washing waters to the separator, but not straight to the outflow connector, or
alternately wash the filter in a place where the dirty washing water can be properly
taken care of.
5.
Assemble the filter and install it back into the separator, making sure it is well in its
place.
6.
Fill the separator immediately with water to ensure its effective operation from the
very beginning. Also, if the ground water level is high around the separator, filling
will reduce the influence of the buoyant force caused by the ground water.
7.
The probes of the SET 112 oil alarm must always be cleaned, when oil waste is
drained or skimmed. If necessary, wash the probes with mild detergent (e.g. dish
washing liquid.
8.
It is recommended to keep a service log of all draining and maintenance operations.
All maintenance operations concerning the separator should be entered in this log.

Maintenance of the separator tank
1.
The separator tank should be emptied and its condition checked thoroughly at least
every five years (EN 858 - Separator systems for light liquids). In this case, the
following should be checked: tightness of the system, condition of the body, inner
surfaces of the tank, condition of inner structures, probes and probe cables,
installations and the operation of the alarm system.
2.
Drain the separator tank for inspection and remove the filters from the separator.
3.
Clean the inside of the tank with tap water by using a high pressure washer. Drain
the cleaning water completely from the separator with the suction hose of the
container truck before checking the tank.
4.
Check the tightness of the separator, condition of the separator body, inner surface
of the tank and the condition of inner structures. Also check the condition of the
coalescing unit and its gaskets as well as the alarm probes.
5.
Fill the separator immediately with water to ensure its effective operation from the
very beginning. Also, if the ground water level is high around the separator, filling
will reduce the influence of the buoyant force caused by the ground water. The
filling of the separator with clean water after cleaning will restore the operation of
the probes and prevent false alarms.
