Z1182 SOLIDS INTERCEPTOR – OPERATION and MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
SIZING
The Z1182 side access stainless steel solids interceptor is designed
for suspended or under sink installations where there are height
restrictions for a top removal solids interceptor. This unit is furnished
with a 2" [51 mm] no-hub high inlet and low outlet on each side for
left-hand or right-hand installation. (Note: Cap the side not used.) The
interceptor is capable of handling a maximum flow rate of 35 GPM.
DESIGN
The Zurn Z1182 Solids Interceptor is designed to recover food waste
from sinks, garbage grinders, and dishwashers. This is accomplished
through the principal of screening. The food wastes are retained in
the inlet side of the unit by a perforated removable drawer.
OPERATION
The wastewater flows from the inlet piping into the interceptor, passing
through the perforated drawer attached to the gasketed latching cover,
then exits the interceptor to the sanitary drain system. The waste
material is trapped in the perforated drawer and not allowed to pass
through to the outlet piping of the drain system.
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning should be done on a regular basis, either before or after the
perforated drawer becomes clogged. Remove the drawer and clean
out all debris. Hose off the drawer screen. Make certain the sealing
