Dyketector
A system of jointed channels designed to receive the flow from a drainage pipe and discharge it directly into the water course thus preventing any erosion of the embankment. Ideal for the deeper dykes of the fenland area and any situation where the outfall pipe is discharging at a distance above the water course. The geo-textile attached to the side flanges forms a permanent anchor for the units. Cover with top soil and allow vegetation to grow through.
Double ended Dyketector headwall
Pipe sizes: Up to 150mm
1000mm lengths
Approximate weight: 15kg
With the integral splash plate located at the ditch bottom will accept pipes that are no more than 700mm up (see table).
Single ended Dyketector headwall
Pipe size: 150mm plastic, 1000mm lengths.
Approximate weight: 15kg.
To be used with dyketector splash plates where the outfall pipe is more than 700mm from ditch bottom (see table).
Dyketector channel
Approximate weight: 15kg. and 10kg. respectively
The spigot and socket ends enable these units to be easily connected to the dyketector splash plate and headwall units to ensure maximum protection to the embankment irrespective of distance of the drain from water course.
Dyketector splash plate
Approximate weight 15kg. and 10kg. respectively.
To be used with the single ended dyketector or with the dyketector channels (see table) to minimize erosion at the ditch bottom.
