ACO Stainless

There is a vast range of different stainless steels available. Austenitic stainless steels encompass the generic 304 and 316L grades and are ideal for applications found in the food processing, dairy, brewing, pharmaceutical, chemical and petrochemical industries. ACO stainless steel products encompass various industry needs, and if in doubt, you can contact us to assess the material suitability for the application.

The following features make stainless steel an obvious choice for demanding drainage applications;

Excellent strength and resistance to oxidation at high temperatures.
Durability and corrosion resistance in highly aggressive environments.
Hygienic and easily cleaned surfaces.
Non-magnetic properties (working the material can introduce some magnetic properties).
100% recyclable.

Leveling Feet

Threaded leveling feet with red plastic clip allow free adjustment of channel height. Once clip is fully secured, a fine adjustment is still possible using a screw driver.

Grate Lockings

For applications where locked grates are required, ACO Modular channel systems can be supplied with factory fitted standard lockings or security locking. Channel section with optional grate locking detail shown below.

Different edge details are available to suit different types of floor finishes

Edge in-fill ensures stable and durable transition of applied loads between the trench and surrounding floor, minimizing risk of floor cracks.

Modular channels come standard with a solid rubber edge in-fill. Solid stainless steel in-fill is also available. Load class or flooring type may determine the edge in-fill choice.

Channel Edge

Constant depth or sloping straight units
Corner units
Branch units
Various outlet options

Flexible, off-the-shelf drainage solution available in:

4.92" (125 mm) or
7.87" (200 mm) wide channels

Offers enhanced flow efficiency at low flow rates and improved self cleaning performance.

V-bottom Channel Profile

Outlet Options

There are two outlet options available:
1. For direct connection to waste water pipe
2. Used in combination with Floor Drain bodies

The properties of stainless steel makes it the most suitable material for use in waste water applications. In high saline environments, or applications where a higher chemical resistance is required, ACO recommends using grade 316L stainless steel.

Material

A large selection of grates are available in stainless steel or other materials, certified up to 60 tons. Unlocked grates make it easy to get access to the channel and lockable grates prevent unauthorized removal.

Accessories

ACO Modular channels come complete with seal and connecting hardware.

Where the drain needs connection to grounding, either a tab or bolt is availble at the outlet.

Pickling & Passivation

All ACO stainless steel channels are pickled and passivated to restore corrosion resistance and optimum durability.

The properties of stainless steel, such as corrosion resistance, nonmagnetic, durable and smooth (easy to clean/hygienic), makes it the most suitable material for use in waste water applications.
In a high saline environment or in applications where a higher chemical resistance is required, ACO recommends using grade 316L stainless steel.

Edge in-fill ensures stable and durable transition of applied loads between the trench and surrounding floor, which helps minimize risk of floor cracks that can harbor microorganisms.

Modular channels come standard with rubber edge in-fill. If a solid stainless steel in-fill is required, contact ACO. Load class or flooring type may determine correct edge in-fill.
