Working principle SCFB - Self Closing Flood Barrier

	Once the SCFB has been installed, the floating entrenched wall consisting of polyester is practically invisible under normal water level conditions. On top, a stainless steel lid locks up the entrenchment space under same normal conditions.
	Once the water rises to approximately 10 cm beneath the flood level, the basin of the Barrier fills up through a filling-pipe. The polyester wall rises and floats. As soon as the basin is totally filled, the closing-surface will lock the Barrier waterproof.
	Now the water can rise further without flooding the protected area.  Once the water level subsides to a normal level, the basin is drained through drain pipes with one way check valves or by means of a pump. Once the water has left the basin, the wall returns to its resting position within the basin. The lid on top of the wall then closes preventing the inflow of waste or debris.
