Thus, a filter tank of the required volume is obtained.

Important: choosing a series of septic tanks TANK UNIVERSAL, you save on transport costs!

Features and Benefits

After installing any model of the Triton septic tank, it is necessary to properly and constantly carry out their maintenance. These works consist in removing the sediment that accumulates over time at the bottom of the tank.

If this is not done for a long time, then the wastewater will be treated worse and incomplete.

Autonomous septic tanks "Triton" have a number of positive qualities, the main of which are the following:

1. Low price is the main advantage of Triton treatment plants. This is obvious, since not everyone has the opportunity to live permanently in the country, and it makes no sense to install a large-volume septic tank, and treatment devices such as Triton are designed specifically for occasional use.
2. Large selection of assortment in the model range "Triton". Any consumer will be able to buy a suitable septic tank that will work satisfactorily with the installation of an infiltrator or an aeration field (filtration site).
3. The autonomy of the septic tank. The main thing is to properly mount the device, and the septic tank does not require electricity or other external power sources.
4. Easy installation and maintenance.The installation of a septic tank can be done with your own hands, and it is also easy to maintain it - you need to periodically pump out the solid sediment that accumulates at the bottom of the chamber.
5. Long-term operation of the septic tank. In "Triton" there are no mechanisms or devices that can fail, the body of the septic tank is made of durable polymer and will serve up to 50 years according to the warranty.

Installation of septic tanks Triton

Installation of any septic tank of the Triton series is as follows:

1. A pit is dug of the appropriate size for a particular septic tank. On each side of the pit there should be a margin of 30-40 cm and from below 40-50 mm for pouring concrete. A septic tank will be mounted on this base.
2. Then it is necessary to dig trenches for the supply pipe and for the outlet pipes, which are connected to the aeration field or to the infiltrator.
3. All septic tanks (if there are several) must be connected with plastic pipes, the trenches should be covered with sand mixed with soil, 20-30 cm thick. . From above, the trenches should be covered with a mixture of sand and cement and compacted well.

Triton-Micro

The Triton septic tank of the Micro model is small in size and looks like a cylinder 1500 mm high and 760 mm in diameter.

Can be installed in any area.

To organize a high degree of water purification, the septic tank is supplemented with an infiltrator, which once again purifies the already treated wastewater and releases it into the soil.

The body of the Triton-Micro tank is made of multilayer polyethylene, and protects the septic tank from corrosion, and also increases the service life even at the lowest temperatures.

The septic tank Triton-Micro purifies wastewater using a filter on a floating load.

This innovative method is able to purify water by 65%.

Triton-Micro must be pumped out every year with proper operation and avoiding overload. To increase the pumping time, it is necessary to use microorganisms that decompose solid particles.

Of the advantages, autonomy (without connecting electricity) can be noted. The Triton-Micro septic tank is by far the cheapest cleaning agent, and is available to consumers with any level of security.

Triton-Mini

The body of the Triton-Mini cleaning system, as well as the infiltrator, is made of polyethylene.

The septic tank can also operate at temperatures down to -30°C.

The Triton-Mini septic tank is delivered completely ready for work - you just have to bring the kit to the dacha and mount it.

The daily volume of wastewater is from 400 liters (about 40 buckets).

The maximum load on the Triton-Mini is up to 1000 liters of wastewater per day.

Triton N

Septic tank Triton N is a storage treatment system, which consists of a sealed tank with a volume of up to 10 m3.

Such a large reservoir is intended mainly for country houses, townhouses and cottages that do not have central sewerage.

The septic tank is cleaned using sewage equipment.

There are several versions of cases for Triton N. Tank volumes - from 1 to 10 m3, in different colors and with different body configurations.

Most of all, Triton N with a tank volume of 3.5 m3 is in demand now, since such a volume is designed for one filling of a sewage tank.

The cost of a septic tank ranges from 25-30,000 rubles. Containers of other volumes most often need to be ordered in advance.

