Product catalog summary
Introduction
ACO Building Drainage offers a range of drainage solutions, focusing on grease management systems to tackle fats, oils, and grease (FOGs) in drainage systems. The document discusses the necessity for effective grease management, available systems, and product specifications.
Need for Fat, Oil, and Grease Management
FOGs can solidify in drainage systems, causing blockages and health hazards. Legislation mandates FOG management at the source, enforced by local authorities.
When to Use a Grease Management System
These systems are crucial in environments with prevalent FOGs, such as kitchens. Some FOGs form stable emulsions unsuitable for gravity separators, and starch-heavy foods can also cause blockages.
Choosing a Grease Management System
The document compares biological grease traps and gravity grease separators, detailing their operation, maintenance, and installation. Biological traps are compact, while gravity separators require periodic maintenance.
Separator Process Overview
Gravity grease separators allow FOGs to float and solids to sink, requiring periodic waste removal. The document specifies design and maintenance options.
Selecting a Gravity Grease Separator
Selection involves assessing wastewater contents, determining separator size per BS EN 1825 standards, and installation location. Detailed steps and calculations are provided.
Product Specifications
The catalogue includes technical data for ACO grease separators like ACO Lipumax P, ACO ECO-FPI, and ACO ECO-JET series, describing benefits, technical data, and accessories.
Installation Recommendations
Guidance is provided for installing below-ground and free-standing separators, emphasizing proper setup for optimal performance.
Operation and Maintenance
General information on system start-up, maintenance, and disposal procedures is outlined, highlighting the need for regular checks and servicing.
Conclusion
ACO Building Drainage offers grease management solutions to meet regulatory requirements and ensure efficient drainage system operation, with guidance on selecting, installing, and maintaining these systems.
