Flow is distributed evenly across the whole tank by the deflectors
The grit settles to the bottom of the shallow (1 – 1.5m) tank

A flow of washwater separates the organics from the grit
Which of the below are common problems with cross flow detritors? (Select all that apply)
Build up of solids in corners
Deflectors moved – therefore not promoting an even flow across the complete tank
Flow can cause the detritor to spin too quickly meaning grit doesn't settle
Blockages in organics return chamber
