NON-MECHANICAL
FLOW EQUALIZATION
The patented design of the Bio-Kinetic system provides
non-mechanical flow equalization for the Singulair Model 960
wastewater treatment plant. Equalization reduces incoming
hydraulic surges (e.g. typical shower of 10 minutes duration,
bathtub discharge of 5 minutes duration, clothes washer
discharge of 2 minutes duration and dishwasher discharge
of 2 minutes duration) throughout the system. The flow
equalization provided by the Bio-Kinetic system causes
wastewater to be held upstream of the final outlet during
hydraulic surges, which preserves treatment integrity and
enhances system operation. The actual rate of equalization
varies and depends upon specific loading patterns and the
duration of each flow surge. At the design loading pattern
like the one used during the NSF/ANSI Standard 40
performance evaluation, the Model 960-500 GPD system
equalizes all flow an average of 48%. As a result, hydraulic
surges and periods of high wastewater flow are automatically
reduced to protect the environment and all treatment plant
processes on a demand use, as needed, basis.
BLUE CRYSTAL
®
RESIDENTIAL
DISINFECTING TABLETS
If local regulations require, an initial supply of Blue Crystal
disinfecting tablets will be placed in the Bio-Kinetic system
chlorine feed tube(s) at system start-up. Specifically
formulated for use in the Singulair system, Blue Crystal
disinfecting tablets provide efficient and reliable disinfection
when effluent chlorination is desirable. Manufactured from
calcium hypochlorite, Blue Crystal disinfecting tablets
provide effective, economical bacteria killing power. Liquid
entering the Bio-Kinetic system contacts the installed Blue
Crystal disinfecting tablets, just downstream of the
equalization ports. A fully charged feed tube will last an
average of six months. During each semi-annual inspection,
your local distributor’s service technician will check system
operation, the rate of tablet consumption and install tablets
during routine service inspections.
NOTE: USEPA guidelines state “On the average, satisfactory
disinfection of secondary wastewater effluent can be obtained
when the chlorine residual is 0.5 ppm after 15 minutes
contact.” Retention time must comply with the controlling
regulatory jurisdiction.
CAUTION: The improper handling of Blue Crystal tablets
may cause personal injury or property damage. Keep
out of the reach of children and do not allow the tablets
or feed tube to contact skin, eyes, or clothing. Tablets
may be fatal if swallowed and tablet dust is irritating to
the eyes, nose and throat. Do not handle the tablets or
feed tubes without first carefully reading the product
container label, MSDS information and the handling
and storage instructions. Mixing of chemicals may cause
a violent reaction leading to fire or explosion. For
additional information about Blue Crystal tablets contact
your local distributor.
BIO-NEUTRALIZER
®
DECHLORINATION
TABLETS
In environmentally sensitive areas, environmental regulations
may require the use of Bio-Neutralizer dechlorination tablets.
Manufactured as an efficient and dependable means to
chemically neutralize both free and combined chlorine,
Bio-Neutralizer dechlorination tablets provide consistent
reduction or elimination of chlorine residual without
unnecessarily reducing the level of dissolved oxygen in the
treatment system effluent. Bio-Neutralizer dechlorination
tablets utilize a unique chemical mixture for chlorine
reduction and environmental protection. As liquid passes
through the final discharge zone of the Bio-Kinetic system,
the flow contacts the installed Bio-Neutralizer tablets and
residual chlorine is removed from the system effluent. A
fully charged Bio-Neutralizer feed tube will last an average
of six months. During each semi-annual inspection, your
local distributor’s service technician will check system
operation, the rate of tablet consumption and install tablets
during routine service inspections.
CAUTION: Bio-Neutralizer tablets or feed tubes should
not be mixed with Blue Crystal tablets. Do not handle
the tablets or feed tubes without first carefully reading
the product container label, MSDS information and the
handling and storage instructions. For additional
information about Bio-Neutralizer tablets contact your
local distributor.
NO OWNER MAINTENANCE
The Singulair system is inspected and serviced by a local
licensed, factory-trained distributor, therefore, no owner
maintenance is required during the warranty period. The
Singulair system does not require pumping as often as a
septic tank. Under normal use only the pretreatment
chamber should be pumped. How often pumping is
necessary depends on system use. The local Singulair
distributor will inspect the aeration chamber contents and
plant effluent at six month intervals to determine if the
pretreatment chamber is discharging excessive solids. Every
three years, the pretreatment chamber should be inspected.
The pretreatment chamber will normally require pumping at
three to five year intervals. Contact your local distributor
prior to tank pumping for complete information on removal of
equipment, access to individual chambers, coordination of
services and proper disposal of tank contents. A tank
pumping service licensed by the local regulatory agency
must be used for removal and disposal of tank contents.
The tank pumper should consult with local authorities to
determine the proper disposal method.
If a period of intermittent use, or an extended period of
non-use of the Singulair system is anticipated, contact the
local distributor for instructions. Your local licensed
distributor has comprehensive Singulair service instructions
and has been factory-trained in troubleshooting procedures.
Contact your local distributor if you require service or
information regarding tank pumping.