Service

Once a year, the solid particles of the accumulated sludge in the receiving chamber of the installation must be pumped out, as they are compressed and difficult to clean. The compressor air filter is cleaned twice a year. The membrane is replaced with the same frequency.

The conservation of the station for the winter period takes place in several stages.

• You need to disconnect the septic tank from the power supply.
• After that, it is necessary to pump out the drains in the reception room and the secondary settling of the chambers with the help of a sewage machine. It is forbidden to pump out wastewater from the nutrifier in order to avoid violation of the biological load.
• After that, you need to thoroughly rinse the airlift, nozzles, and receiving chamber.
• Then it is necessary to fill the capacity of the station with clean water by 75%. Loads of sand should float inside.
• It is necessary to remove the compressor, it is better to store it warm.
• After that, it is worth insulating the lid of the septic tank.

Advantages and disadvantages of a Triton septic tank

It looks like a Septic Triton-Mini installed in the ground

There are quite a lot of systems on the market that carry out local wastewater treatment, and they all have their advantages and disadvantages.When choosing a treatment plant, it is necessary to take into account what tasks it faces and where it should be located.

For example, if you are choosing a septic tank for your summer cottage, then it is better for you to choose non-volatile systems, such as Triton, and if you are organizing a treatment plant for a private house in a city with permanent residence, then it is most likely reasonable for you to look for more powerful non-volatile systems, such such as Topas, Tver, Unilos Astra, Evostok Bio.

Advantages:

• Durable, durable and high reliability is achieved through the manufacture of Triton from polypropylene. The service life reaches 50 years. If we talk about such home-made structures, then we can consider a septic tank from Eurocubes.
• High performance and efficiency - tanks can receive a sufficient amount of wastewater for subsequent settling and post-treatment.
• The septic tank is pumped out quite rarely - about 1 time per year, and when using anaerobic bacteria, this period can be increased up to 5-8 years.
• Save money - installation is very simple and does not require specific tools, so you can save on it.
• Energy independence - for the operation of the septic tank, it does not need to be connected to the power supply, so it can be installed during periodic residence and in places where frequent power outages are noticed.

However, some advantages on the one hand may be disadvantages on the other hand:

Non-volatile septic tanks (including Tank and Termite) do not have a very high degree of filtration - about 65-70%, in order for the filtration degree to be about 98%, as in volatile sewage treatment plants, it is necessary to additionally equip soil post-treatment of wastewater using an infiltrator or filter fields. This, in turn, requires additional space.

Manufacturer information

manufactures sewers for cottages, as well as products and containers for autonomous sewers. It can be:

• wells;
• sewerage systems;
• treatment facilities;
• settling tanks.

They are based on polypropylene and polyethylene, which are characterized by high wear resistance and strength. If you purchase a Triton septic tank, then you can count on the complete tightness of the tanks, their long service life, which reaches 50 years, and ease of installation. The manufacturer advises consumers, before starting to create an autonomous sewer, to decide which scheme will be used for an autonomous sewage treatment. Some systems from other companies can perform post-filtration of wastewater even before it enters the ground. But they provide for the need for cleaning. Whereas if you purchase one of the models, you can count on the uninterrupted operation of an autonomous system, which often does not involve human intervention after installation is completed.

Septic tank Triton N

storage septic tank guarantees

A septic tank is made of polyethylene, which is inherent in all mini septic tanks. This choice of material is explained by its ability to withstand large physical and mechanical loads.In addition, during the operation of the septic tank, there will be no release of toxic substances into the atmosphere, which means it will not cause any harm to the environment and people living in the country.

To date, several models of the Triton H septic tank are being produced, which differ from each other in wall thickness and dimensions. The "younger relative" in this family of septic tanks is Triton n 1, whose wall thickness is 14 mm, and its parameters are within 1200 × 11700 mm. Older generation septic tanks in this line can have a capacity of 40,000 liters, which will already be quite enough not only for summer cottages, but also for a medium-sized house. Regardless of which model of the Triton N septic tank you are going to purchase, the following items should be included in its delivery package:

• lid;
• neck;
• well for the pump.

