EPANEL / GREASE SEPARATION

Underground grease separator

Slag separation, separation and promotion,
Centrally arranged below the ground.

Oily wastewater treatment for restaurants, hotels and canteens. The front-end basket catches slag, and the grease in the tank floats and collects. The separated sewage is lifted and discharged by the water pump.

The ground inspection port can be opened to facilitate slag cleaning, oil scooping and water pump maintenance.

01 / HOW IT WORKS

Three-stage processing flow

First intercept the residue and then separate the floating oil.
Finally, the separated sewage is lifted and discharged.

  1. Front basket slag separator

    The catering wastewater first passes through the basket grille, larger residues and debris remain in the basket, and the wastewater continues to enter the rear section.

    Maintenance focus Clean the slag promptly and reset the basket correctly after cleaning.

  2. Oil-water separation box

    Taking advantage of the fact that the density of grease is usually smaller than that of water, the separated grease gradually floats up and accumulates on the water surface of the second part of the oil-water separation box.

    Maintenance focus Manually scoop out the oil regularly and collect it in a special grease collection bucket.

  3. Wastewater upgrading and discharge

    The separated sewage flows into the lifting area, and the water pump lifts the drainage according to the supporting control and debugging settings, and connects to the subsequent drainage system.

    Maintenance focus Check whether the liquid level, pump inlet and drainage are normal.

02 / INSTALLATION & ACCESS

Make every maintenance location accessible

Front basket access port
It is convenient to lift up and put back the basket smoothly, keeping the upper passage clear.
Separator box oil scooping access port
It is convenient to observe the floating oil from outside the inspection port and use special tools to scoop the oil manually.
Lift area water pump inspection port
Reserve space required for water pump extraction, liquid level component inspection and professional maintenance.

The size, burial depth, foundation, anti-floating, backfill and cover bearing capacity shall be carried out according to the project confirmation drawings and civil engineering design. The schematic diagram does not serve as a basis for construction to scale.

03 / ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

Routine maintenance and water pump blockage prevention

Arrange special personnel for frequent inspections,
Slag cleaning, oil scooping and water pump inspections are continuously implemented.

daily inspection

Clean the basket in time

Lift out the basket, drain the water, dump the residue, clean the clogged holes and reset them. Do not remove the basket to continue draining, nor flush the residue back into the grease trap.

Monitor oil accumulation daily

Manual scooping of surface oil slick

Use a long-handled tool to slowly scoop up the floating oil, put it into a grease collection bucket, cover it and transport it away. Avoid vigorous stirring, and the caked grease should be collected in batches.

Follow daily operations

Keep the water pump flowing

Observe the liquid level, drainage capacity and operating sound. The lifting area, pump inlet and liquid level components should be inspected regularly by maintenance personnel, and foreign matter and attached oil should be dealt with in a timely manner.

It is recommended to clean the slag every day, and arrange oil scooping every day in the initial stage, and adjust it according to the drainage volume, slag content and oil accumulation speed; increase the number of inspections during peak periods. Exceptions should be handled immediately if found.

Reduce blockage from the source

Rags, hard lumps and other debris are prohibited from entering the grease trap.

Remove residue before washing dishes. Rags, wet wipes, cleaning balls, plastic bags, tableware, metal parts, large bones and other hard objects should be collected separately, and source interception and basket maintenance should be implemented at the same time.

What should you do when drainage slows down, the liquid level rises, or the water pump makes abnormal noise?

First limit or suspend the relevant water inflow, and contact maintenance personnel to investigate. Before inspection and cleaning, stop the machine and cut off and isolate the power supply to prevent automatic starting of the pump; repeated forced starts or repeated resets are not allowed.

Water pump extraction, impeller removal and electrical inspection are completed by professionals. It is prohibited to enter the underground box or pit by yourself; daily cleaning of slag and oil scooping should be done from outside the ground maintenance port.
