Zurn Z513 – 9" Square Hinged Heavy-Duty Grate

A 9" square area drain with a hinged, heavy-duty slotted grate over a Dura-Coated cast-iron deep-sump body, complete with bottom outlet, seepage pan, and a combination membrane flashing clamp & frame. Furnished with a suspended sediment bucket for faster clean-outs—ideal for plazas, decks, ramps, and high-traffic hardscapes.

In technical terms, the Z513 is a hinged heavy-duty square top drain that integrates cleanly with waterproofing while adding debris capacity via its deep sump. In plain English: it’s tough, easy to service (thanks to the hinged grate), and built to keep leaves and grit out of your storm line.

Key Features

  • 9" square hinged grate—stay-open service access speeds clean-outs and inspections.
  • Deep-sump cast-iron body with bottom outlet to store debris and protect downstream piping.
  • Seepage pan + combination flashing clamp & frame for a clean waterproofing tie-in.
  • Suspended sediment bucket (furnished) traps sand/leaves before they reach the line.
  • Open area: ~20 in² grate; approx. weight: ~57 lb (by configuration).
  • Standard outlet & sizes: Neo-Loc (NL) compression—3" and 4".

Where Z513 Excels

Specify Z513 for parking decks, campus plazas, entry ramps, and service yards where grit and leaf load are common. The hinged heavy-duty grate resists impact and won’t go missing, while the deep sump and bucket reduce downstream clogging between service intervals.

Installation Highlights

1) Set & Anchor

Place the body at rough elevation; anchor per detail; verify positive slope toward the drain across slab or paver bed.

2) Waterproofing Tie-In

Integrate the seepage pan and clamp/frame with the membrane; protect the assembly during pours and overlays.

3) Commission & Maintain

Hinge open the grate, confirm bucket placement, and schedule seasonal clean-outs—especially before heavy rains or freeze-thaw cycles.

Case Study: University Plaza with Leaf Load

A campus plaza suffered ponding each fall due to heavy leaf drop. The facility team standardized on Zurn Z513 drains (4" NL outlets, -HL hinged locking grates, -VP vandal-proof). The hinged grate let staff clear leaves quickly without removing hardware, while the deep sump & bucket captured fines. Result: faster draw-down after storms and fewer downstream jetting calls through the season.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the advantage of a hinged grate?
It stays attached during service—no loose parts to misplace. Crews can lift, clean, and reseat quickly, reducing labor time and trip hazards.
Which outlet should I specify?
Z513 is commonly furnished with a Neo-Loc (NL) compression outlet in 3" or 4". Confirm outlet, size, and any test-cap (-TC) needs on your submittal.
Is a bucket included?
Yes—the Z513 is furnished with a suspended sediment bucket that traps debris and simplifies clean-outs (verify furnish and any liners like -SS on the submittal).