The height of the well for installing the well directly depends on the installation depth of the treatment plant.

How to install a septic tank "Tank"

The manufacturer of treatment facilities, the Triton Plastic company, recommends that after the purchase of treatment facilities, special attention be paid to their correct installation, then the efficiency of the septic tank will please the owners for a long time. We pay special attention to the installation site of the treatment plant, its appearance after transportation (presence of dents, damage)

It is necessary for the owner to choose a place for the installation of treatment structures where there are no groundwater on the site or are deep enough. The septic tank can be installed independently, but it is recommended to call the installers involved in this work professionally

We pay special attention to the installation site of the treatment plant, its appearance after transportation (presence of dents, damage). It is necessary for the owner to choose a place for the installation of treatment structures where there are no groundwater on the site or are deep enough

The septic tank can be installed independently, but it is recommended to call installers who do this work professionally.

Installation procedure:

• To dig a pit, we attract (hire) an excavator, the rest of the work is done manually.
• It is necessary to leave a distance for backfilling between the wall of the pit and the septic tank, at least 25-30 centimeters.
• The bottom of the pit is necessarily sprinkled with a layer of sand, a “cushion” is made, under a structure 50 millimeters high.
• To backfill a septic tank, a mixture of sand and cement is used, the ratio of parts is 1: 5, be sure to tamp the backfill, check access to the water structure, it is necessary.

Important! The sewage treatment plant should be filled faster, and the water level should be 200 millimeters higher than the backfill. Use the manufacturer's instructions for installing a septic tank when installation work is carried out independently

Rating of septic tanks for a country house

The main characteristics of septic tanks for a private house are the following parameters:

• Capacity. A wide range of sizes of septic tanks is one of the main needs of modern homeowners;
• Resistance to negative external factors. Temperature changes, high pressure, spring rise in groundwater can affect not only the operation of the septic tank, but also its integrity;
• The material from which the tank is made. For the production of septic tanks, foamed polystyrene is most often used. But they can also be made from cross-linked plastics, metal alloys, and many other materials;
• Energy independence. For a private house and a summer residence, it is much more convenient to use a container that does not depend on the local electrical circuit;
• Dimensions. A compact septic tank is suitable for installation on a plot of non-standard shape or simply installation in a country house with a small yard. Large systems are becoming less and less preferred, giving way to small waste tanks;
• Affordable cost.

According to reviews on construction forums, the Tank septic tank tops this rating.It exemplifies the perfect combination of compact size and strength. At the same time, the price of the device is lower than some other representatives of this market. There are also no complaints about the durability and efficiency of this drain. Due to the stiffening ribs that permeate the entire body of the system, the "Tank" copes well with pressure drops and high groundwater.

Septic Tank

Topas is in second place in popularity. It is ideal for cesspools of country houses. During the day, this compact system is able to process more than 20 liters of waste, which is almost 2 times more than its counterparts. Depending on the needs, vertical and horizontal placement is possible.

Vertical septic tank Topas

Triton is a high-quality deep cleaning septic tank. The manufacturer produces the system in several modifications: mini, medium and maxi. The size and capacity is chosen based on the size of the family and the needs of the homeowner. Another feature of this biological treatment plant is durability. "Triton" is made of a dense layer of cross-linked plastic. It does not give in to corrosion and maintains differences of temperature to 20 degrees.

In fourth place on the list is the cheapest of all the listed models - septic tank DKS. Its cost makes it an unrivaled wastewater treatment plant. Of course, it is significantly inferior to "Tank" and "Topas" in terms of filtering, but it requires less investment. It is made of plastic casting methods.

Septic tank

At this point, the rating can be considered complete, since the remaining wastewater treatment systems are approximately equally popular.In addition, homeowners often confuse storage and treatment systems, which is why simple settling tanks fall into the list of septic tanks.

