Abstract:
Disclosed herein, are gravity-based sewer bypass systems and related methods for diverting sewage fluid from an upstream sewer pit to a discharge site lower than the upstream sewer pit, via a pipe including an above-ground portion. A sensor external to the pipe is used to determine the sewage fluid level in the upstream sewer pit and accordingly regulate the outflow of sewage fluid at the discharge site.

Claim (Index 5):
The sewer bypass system of  claim 3 , wherein the flow control valve comprises an actuator, configured to regulate the opening and closing of a valve member of the flow control valve; and\n wherein the controller is configured to instruct the actuator to open the valve member as function of a difference between the measured sewage fluid level and a lower threshold level such that a degree of opening of the valve member increases with the difference, and wherein (i) if the sewage fluid level drops to, or below, the lower threshold level, the valve member is shut, and (ii) if the sewage fluid level rises to, or above, an upper threshold level, the valve member is fully opened.
