Maintenance of ACO Self Channels with Brickslot Attachments
Maintenance of the ACO Self channels with Brickslot attachments is carried out using an inspection element that is placed directly above the outlet. The inspection element should be opened and the channel flushed about twice a year, depending on local conditions.
The smaller inspection element is suitable for use on the Hexaline channel body or the Euroline channel body with drain socket in combination with a slotted top 850 mm long. For the plastic slotted frames, there is a small inspection element that fits the Hexaline channel.
Ongoing Research and Development
Constant development is crucial for hygienic drainage as it ensures that drainage systems evolve to meet the ever-changing demands of modern environments. Advances in materials, design, and technology enable the creation of drainage solutions that are not only effective in removing water but also prioritize hygiene.
Ongoing research and development innovation addresses new challenges such as the need for self-cleaning features and improved resistance to bacterial growth, creating drainage systems that are easier to clean, maintain, and sanitize. This reduces the risk of contamination in various settings, including food & beverage processing plants, kitchen areas, healthcare facilities, and other spaces with requirements for hygienic drainage.
By embracing a culture of constant improvement, hygienic drainage solutions can stay ahead of emerging threats, ensuring the health and safety of individuals and the integrity of the environments they serve.
