Sizing by Flow Rate It is reccomended that HGI’s such as Endura® interceptors are sized by flow rate. The use of a flow control with a Hydromechanical Grease Interceptor is considered mandatory. Without a properly sized flow control, the discharge rate through into the interceptor may exceed the design rating of the unit, causing lower efficiencies and increase the risk of grease, passing into the downstream system.

Frequently Asked Questions Sizing by Capacity Capacity: Based on the volume of wastewater discharge (gallons) into the interceptor expressed as discharge fixture units (DFU’s). DFU’s are identified in the currently published issue of Uniform Plumbing Code Ch.7 based on occupancy or use. International Plumbing Code (IPC) also references/uses DFU’s Example: Commercial sink with food waste with 1-1/2”...

150 gallons of grease capacity before cleaning is “required”. On average this translates to approximately 8-10 weeks on average. Now compare this to an XL100 HGI. Based on the independent third party testing to determine qualified performance & efficiency, the Endura® XL100 has a significantly smaller 257gallon total capacity, but a qualified efficiency exceeding 98%.
Is this true? Yes it is, however Endura® XL is specifically designed to address this challenge. If you look at XL tanks from the end you will see that the top is narrower than the bottom and that there are along the sides corrugations that are closed toward the bottom of their profile. This profile is the reverse of an ice cube sitting in a freezer tray.
