How does our technology work?  (TRITON Top Hat FiltersÔ)

The REM TRITONÔ TOP HAT (TH) Filter is an effective and economical solution to help property owners, corporations and municipalities meet stormwater quality requirements and regulations. Easily installed and mounted on the catch basin wall below the grate in combination grate & curb inlet structures and drop inlet storm drains, the REM TRITON Top Hat filter utilizes a patented media cartridge system that effectively removes pollutants from stormwater.

The REM TRITON gravity fed vertical cartridge system treats flow laterally through a three dimensional media pack element resulting in reduced occlusion and increased flow over a range of rainfall intensity. 

The REM TRITON stainless steel media cartridge cam-locks in place onto the filter base plate allowing quick and easy removal for maintenance. The cartridge houses replaceable filter media packs that treat stormwater for pollutants including liquefied petroleum hydrocarbons (Fats, Oils & Grease including animal fats) and Total Suspend Solids (TSS) such as trash, sediment, silt, vegetative debris.  

Media strategy can be configured to address specific discharge concerns. For instance, a common strategy for removing metals includes blending REM FOG (a high quality hydrophobic expanded perlite), AC (activated carbon, and ZEO (zeolite) media.

REM TRITON filters offer quick and easy maintenance made available with replacement media packs

The REM TRITON filters are modular in design allowing for maximum capturing capacity in virtually any storm drain structure or type including drop inlet, curb inlet and combination grate and curb inlet catch basins. A variety of cartridge sizes are scalable to maximize filtered treatment flow rates.

REM TRITON filters are engineered with an overflow bypass eliminating backup or pooling during high intensity rain events that exceed the treatment volume and capacity of the filter.

The REM TRITON filter allows for easy water sampling.  The unique design provides access below the filter through the overflow bypass. Operators can capture filtered and treated stormwater for analysis.
