Grease Interceptor
FEATURES
Wade 5000-5100 series interceptors are PDI (Plumbing & Drainage Institute) certified. All are
equipped with a one-piece cover secured with machine screws. A soft elastomeric gasket is
attached to the body of the interceptor to prevent odor from escaping. An air relief is provided to
eliminate siphonage and each unit is furnished with a flow control device to insure it will perform to
its rated capacity.
OPERATION
Waste water draining to the interceptor passes through the flow control device which regulates the
velocity to a controlled rate. As water enters the interceptor, the baffle arrangement reduces
turbulence to allow efficient separation. The grease, as separation occurs, floats to the top and is
accumulated. The waste water, relieved of contaminates, continues to flow through the trap and into
the drainage system. See diagram.

Page 6: Installation Location
If high concentrates of solids are anticipated, the installation of a solids interceptor is recommended. Installation Location The interceptor should be located as close as possible to the source of grease. Piping to the interceptor could become clogged if the liquid cools prior entering the interceptor. 6 Wade Drains ‐ 11910 CR492, Tyler, TX, 75706 ‐ Phone: 800‐638‐9537 Fax: 888‐879‐9233 ‐ www.wadedrains.com 3‐29‐17 ... -
Page 7: Maintenance
Cleaning (5000 and 5100 Series) The frequency of cleaning is determined by the use load factor and the capacity of the installed interceptor. An ideal cleaning cycle can be established after the unit has been in operation for several weeks. - Page 8 Cleaning (5103 Series) Semi-Automatic Interceptor To assist in the maintenance and cleaning process, Wade offers a unit incorporating a top draw-off port for grease removal. The cover has an accumulating hood to capture the liquid grease and funnel into the draw off port. Cleaning can easily be performed by following the steps listed: 1.
- Page 9 Wade offers three different kinds of extensions: integral, bolt on and cover shrouds. An integral extension is specified by expanding the "H" dimension on the interceptor.
- Page 10 Wade’s nationwide network of manufacturer's representatives stock adjustable extensions for immediate shipment to jobsites when these situations occur. The extension is adjustable and is secured to the interceptor similar to a fixed extension. After bolting the extension to the interceptor, the top is adjustable to grade.
