Stormceptor is a hydrodynamic separator offering a range of versatile treatment systems that effectively remove pollutants from stormwater and snowmelt runoff. Stormceptor is flexibly designed to protect waterways from hazardous material spills and stormwater pollution, including suspended sediment, free oils, and other pollutants that attach to particles, no matter how fierce the storm. The Stormceptor’s patented scour prevention technology ensures pollutants are captured and contained during all rainfall events.
| Features | Benefits |
|---|---|
| Patented scour prevention technology | Superior pollutant removal and retention |
| Can take the place of a conventional junction or inlet structure | Eliminates the need for additional structures |
| Minimal drop between inlet and outlet | Site flexibility |
| Multiple inlets can connect to a single unit | Design flexibility |
| 3rd party verified performance (Sediment & Oil) | Treatment with confidence |
With more than 20 years of industry experience, Stormceptor has been tested and verified by some of the most stringent technology evaluation organizations in North America. Stormceptor has been performance verified through numerous State, Provincial, and Federal verification programs, including;

Many municipalities have enacted specific trash control strategies in response to TMDLs or municipal stormwater permit requirements. To address these issues, stormwater managers, municipal officials, and other stakeholders need solutions like Contech's Catch Basin Inlet Filters, Debris Separating Baffle Box, and CDS hydrodynamic separators that can remove trash and TSS, which are easy to maintain and can easily be implemented in a retrofit scenario.
Our hydrodynamic separation products (including the CDS, Cascade Separator, SciCloneX, Vortechs, and Stormceptor Systems) are reliable, easy to install, and offer high-performance, proven, stormwater pollutant removal. The systems are widely accepted for effective solids removal and can be designed to achieve your site treatment goals - including TMDL requirements for TSS and trash.
Our hydrodynamic separators are frequently installed upstream of detention and infiltration systems as pretreatment devices. By capturing the majority of sediment, hydrocarbons and trash and debris upstream of the storage system, maintenance becomes much easier as material is congregated into a smaller device with clear access for cleanout. Additionally, by utilizing pretreatment upstream of infiltration systems, sediment that would have clogged the stone voids in the storage envelope surrounding the storage chamber can be captured before entering the storage system thus extending the longevity of the entire system.
Our hydrodynamic separation products are ideal solutions for preatreatment to rainwater harvesting. Not only do they improve the overall water quality, they also provide protect the pumps and controls from being overburdened with material that could clog and damage the mechanical system.
