Illustrations and operation

During normal flow the angled boom directed all flow into storage chamber where the gross pollutants are separated and stored.

During peak flows, or under tidal influence, the angled boom floats and continues to direct all floating litter into the storage chamber. The regulated flow ensured previously trapped materials are retained.

Velocity through the device is controlled to prevent the blockage of the comb.
