Flushing methods with reservoir -Tipping bucket
Cleaning phases
The emptying of the water reservoir is automatically triggered by a shift in its centre of gravity as it reaches the maximum filling level. The cleaning phases phases of the tipping bucket system are shown below. According to [FI-UFT], the gradient of the individual flushing lanes should be between 1% and 5%.
