3 ACO Qmax System Load Classes ACO Qmax is suitable for use in all load class applications. The patented beam feature enables use of the optimum pavement reinforcement details when dealing with specialist and high load situations, thereby reducing total cost and ensuring speed of installation is not compromised. Additional reinforcement may be specified in the concrete surround for higher load applications. ACO Qmax is suitable for the following applications: Group1 Group 2 Group 3 Group4 Group 5 Group 6 BS EN 1433:2002 Load Class Load Class A 15kN Load Class B 125kN Load Class C 250kN Load Class D 400kN Load Class E 600kN Load Class F 900kN Pedestrian Private car parks Public car/van parks Highways Distribution centres Airport pavements The ACO Qmax channel system is protected by patent and registered design rights.

10 ACO Qmax System ACO Q-Brake Flow Regulator The ACO Q-Brake is a flow regulator which can be installed in the ACO Qmax channel to regulate the discharge flow rate to a sewer or watercourse, and to utilise the storage capacity of the ACO Qmax channel. Advantages Very compact. Occupies no additional volume as it resides inside the channel. No extra manholes required. Cost effective compared to most other solutions. Easy and quick to install. Laboratory verified performance. Standard regulator sizes available, custom sizes easily accommodated. 304 stainless steel construction for longevity. No moving parts. No loose parts to get lost. Silt formation and floating debris encouraged to pass through regulator. By-pass facility for heavy storm applications (optional). Can be used in cascade form to increase ACO Qmax storage volume on sloping sites. The flow regulator is cut from 3mm thick 304 stainless steel plate and is conveniently sandwiched in the recess between any two connecting channels or channel and manhole connector. The stainless steel construction ensures the design life will exceed a 30-year life. Flow Rate (l/s) 15 ACO Qmax ACO Qmax ACO Qmax ACO Qmax ACO Qmax ACO Qmax ACO Qmax ACO Qmax ACO has conducted full-scale laboratory trials to validate the design parameters of the combined orifice and vee notch weir. Many combinations of weir and orifice geometries can be used to best optimise the performance of the installed ACO Q-Brake flow regulator for a given site. 10 Note: For customised flow regulation outside the standard range, contact the ACO Drain Design Service Department. The ACO Q-Brake is an additional component of the ACO Qmax System.
