System Performance

  • Separation By Design™ provides the ideal solution for managing liquid accumulations in petroleum containment areas.
  • Initiates operation automatically when water is detected in containment area and shuts down when water is removed.
  • Easy installation inside or outside containment area.
  • Patented Kleerwater coalescer efficiently separates oils and grease from water.
  • In actual operation, unit takes oil and grease waste water concentrations from 44 ppm to <5 ppm, and 3,200 ppm of heavily mixed influent to 8.3 ppm. In a simulated spill test, separator is filled with oil to 10% beyond normal shutoff limit with an effluent not exceeding 5.31 ppm. In a test for total suspended solids, using State of Wisconsin test protocols, Separation By Design™ removes over 95% of 106 micron suspended solids at 25 GPM. Test results available.
  • Heating element keeps pump and separation tank from freezing in cold climates.
  • Unit comes equipped with high oil sensor to activate visual alarm and will shut down system to prevent oil overfill or discharge to ground water.
  • The explosion proof diaphragm pump is designed to minimize agitation of oil and water and provide the required flow rate to accommodate operation parameters.
  • Tanks are UL-142 listed and come with 1 year limited warranty.