Model "Triton-T"

This model is produced in the form of a three-section tank, with wastewater settling processes taking place in each of the sections. In the largest volume of the first section, coarse and heavy solid impurities precipitate, forming a dense sludge at the bottom of the section, which subsequently decomposes under the action of anaerobic bacteria.

Further, the water enters the second section, where further wastewater treatment takes place, and during the passage of the third section, the wastewater is even better cleaned. Nonetheless, septic tank Triton this The model also requires the connection of an infiltrator or an aeration field planted with aerobic bacteria for effective cleaning.

Do-it-yourself equipment installation

Installation of Triton series models will require the following steps:

1. creation of a pit.
   The pit for the device is dug with the expectation of external sprinkling and a shock-absorbing cushion.
   The dimensions of the pit should be larger than the structure by 30 centimeters in width and length, and in height - by 50 centimeters;

 
A high aquifer or installation in shaky ground will require laying a concrete slab on the bottom of the pit, to which the septic tank body will be fixed.

creation of communications for supplying drains, arranging a pit for an infiltrator;
installation of a septic tank, connection of the pipeline;

backfilling the pit with a dry mixture of sand and cement.
In parallel, the tank is filled with water using a membrane pump (description here).
This is done in order to avoid wall deformations;

creating an infiltrator.

Advantages and disadvantages

The Triton septic tank of various models has the only drawback, which is that wastewater treatment is not fast enough with a large volume of effluents. The equipment scheme is designed for a certain volume, and when it is exceeded, sewer water settles much more slowly.

The advantages of Triton septic tanks are in such features as:

• Affordable price.
• Easy installation.
• Due to the use of plastic, it is light in weight.
• Various capacities of septic tanks.
• Variety of models.
• Efficient cleaning.
• A simple circuit that does not require complex maintenance.
• Made from durable, corrosion-resistant plastic.
• Triton septic tanks are considered the best, according to customer reviews.
• Installation can be done independently.
• The Triton septic tank can be used both for cottages and for cottages.
• The manufacturer offers a wide range of septic tanks.

Triton Plastic has been specializing in the production of septic tanks for a long time. Triton septic tanks are in great demand, especially Triton MINI, which is well suited for summer cottages.

Expert advice

When buying and installing Triton septic tanks, you should strictly follow the advice of specialists.

First of all, for the stable operation of septic tanks, it is necessary to carry out professional installation and carry out their regular maintenance and cleaning exactly following the operating rules prescribed by the manufacturer.

Removal of sediment from the septic tank should be carried out at least as often as indicated in the accompanying documentation issued by the manufacturer. Also, for the stable operation of the Triton septic tank, it is desirable to avoid the ingress of various chemical impurities into it. This can not only adversely affect the operation of the septic tank, but also damage the plastic of the case.

In the event that the installation of a Triton-Mini septic tank is carried out in a summer cottage where the presence of people in the winter is not expected, the liquid should be completely pumped out of the tank and filled with ⅓ water. You can find instructions for this procedure in the photos and videos provided on the supplier's website.

Advantages of the Triton series

The design features of the devices of this series provide several advantages that allow you to compete in the construction market:

• democratic price.
  Most homeowners are looking for a budget solution to create a stand-alone sewer. Expensive septic tanks are not included in the cost estimate.
  Low cost will minimize the cost of both installation and maintenance of the installation;
• the presence of models that differ in design and characteristics will allow you to choose a septic tank for the characteristics of the site (read the owner's reviews about the Tank-1 septic tank here).
  The main purpose of the devices is small summer cottages, rural houses, cottages;
• septic tanks "Triton" are non-volatile, so the installation will allow you to get a truly autonomous sewage system;
• the design will allow you to independently carry out the installation of a septic tank (which is better Topas or Astra is written on this page).
  Permanent maintenance is not required.
  It is recommended to pump out the accumulated solid sediment several times a year;
• septic tanks are made from modern polymeric materials that can withstand aggressive environments and are not subject to corrosion.
  The structures do not contain elements that can break during operation. This will ensure long-term use of the septic tank.

