1. GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1. Introduction
Dear customer,
We are pleased that you decided to purchase one of our products which will certainly
completely match your requirements. We wish you a smooth and successful installation and
operation. We try to keep our quality standards as high as possible therefore we are open for
your feedback on any possible improvements.
Incoming greasy wastewater enters the grease separator through a unique inlet module which
creates the circular flow path. As water passes through the separator, grease particles, lighter
than water, are driven upwards by gravity and accumulated in the grease collection area on
the water surface. At the same time, solids and other impurities heavier than water settle to
sludge trap at the bottom of the tank. Treated water is discharged through the outlet pipe.
