4.9.2 Cleaning the coalescence insert
IMPORTANT
■
Checking and cleaning must be carried out immediately when the H-AL raised water
level message is signalled. As the switching on of the submerged pumps in the pumping
station is blocked by this message, the inflow of waste water into the plant must be
prevented until the emptying process. Otherwise there is a risk of light liquid escaping
from the maintenance opening!
■
Clean the coalescence insert in a tub
■
After completing the cleaning process, dispose of the contents of the tray via the inlet
point of the plant or by an approved disposal company.
■
Any soiling or pollution of the combination weaving must be completely removed.
Cleaning the coalescing material several times
The coalescing material consists of high-quality combination knit (plastic/stainless steel), is very
resistant to ageing and poses no physiological risk. It is therefore generally suitable for repeated
cleaning and use.
Single use
If there are no suitable cleaning possibilities (exceptional case) or if there are other reasons
for this, a single use is also possible in exceptional cases. The soiled coalescence mats are
removed from the support basket and must be disposed of in a sturdy and tightly sealed plastic
bag as special waste that contains grease.
Removing coalescent mats
Each coalescence mat is attached to the top and bottom of the supporting cage using
tensioning straps with Velcro (outside fleece side). They must be removed. The mat can then
be unrolled. The coalescent mats are fixed in reverse order. It is important to ensure that the
coalescent mat is properly wrapped around the supporting cage so that no open passageway
for the waste water is created. The flow through the coalescence mat must be ensured. The
tension band is extremely tear-resistant and must hold the coalescence mat. Care must be taken
that the coalescing mat is not clamped so tightly that it would result in damage to the coalescing
mat. The coalescence mat, the support cage and the tensioning straps are wearing parts. The
tensioning straps should be replaced every five years. The coalescent mats should be replaced
as necessary depending on wear and tear.
