Klargester septic tank is an

efficiently designed system

whereby sewage is allowed tonaturally break down under an

anaerobic biological process.

Degraded solids form a sludge

which is retained in the primary

chamber of the tank and then

settled effluent is passed from the

tank into an effective soakaway

system. The collected sludge in the

septic tank should be removed by

tanker annually.

Klargester septic tanks have been

subjected to rigorous performance

tests, including a series conducted

under stringent Swedish standards.

The result is a tank design that

leads the market in performance

by minimising the level of

suspended solids in the final

effluent.

The unique Klargester baffle

arrangement has been recently

re-designed and improved toprovide conditions in the tank that

minimise turbulence. This

combined with a long upward flow

path ensures the optimum

settlement, even of fine solids.

Klargester has always maintained

that an adequate and properly

designed effluent disposal system is

vital to the effective performance

of any septic tank system. The

recent CIRIA Technical Note 146

also comments on this and

Klargester's Technical Department

will help you assess the results of

porosity tests, when determining

the size of soakaway for your

application.

Fo" do-.stic dwellings withoutmains drainage, Klargester's

septic tanks provide a reliable,economic and efficient solutionto your sewage disposal needs.

They can be used in locations

where approved porosity testshave demonstrated the subsoil

is suitable for the discharge and

dispersal oftreated effluent and

where approval has been grantedby the appropriate authority.
