StormX™

Equipped to handle “first flush” runoff, the StormX
netting trash trap is the perfect tool for full capture
at urban and industrial hot spots.

StormX is an end of pipe netting system designed to capture gross pollutants and handle powerful stormwater runoff.

previousnext

This trap can be used for combined sewer overflow applications as well as stormwater and is a highly effective defense against “first flush” contaminants.

UV resistant, high-density polyethylene (HDPE) nets are re-usable and provide full capture of gross pollutants as small as 5 mm, including organic materials such as leaves that could reduce the levels of phosphorus and nitrogen in a waterway.

The StormX’s 304/316 stainless steel hubs are mechanically anchored into the concrete or attached to existing pipe ends/outfalls. All stainless steel StormX hubs are made in the USA.

Standard sizes are 18” to 84” with custom sizes also available.

Nets are a minimum of 5 feet with custom lengths also available.

The StormX is easily maintained and can be emptied with a truck-mounted crane or a two-person crew.

StormX™ Netting Trash Trap | Advanced Debris Management Solutions

The StormX™ Netting Trash Trap is a cutting-edge solution designed to capture both floatable and non-floatable debris before it reaches bodies of water. Serving as an end-of-pipe best management practice, the StormX seamlessly attaches to concrete pipes, headwalls, and weir walls, making it an ideal choice for effective waterway management. Learn more about our waterway management solutions.

Robust Construction for Various Environments

The StormX is available in two robust materials to suit different environmental conditions:

•Type 304 Stainless Steel: Perfect for most freshwater applications.
•Type 316 Stainless Steel: Ideal for saltwater applications.

Our heavy-duty nets are crafted from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and polyester, availablein various open mesh sizes to efficiently capture debris of different sizes. Explore our materials and specifications.

Versatile Models for Custom Solutions

The StormX comes in three standard models to meet a variety of needs:

1.Full Capture Model: Designed for maximum debris capture.
2.Half-Pipe Weir Model: Suitable for specific flow conditions.
3.Weir Model: Allows for controlled overflow management.

We are committed to customization and can fabricate tailored solutions, such as the dual StormXunit shown in the photo, which functions as a weir to allow overflows while capturing debris. Contact us for custom solutions.

Key Considerations for Effective Use

To ensure optimal performance, all StormX installations should consider the following:
‍
•Overflow Capability: To handle excess water flow and prevent backflow issues.
•Tail-Water Effect: Understanding downstream water levels to maintain efficiency.
•Trash Load Management: Regular maintenance to prevent nets from clogging due to heavy trash loads.

Installation Recommendations

Due to the tensile shear properties and limitations of plastic pipes, we recommend connecting StormX only to concrete pipes and structures. This ensures a secure and durable attachment, maximizing the trap's efficiency and lifespan.
