An order for 17 Hydro-Brake Flow Controls, for a major stormwater drainage project in the Jordan Valley area, has been completed in just eight weeks for Hong Kong consulting engineers Scott Wilson.

Arc Energy Resources has completed an export order for seventeen Hydro-Brake Flow Controls for Hydro International. The order, which Hydro received from consulting engineers Scott Wilson, was completed to a tight deadline and shipped to Hong Kong pre-Christmas for a major stormwater drainage project for the Jordan Valley area. Hydro-Brake Flow Controls harness the energy inherent in the flow of liquid, so the units have no moving parts and no external energy requirements.

They are individually designed and manufactured for each installation and typically range in size from 50 mm outlet diameter up to almost two metres.

The seventeen made for Hong Kong have a wide range of bore sizes and were fabricated in 304 stainless steel.

They will be used to drain stormwater from roads and hard tarmac areas.

Commenting for Hydro International, spokesman Alex Stephenson says: 'Arc Energy did well to complete this order in just eight weeks which was needed to avoid interrupting the throughput of our work-in-progress.' Arc Energy project manager Neil Cook says the company's flexible working practices make it possible to accommodate orders such as this without inconveniencing other customers.
