Stop Logs and Stop Boards
KWT Stop Logs (KSL) are similar to the KWT Stop Board (KSB) in functionality. The logs can be rackstored, and come in many variations (sizes, thickness, material). They are used in surface-, sewer- and process water systems. A full stop log is composed from individually removable elements.
The KWT stop log is, for example, very suitable for de-watering a concrete pipe at a purification
plant. But normally, Stop Logs are used in STP's and WWTP's in order to close off a channel for maintenance purposes.
The KSL has been designed to serve several positions when using its related accessories:
it can be fully integrated, cast in or built up. The seal is able to block water flow on two sides.
The KSL is watertight on three sides.
KWT's stop logs usually are made from aluminium. This material is light to handle, and has a perfect fit. Alternatively, KWT supply stainless steel, or even grey steel for that matter, but also HDPE stop logs have been supplied in the past. When required, appropriate reinforcements will be added in order to meet deflection specifications.
For larger stop logs, a lifting beam arrangement made from coated steel will be recommended.
