Most versatile
Septage General
The Septage General is our most versatile enclosed septage receiving station. It supports the full range of standard features and optional equipment, so we can configure its piping, controls, access equipment, pretreatment, communications, and enclosure to meet your project requirements.
Best For
Municipalities needing a complete, customized receiving system.
optimize your station
Commander
The Commander is a stand-alone access terminal that automates or upgrades an existing septage receiving station. Install it as a flush-mounted through-wall panel or a surface-mounted unit.
Best For
Retrofit, replacement, and modernization projects.
AUTOMATe ANYWHERE
Pedestal
The Pedestal provides the Commander with access and control in a freestanding panel. It therefore suits existing receiving sites without enough wall space for a mounted terminal.
Best For
Existing sites without suitable wall-mounting space.
CONTROL EVERY ENTRY
Gate Control
The Gate Control unit manages vehicle access at septage receiving station facility sites. It authorizes approved users and creates a controlled entry point before haulers reach the unloading area.
Best For
Facilities requiring automated gate and site-access control.
BUILT AROUND YOUR PROCESS
Custom
When a standard setup does not meet your requirements, Flowpoint can engineer one that does. For example, options can include specialized pretreatment, automated sampling, multiple unloading points, advanced monitoring, and site-specific controls.
Best For:
Facilities with complex or site-specific receiving requirements.
