Roadside Pollution Control Technology The Telestopper™ The TelestopperTMis a heavy duty, portable pneumatic bladder system for the roadside containment of liquid pollutants such as oils, fats, chemicals, milk, sewage, etc. More effective than a drain mat the, TelestopperTM can convert a roadside drain in to a containment vessel which on sloping grounds prevents the spilt item from running down hill into the next opening.
How it works video Vehicle Telestopper Demonstration The TelestopperTM can also be used on a site to deal with larger spils beyond the capacity of a spill kit. However, the drians must be readily accessible and the materials classified as low hazard. In flood control the TelestopperTM can be used to block toilets bowls and drains where backflow is a real risk to properties.
Emergency Spill Containment Kit
Supplied either loose or in an emergency call point type enclosure, with a break glass to open key box, the Telestopper/sTM become your first line of defence in the event of a spill. Normal practice is to lift the lid of the drain, insert the Telestoppers TMbladder into the outlet pipe using the telescopic handle and inflate. If there are more than one drain on site this process should be repeated for each drain at risk from the spill, and remember, corrugated and even distorted pitch fibre pipes can be sealed off using the TelestoppersTM highly flexible bladder!
The Industrial TelestopperTM can cater for drain outlets ranging from 4" (10cm) to 18" (450cm) diameter. Larger sizes are available to special order.
Telestopper sealing off a 12" land drain
To the right is a photograph of a deployed TelestopperTM sealing off a 12" (30 cm) diameter drain to prevent a spill from entering a drainage ditch. In this example, the drain is sealed at the outlet rather than inlet. This has the advantage of increasing the capacity of the "containment vessel created" to perhaps a 1000 x that of a standard spill kit.
