Water in the basement: effective backflow protection helps prevent it.

Backflow protection: preventing flooded basements

To prevent basements from filling up with water during floods or heavy rain and avoid expensive damage, effective backflow protection is needed. Read on to find out more about the causes of backflow, what can be done actively and passively against it and which standards must be observed during planning and implementation.

Pipes in large plants for model testing on gas pockets

KSB model testing: Gas pockets – and what can be done about them.

Undissolved gases trapped in high points of pipes can significantly increase flow resistance. Consequences include energy loss and reduced flow rates. But there are ways to avoid or remove gas pockets. KSB has investigated how this can be achieved at different flow rates in a comprehensive model test. Find out more.

Solids in waste water pipes: hydraulic model testing by KSB

Hydraulic model testing: Solids transport in waste water pipes

Many waste waters contain solids such as fibres, sand, grit, stones, or organic contaminants. To make sure that these are also transported safely through the waste water pipes, the flow velocity in particular must be right. KSB has joined forces with the Technical University of Berlin to conduct a comprehensive model test to determine which flow velocities are ideal for which solids, and how they can be specifically influenced. Read on to find out more.
