Project information
The LSRC (Levine Science Research Center) at Duke University has commissioned a highly efficient rainwater collection system for toilet and urinal flushing in the new facility. Rainwater is collected from the roof of the facility and pre-filtered through the WISY WFF 300 Vortex fine filter before being stored in a 12,000 gallon underground storage tank.

More info
Rainwater Management Solutions INC in Salem VA supplied the state-of-the-art day tank system which, with its four-stage process, ensures that high quality water is always available for the duplex pumps that supply the plant with water. With RMS's four-stage process, the rainwater storage tank no longer needs to be completely emptied or cleaned during the entire life of the system. The RMS day tank system reduces component size and cost, as well as maintenance costs, while delivering the volume and water quality the facility owner needs and deserves.
The RMS 100 Series Rainwater Harvesting Controller is used to control the rainwater system. The controller monitors tank levels, domestic and rainwater flow rates and ensures that chlorine and dye are fed into the system according to the system's design parameters. The RMS Series 100 controller stores flow, level and other data and is able to communicate with the building automation system. Alarms and other information can be sent via the control unit by text message or email.
