CHATOYER SILT CURTAIN SELECTION GUIDE A basic overview categorising how various classes of Silt Curtain may suit different conditions. Page 1 of 6 chatoyerenvironmental.com.au 1300 880 623 sales@chatoyer.com.au Chatoyer has been manufacturing silt curtains since 2008 and have detailed a simple categorisation to assist our clients in selecting an appropriate silt curtain design. Below is a guide showing our suggestions per waterway and the fundamentals of each design class. Suggested Silt Curtain Still Water River / Port Skirt Depth 1-2m 2-6m 6-12m >12m 1-2m 2-6m 6-12m >12m Class 1 50 mm Float Width Class 2 100 mm Float Width 150 mm Float Width Class 3 150 mm Float Width 200 mm Float Width Heavy Duty External HDPE Floats Harbour Open Water / Ocean Skirt Depth 1-2m 2-6m 6-12m >12m 1-2m 2-6m 6-12m >12m Class 1 50 mm Float Width Class 2 100 mm Float Width 150 mm Float Width Class 3 150 mm Float Width 200 mm Float Width Heavy Duty External HDPE Floats Class 1: Ideal for short term use in calm water states. Class 2: Medium risk applications with moderate wind and/or water forces such as rivers and calm harbours. Class 3: Suitable for harbour and open water sea states. Skirt depths up to 20m. Heavy Duty: Consultation is required. This is an engineered Silt Curtain designed for long term deployment and rough conditions. For Further Information: Silt Curtain Design and Quotation Guide Silt Curtain Design Questionnaire at page 7 of this guide. IMPORTANT NOTICE: This is an informational guide only. Configurations are determined by known hydrodynamic conditions such as tidal movement, wind velocity and wave height. Chatoyer Environmental does not recommend a purchase decision be made solely by referencing this chart. Advice should be obtained from project specific guidelines and environmental experts to determine Silt Curtain design requirements.
