Abstract
An outlet assembly for a liquid distribution system of the type whereby liquid is to be deposited onto a treatment bed (13) from one or more apertured distributor pipes (14) connected to a rotary (or linear) supply head (10) the assembly comprising longitudinally spaced apertures (15) opening upwardly in the pipe wall and clamped to the pipe over each aperture (15) a distribution tray (16) extending generally transversely but angularly from the pipe and having a generally horizontal surface (17) with upright side walls (18) so that liquid may flow upwardly through the apertures (15) and be channelled outwardly along the trays to be deposited from the outer ends thereof. The larger than usual apertures (15) ensure that no blockages occur from solids within the liquid, whilst uniform and constant distribution is ensured.
