The invention relates to a tank (100) provided with at least one effluent-filling opening and at least two effluent-emptying openings, a bucket capable of tilting between a filling position, in which it can be filled with an incoming effluent through said at least one filling opening, and a discharge position, in which it can discharge the contents thereof through one or more of said emptying openings. According to the invention, the tank (100) includes means for modifying the position of the bucket (200, 200′) so as to change the direction thereof or to enable the replacement thereof with another bucket of a different type. It is thus possible to modify the effluent outlet direction by a simple change in the bucket position. It is also possible to replace a bucket with a bucket of a different type. In this way greater versatility of the adaptation to the connection of the tank on the installation site is afforded.
Tank provided with at least one effluent filling opening and at least two effluent emptying openings, and a bucket mounted so as to tilt between a filling position in which the bucket can be filled with an effluent entering through said or each filling opening and a discharge position in which the contents thereof can be discharged through said or each emptying opening, characterised in that the tank comprises means designed to modify the location of the bucket so as to change the direction of discharge thereof or to enable it to be replaced by another bucket of a different type, wherein at least one mask is placed in the bucket opposite a corresponding emptying opening closed by an obturator (O) in order to keep a distribution distributed in a balanced manner between the other emptying openings.
Tank provided with at least one effluent filling opening and at least two effluent emptying openings, and a bucket mounted so as to tilt between a filling position in which it can be filled with an effluent entering through said or each filling opening and a discharge position in which it can discharge its content through said or each emptying opening, characterised in that the tank comprises means designed to modify the location of the bucket so as to change the direction of discharge thereof or to enable it to be replaced by another bucket of a different type, wherein the tank is enclosed in a second casing intended to be buried and being housed therein so as to be able to modify its relative position with respect to the second casing, wherein shoes are provided at the periphery of the bottom wall of the tank in order to cooperate with runners provided in the second casing forming respectively portions of an arc of a circle around the axis of an effluent supply pipe (Cn) passing through an effluent filling opening.