Pros and cons of LOS Triton

An analysis of the characteristics of septic tanks shows that they are much more efficient than cesspools, but inferior in terms of the quality of wastewater treatment to energy-dependent biological treatment plants.

Residents of country houses with experience in using Triton septic tanks identified the following advantages:

• ease of installation and maintenance;
• durability and long service life without repair;
• a wide range of models of the required performance;
• tightness and reliability of the polymer construction.

However, one of the main advantages is the relatively low cost of the kits and the possibility of purchasing septic tanks in parts - with or without an infiltrator.

To install the device, it is necessary to dig a pit, equip a concrete base, connect communications and properly backfill - all actions can be done independently, using the instructions from the manufacturer

The disadvantages include an insufficient level of wastewater treatment (this applies to simple models), which entails the need to install additional filter wells and filtration fields, the need for regular cleaning, the inability to install in conditions of low soil freezing in the northern regions.

Most of the advantages and disadvantages of Triton septic tanks are subjective and refer to specific models, often incorrectly chosen.

Principle of operation

Any device from Triton is equipped with biological filters with aerobic bacteria. They purify moisture, saturating it with useful substances, which allows using the liquid as a fertilizer for the soil. Before the purification of water is carried out by biofilters, it settles in the storage tank for several days.

When the liquid enters the container, it is immediately cleared of solid particles using gravity. This is called post-cleaning. In most cases, this step takes 1 to 2 days. Preliminarily purified water enters the next section through the infiltrator, passing through several mechanical filters. Moisture stays here for several hours. After that, it is forcibly pumped into the next compartment with bacteria, and if the level of purification meets the requirements, the installation sends water to the ground. The soil filter stops residual particles that were not eliminated in the previous steps.

Advantages of Triton:

1. Easy to install and maintain;
2. Availability. The price of a Triton-Micro septic tank is $ 200 without installation;
3. Efficiency and high performance. During the day with intensive work, the simplest system can clean up to 500 liters, more advanced models - up to 1000. These are very high rates, especially if fast work is required;
4. All models can be operated in the harsh conditions of the Russian climate. Production takes into account the deep level of soil freezing, high groundwater and other problems.

Photo - characteristics

But, Triton septic tanks also have certain disadvantages:

1. The first settling can take up to 3 days, minimum - 2 days in the Mini model;
2. The minimum distance from the facade should be from 6 meters, from the nearest water source - 50. This is a mandatory requirement, but not every yard has the opportunity to install a drive at such a distance;
3. The need for additional cleaning once per semester. Sludge, solids and other debris clog filters and reduce efficiency.Therefore, you need to periodically clean the system. Also, the microbiological filter needs to be supplemented with bacteria.

The Importance of Infiltration

According to sanitary standards, the effluents that come out of the septic tank in question cannot be discharged into the soil. Often, those who do not equip the infiltrator, in order to save money, then write angry reviews that Triton exudes a smell and ruined the soil. If you do not mount an additional cleaning system, then this is exactly what will happen.

The infiltrator itself is an additional system that helps clean drains. It consists of:

• Tanks without a bottom, on the dome of which a pipe is launched. Drains come out of it, which have been cleaned in a septic tank.
• The main filter element is a sand and gravel cushion, and drains are sprayed onto it.

Septic Triton: lineup

The body of the Triton septic tank is made of low-pressure polyethylene. This means that the material is durable, resistant to stress, does not break under pressure, withstands negative temperatures (up to -30 ° C), that is, the Triton septic tank is not afraid of freezing and can be successfully used in a seasonal dacha.

