System and apparatus for controlling fluid flow in drainage systems
A fluid control system to control fluid flow within a drainage system is provided that includes a fluid control device configured to couple to an interior wall of a cylindrical structure of the drainage, and a coupling mechanism configured to couple the fluid control device to the interior wall, wherein, while in a resting state, the fluid control device is configured to at least partially cover an aperture of the interior wall. When fluid contacts the fluid control device at a flow rate of at least a flow threshold, the fluid control device is configured to at least partially uncover the aperture of the interior wall. The fluid control device has a spherical shape, wherein a diameter of the fluid control device has a diameter that is greater than or equal to a diameter of the aperture. -17-
