The ACO PowerDrain S100K is a compact, heavy-duty trench drain system built for demanding sites where space is tight but performance can’t slip. Below you’ll find key specs, common applications, design tips, a practical installation checklist, and a real-world case study you can learn from.
Technical: The S100K uses a polymer concrete channel with integral ductile iron edge rails for superior load distribution, chemical resistance, and long service life under harsh conditions.
Plain English: It’s a tough, compact drain that won’t crack under heavy traffic, resists chemicals like de-icers and oils, and fits where larger drains won’t.
Use the S100K when you need high strength in a compact footprint:
| Site Type | Why S100K Works |
|---|---|
| Loading docks & distribution centers | Class F capacity handles forklifts and tractor-trailers; narrow profile fits near doors and grade breaks. |
| Fire/EMS & municipal yards | Withstands hot tires, frequent wash-downs, and de-icing salts; grates lock securely to prevent uplift. |
| Industrial plants & refineries | Polymer concrete resists oils and many chemicals; V-invert improves self-cleaning velocity. |
| Roadway tie-ins & parking structures | Compact 4″ width sits tight to curbs and walls; built-in slope simplifies long runs. |
Technical: Size grates to duty (EN 1433 class), check hydraulic grade line (HGL) at peak flow, and specify anti-shunt features to avoid grate migration under braking loads.
Plain English: Pick the grate for how heavy the traffic is, make sure the drain can carry peak stormwater, and use the built-in locking/anti-shunt features so the grates stay put and quiet.
Project Brief: A city fire station struggled with ponding at the bay doors during storm events and routine apparatus wash-downs. The site had minimal elevation fall and frequent heavy axle loads.
Solution: Designers selected ACO S100K PowerDrain with ductile iron grates (Class F) to handle ladder truck loads. A continuous run with the built-in 0.5% slope and V-invert directed water to a new sediment sump.
Install Highlights: Channels were numbered and set to grade rapidly; PowerLok® made grate installation tool-free and secure. Anti-shunt lugs eliminated grate creep under braking.
Outcome: After the first season, staff reported no standing water at bay thresholds, faster clean-downs, and noticeably quieter operations as vehicles crossed the drain. Maintenance logs showed reduced debris accumulation due to improved velocities in the V-invert.
Yes—structural capacity is independent of width. With polymer concrete and ductile iron rails, the S100K reaches Class F loads while keeping the footprint compact.
Match duty class to traffic (pedestrian vs. forklift vs. truck), then select a pattern (heel-proof, slotted, ductile iron) based on safety, flow, and aesthetics.
The polymer concrete body offers strong resistance to salts, oils, and many common industrial chemicals. Confirm compatibility for specialty chemicals with your spec team.
