IS En 12566-3
O’Reilly Oakstown are proud to announce that after 9 months testing at the Institute for Wastewater Technology (PIA Gmbh ) in Aachen, Germany, the Oakstown BAF Wastewater Treatment System has been certified to IS En 12566-3 Annex A,B “Small wastewater treatment systems for up to 50 PT”.
This testing process assessed the treatment efficiency, structural behaviour and water-tightness of the BAF System.
Unsurprisingly, the BAF System performed exceptionally well as can be seen from the certificate below. It shows an average treatment efficiency of;
Bacterial Oxygen Demand (BOD ) 97.5%
Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD ) 92.1%
Total Suspended Solids (TSS ) 97.0%
This proves comprehensively that the Oakstown BAF System outperforms most systems on sale in Ireland, by a large margin in many cases. The En 12566-3 standard is expected to become mandatory for all new wastewater treatment systems sold from July 2010.
