Rainwater harvesting and filtration

This diverter features a butterfly valve with a TPU seal, allowing you to choose whether to divert rainwater for dispersion or direct it into your tank. 

With the filtering unit, you can trap debris, preventing your tank from filling up with leaves or other small particles from trees.

I used ASA for all parts and for gasket of butterfly valve i used TPU. 

 I made it 3 years ago and it still works great!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  This model is for rain gutter that have 80 diameter   !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                     What do I need to assemble everything?

For switcher:

           4    Inox screw M3x10mm and 4 Self-tapping bushings or heat-insert bushings

           1     O-ring 17x20,5 mm

           1     O-ring  24,5x28 mm

           1     Square bar 8x8mm lenght 150mm

For filter body:

           1     Inox screw M3x15 for bracelet

For filter :

If you want to apply a filtrering mesh, you Just take a mesh, cut it to size, and print the object so that the area designed for inserting the mesh can be detached. Afterwards, you will need two M3x8 countersunk screws with their respective bushings.If you think the mesh filter is unnecessary, you can simply use the modifier and create a honeycomb pattern of your choice.

                                                      How to fit the switcher ?

To install the switcher, you need to cut the gutter to 170mm. First, place the connector on the gutter. Second, fit the switcher body, and finally, insert the connector into the switcher

Using a hole saw, you need to make an 80mm hole. Then, insert the filtration unit and secure it with a clamp
