Acu-Jet jet regulator from Grande

The ACU-JET Jet Regulation System is designed for flow control in CSO, SSO, and batch treatment plant effluents. It efficiently maintains a constant flow rate, ranging from 235 gpm (15 L/s) to 32,000 gpm (2,000 L/s), regardless of upstream water levels. The system uses a jet shield and pivoting radial gate to balance water force and adjust the discharge opening automatically, ensuring a constant regulated flow.

Key Features of the ACU-JET Jet Regulation System

• Wide Flow Range: Regulates flows from 235 gpm to 32,000 gpm, offering versatility for various applications.
• Waterhead Up to 40 ft (12 m): Suitable for systems with varying water head requirements.
• Self-Flushing: Prevents blockages by automatically clearing debris when needed.
• Adjustable Flow Rate: Easily adjust the flow rate on-site, ensuring flexibility to meet changing conditions.
• Simple Installation: No floor offset required and easy adaptation to existing installations.
• Durable Construction: Made from stainless steel, ensuring long-term reliability.
• Cost-Effective: Requires minimal maintenance and eliminates the need for costly on-site calibration.

How the ACU-JET Jet Regulation System Works

The ACU-JET Jet Regulator maintains a constant flow rate by balancing water force against the jet shield. During low flow periods, the pivoting radial gate remains open. As the influent flow increases, the force pushes the jet shield against the counterweight, which triggers the regulation process. As the water force increases, the gate gradually closes, reducing the discharge opening. This system automatically adjusts the opening to match upstream water levels, maintaining a constant regulated flow.

The ACU-JET also includes an automatic self-flushing mechanism to clear blockages. If a blockage occurs, the flow rate decreases, causing the spray shield to drop and the radial gate to open fully, eliminating the blockage. Once the blockage is cleared, the system resumes its operation automatically.

Each ACU-JET Jet Regulator is pre-calibrated and shipped with preset design flow rates, eliminating the need for on-site calibration or flow measurement. Additionally, the system can be fitted with a servo-control unit to adjust the design flow, operated locally or remotely from a central control station. Even during power failures, the system continues to operate at the last set flow rate, ensuring reliable performance.
