The operating principle is based on the difference in density between the various types of matter within. Light liquids with a density of0.85, rise to the surface while heavy matter with a density of 1.1 settle down in the apparatus.
Equipment
Sludge trap
This compartment, located upstream the interceptor, is designed to trap heavy matter (sludge). Its volume complies with Standard NF EN 858-1.
Lamellar coalescing cell: turbulent movement
In order to improve the interceptor output, a coalescing filter is used so that the discharge level is below 5 mg/l. The effluent goes from the lower part to the upper part of the compartment, which helps the oil to float. The oil particles that are not dense enough to rise to the surface, stick to the back of the plates and form a film that is pushed upwards by the current.
Automatic closing floater
An automatic obturation system is fitted on each machine in this range to prevent any discharge into the environment.
Its operating principle also replies on the difference of density between water (density 1) and light liquids (density 0.85). In this way, the floater of the automatic obturator, rated at the density of 1, floats in the water but sinks in the oils.
