Forecourt Separator Application Forecourt separators are used where oil and petroleum are stored and offloaded. Areas such as petrol filling station forecourts, where there is a risk of spillage of these hydrocarbons into the surface water drainage system. As contaminated water passes through the separator, it is retained long enough to allow pollutants to accumulate on the surface. Carlow Precast forecourt separators are single chamber vessels, resulting in the minimum of turbulence, while maximising retention time. The pollutants are retained within the separator, allowing treated water to discharge via the coalescing filtration unit. In the event of a oil tanker spillage, the capacity of the separator is such that it capable of containing the entire spill from a tanker compartment (7,600 litres) and also ongoing hydrocarbon pollutants. A shut-off valve will ensure containment and an alarm system will ensure the operator takes action to empty the separator. Each forecourt separator features the following: • Oil Storage Capacity • Silt Storage Capacity • Coalescer (Class 1 only) • Automatic Shut-off Valve Materials Carlow Precast forecourt separators are manufactured from 70N concrete with steel fibre reinforcement at 40kg/m3. Larger units contain conventional steel reinforcement as well as steel fibre. Installation The unit should be installed on a level bed of sand, gravel or broken stone. The base of the excavation should be level and free from projecting hard points such as rocks or boulders. The separator is lifted into position by our truck-mounted crane, assuming there is suitable access for our delivery vehicle. Backfilling is commenced as soon as possible after placement of Oil Alarm An oil level alarm is required to be fitted to all separators in accordance with EN 858-1. Carlow Precast can provide alarm & monitoring of all our separator range. • Visual Alarm • On-Site Early Warning & Monitoring • Full Off-site Monitor & Cleaning Service Grease Trap Application Grease traps are used to trap both settled and floating waste material (fat and grease) and separate out from water before entering main drainage systems. The Carlow Precast grease trap is a 3-chamber unit with separate access to each chamber. CARLOW PRECAST Concrete Engineering the separators. In most installations, it is not necessary to backfill around the separator with concrete. Advantages - Ease of installation - Speed of installation - Reduced civil costs-no expensive concrete backfill - Durability and robustness - Inlet/outlet connectors to suit all pipework Accessories Access covers to suit all loadings are available on request. Oil level alarms can be fitted to indicate when the separator requires emptying. They are mounted remotely from the unit and are available with an audible or visual alarm. Off-site monitoring is also available from our technical department. For inspection purposes only. Consent of copyright owner required for any other use.
