OPERATION
After start-up, the only operational adjustment on the
Alpha is the inlet flow control valve (see Figures 1 & 2).
Your sump pump flowrate may exceed the Alpha’s oil/
water separation capacity.
Throttle the valve on the
Alpha until the incoming water is the same flow as the
recycle water through the recycle line going back to the
collection pit.
This will give adequate flow through the ozone injector
to meter the ozone generator properly (see Figure 16).
If at anytime the incoming flow is adjusted, the ozone
generator must be metered again.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
AND SERVICE
Periodic Maintenance
Oil Skimmer Collection Tank
Monitor the level of oil in the oil skimmer. Empty
as needed.
Solids Removal
Settled solids are collected in the inlet solids col-
lection chamber. The solids must be removed peri-
odically as dictated by the dirt load coming into the
machine. The procedure for removal is as follows.
• Disconnect the machine from the electrical power
source.
• Before opening the drain valve, be sure the
flow of solids is directed to the collection pit.
Open each drain valve individually and remove
the solids.
• Remove the vertical coalescing pack (see Figures
5 & 6 for location). To remove, lift with the nylon
strap that surrounds the coalescing pack.
• After removal of the vertical coalescing pack,
hose out the remaining solids in the bottom of the
chamber.
• Replace the vertical coalescing pack and close
valve.
NOTE: The vertical coalescing pack can
be cleaned, if desired, by washing it with a garden
hose or a pressure washer.
• If the solids chamber cannot be drained back to
the collection pit, you can use the WATER MAZE
Pit Cleaner and Sludge Cart for the solids removal
on the Alpha 3100. You can use a shop vac for
the Alpha 1500.
Service
Check the electrical cords to assure they are safe,
with no damage or cracking.
Check the inlet and outlet hoses for leaks or damage.
Oil Sheen Filter Pack
The oil sheen filter pack should be removed and the
media replaced once a year or as needed (Alpha
3100).
Remove the filter pack (suitcase like filter, see Figure
6 for location) by removing the retaining bracket and
lifting up with the handles on the filter, as shown
below.
Figure 10
Slide the filter case back into the Alpha.
• The slots on top of the case should be facing the
inlet.
• Push the filter firmly down and replace the retain-
ing bracket.
NOTE: If the filter media needs servicing prior to the
yearly change out, the filter can be removed and separat-
ed. Periodic cleaning of the filter media can be performed
by using a hot water pressure washer. NEVER clean the
filter with detergents as this will cause a deterioration of
the media’s ability to attract oil and dirt.
