A multislot divisor is a device that divides water flow into equal parts, with one part collected in a tank. The USDA Handbook 224 contains plans for construction of multislot divisors fabricated from steel. With minor modifications, multislot divisors were fabricated from plastic. Performance tests were conducted on plastic and metal multislot divisors. Test results showed that plastic can be used as an alternative to steel without jeopardizing the multislot divisor's accuracy in equally dividing flow. However, four years after field installation, more than half of our plastic multislot divisor and plastic tank set-ups needed repairs. We recommend, therefore, the use of metal instead of plastic multislot divisors, unless strong attachments of plastic multislot divisors with plastic tanks are designed.
