APOLLO 150 percolation tunnel, 150 L, 1200 x 760 x 330 mm

Description

APOLLO 150 percolation tunnel for drainage systems

The APOLLO 150 percolation tunnel is a modular element for distributing and infiltrating rainwater, septic tank effluent after pre-treatment, or treated water into the soil, where legislation and site conditions allow. Several modules can be connected into a system designed according to the volume of water and soil permeability.

Technical data confirmed by the manufacturer

Marseplast documentation for APOLLO 150/80 specifies a nominal volume of 150 litres per module, length 1200 mm, width 760 mm, height 330 mm and a 110 mm inlet. The system needs no power supply, but its performance depends on the soil and on the sizing of the whole infiltration field.

• Model: Marseplast APOLLO 150.
• Nominal volume: 150 L/module.
• Dimensions: 1200 x 760 x 330 mm (L x W x H).
• Connection: Ø110 mm.
• Uses: dispersing rainwater and infiltrating compatible effluent, subject to design.
• Underground installation in a granular material bed with ventilation elements, according to the installation sheet.

Installation conditions

The designer/installer must check the soil permeability, the water table level, the distance from other structures and permit requirements. The documentation states an indicative minimum distance of 1.5 m between the bottom of the tunnel and the groundwater level, and a maximum burial depth of 0.8 m in the configuration described. These values must be checked against the design and the manufacturer's full instructions.

Frequently asked questions

How many APOLLO 150 tunnels are needed?

The number of modules is calculated from the volume of water, soil permeability and site restrictions, not just the number of people.

Does the tunnel replace the septic tank?

No. It is a drainage/infiltration element, not equipment for primary wastewater treatment.

Can it be installed in any ground?

No. Soil permeability, the water table and local conditions must be checked.