One of the models in the process of installation

Triton Mini

For small cottages with accommodation / stay of 1-2 people, large volumes are not needed. According to the norms, the consumption in the city per person is 200 liters per day. In the country, this figure is much less - 120-150 liters is enough with a large margin. Again, according to the standards, the volume of the septic tank should be equal to three times the volume of drains per day. In the country, even when there are 2-3 people, you will not use up more than 700 liters in three days. Based on these considerations, the Triton Mini septic tank was designed. Its characteristics are:

• volume - 750 liters;
• processing per day - 400 liters of wastewater;
• volley discharge - no more than 500 liters;
• dimensions 1250*820*1700 mm;
• weight - 85 kg.

Scheme of installation of a septic tank Triton Mini

This is a single chamber septic tank. Since the degree of processing in one chamber is very low - about 20-30%, a biofilter is installed in the second part of the body. This is a floating type device, in the tank there is a biological backfill, which improves cleaning. From the exit of the Triton Mini septic tank, drains are diverted to one of the filtration devices, you can - to the infiltrators offered by the same manufacturer.

The container contains a biologically active backfill. It is necessary for better processing of effluents

Even with such a device, the degree of wastewater treatment will be very low. Filtering devices will become clogged very soon, you will have to change everything or build new ones. The situation can be improved by the use of biological products that improve processing. But they must be selected carefully - they must multiply without oxygen (anaerobic bacteria). Usually on the packaging it is written that they are suitable for cesspools and septic tanks of the classic type.

Triton Micro

Triton Micro has an even smaller volume. This is generally one filtering chamber without any additional devices. The degree of wastewater treatment will be very low - no more than 20-25%. If such drains are diverted to filtration fields, then they (the fields) will stink mercilessly. The way out is the same - to add bacteria, but it is better to put a three-chamber septic tank (or three such single-chamber ones connected by overflow pipes, but it will come out more expensive).

Septic tank Triton Micro - appearance and installation example

Parameters of the septic tank Triton Micro:

• volume - 450 liters;
• processing per day - 150 liters of wastewater;
• volley discharge - no more than 180 liters;
• dimensions 860*1500 mm;
• weight - 40 kg.

In general, this version of the septic tank without modification will not give a normal level of wastewater treatment. It can only be recommended for use with a solid post-treatment system, and its device will cost much more than buying a three-chamber septic tank of small volumes.

An example of the organization of sewerage at a high GWL

Another option for using Micro-Triton is as a storage well when installing a more complex cleaning system, when after the septic tank exits a storage well is installed, and from it, using a fecal or drainage pump, it is pumped to bulk filtration fields. Such a device is necessary at a high level of groundwater and poor conductivity of soils.

Triton Microbe

Apparently taking into account the low degree of purification by the Micro model, the manufacturers removed it from production, replacing it with the Microb model. This option has more powerful fins and two chambers, and the inlet pipe is also brought out higher, which is more convenient during installation. New miniseptics for summer cottages - Triton Microbe

New miniseptics for summer cottages - Triton Microbe

Two cameras are better than one, even though it's split vertically. It should be noted that in the usual configuration, a neck 300 mm high is welded (on request, they can make 500 mm high). A low neck is not always convenient. Sewer pipes should go from the house at a slope of about 2 cm per meter. According to sanitary standards, septic tanks should be located quite far from the house. If it is at a distance of no more than 10 meters, this neck is enough for you (the inlet pipe takes at least 10 cm). If not, you will have to be smart or ask to weld a higher neck.

A relatively low neck is also bad because the thickness of the earth layer above the septic tank decreases. Therefore, the insulation of its upper part during installation should be of better quality.

Camera division

This model already has several variations - for different volumes.

Cleaning in chambers

The mini Triton septic tank works similarly to other LOS models (local treatment plant). The procedure for cleaning it is as follows:

• Drains from the house enter the first chamber, where they settle. As a result, solid particles precipitate. Insolubles float up.
• Upon reaching a certain level for overflow (moreover, it must be in the first chamber, the drains must be at least 3 days), the clarified liquid passes through the biofilter. Its main component is floating bioparticles. Due to the specific design of such a filter, additional mechanical cleaning also occurs.
• Septic tank Triton mini - functions with anaerobic bacteria, that is, those that can live without oxygen.
