    Developed by Zurn Green Turtle, Proceptor separators achieve maximum removal treatment efficiency of free oil, grease and suspended solids from wastewater flows because of its unique hydraulic flow patterns. The controlled hydraulic flow patterns further ensure captured contaminants will not scour or resuspend.

    PROCEPTOR OWNER'S MANUAL 1.4 OPERATION Wastewater enters the unit through an inlet drop pipe, typically a 4" or 6" PVC sewer pipe, which discharges the wastewater below the normal liquid surface in the tank (see Figure 3). The inlet drop pipe is configured to discharge wastewater horizontally along the tank walls.

    PROCEPTOR OWNER'S MANUAL 2 Protecting the Wastewater Collection System Inspect and maintain your Proceptor separator regularly. 2 Be familiar with local regulations that govern the acceptable limits for wastewater from your operation and any other required practices. 3 Be proactive. Source a local plumber, drain cleaning service, licensed separator pumping and disposal operator before you have a plumbing emergency.

    PROCEPTOR OWNER'S MANUAL 2.3 GARAGE BMPs A detailed BMP can be obtained from Petroleum Products Institutes, or your Provincial/State or Municipal Government. Most of these items are geared to keeping oil and other chemicals from going down the drain. Use spill containment protection for acid batteries, solvents, oils, fuels, antifreeze, transmission fluid, brake fluid and any other substances whose discharge into the sewer system is regulated.
  • Page 9 PROCEPTOR OWNER'S MANUAL The distance from the top of grade to the tank bottom will be your reference for measuring solids depth. Make sure you record which units (inches or centimeters) that you are using. A Static Water Level to Floor Level = in or cm (circle one) Make sure the tank is full of water and not backed up.

  • Page 10: Grease/Oil And Solids Levels

    PROCEPTOR OWNER'S MANUAL 3.2 GREASE/OIL AND SOLIDS LEVELS Solids generally settle to the bottom, and grease or oil will float on the top. Solids can block the inlet or outlet if the layer becomes too deep. If grease or oil becomes too deep, the concentrated grease or oil will exit the separator and enter the sewer pipe.

  • Page 11: Maintenance

    PROCEPTOR OWNER'S MANUAL Samples should be taken from mid-liquid depth inside the Proceptor using an underwater grab sampler. Testing is generally done through a laboratory that can check for ‘Total Oil and Grease’ or ‘Mineral Oil and Grease’ (for oil). Testing should be done by a laboratory that is certified by your local municipality.

    PROCEPTOR OWNER'S MANUAL 4.3 TROUBLESHOOTING Inlet blockage: If the drain upstream of the separator backs up, visually check the inlet pipe through the inspection port for a blockage and snake the pipe if necessary. Outlet blockage: If the liquid level within the Proceptor separator rises above normal, visually check the outlet pipe through the inspection port for blockage.

    Figure 5: Proceptor separator with coalescer The Zurn Green Turtle coalescer system is specifically designed for use in a Proceptor separator to assist removing free oil and mechanically dispersed oil. It is comprised of corrugated porous PVC plates mounted in a fiberglass frame within a baffle of the separator.
  • Page 15 Regularly monitor oil and sediment level in your Proceptor separator. When the separator is pumped out, Zurn Green Turtle recommends cleaning the coalescer system at the same time. The coalescer may become plugged up if the loading solids are too high in the influent wastewater. Although this will not affect flow through the separator, it may reduce the oil removal efficiency and expose the Owner/Operator to unnecessary liability.

    • Wired Smartpro version For calibration and installation procedures, please refer to the corresponding alarm manuals on the Info Hub section of the website at zurn.com/tools-resources/green-turtle-info-hub. 5.4 DOUBLE WALL Proceptor separators are available with a secondary wall made from durable fiberglass for added protection against leaks.
  • Page 17 PROCEPTOR OWNER'S MANUAL In holding tanks, the level probe is set at a preset elevation. In the double wall, the level probe is typically installed between the tank walls near the bottom of the tanks, where any potential leak would pool, to give early warning of a leak condition. Maintenance When the monitor sounds, press the acknowledge button to silence the horn, if desired.
