Product catalog summary

Introduction
Surface water drains can discharge into watercourses or underground waters, potentially carrying contaminants like oil, chemicals, or solids. This poses environmental risks, prompting regulatory guidelines for pollution management through Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS). Oil separators play a vital role in preventing oil pollution from these drainage systems.

Separator Standards and Types
Oil separators must adhere to British and European standards (BS EN 858-1 and 858-2). They are categorized into Class I (less than 5mg/l oil concentration) and Class II (less than 100mg/l oil concentration), with options for full retention or bypass separators.

Full Retention Separators
These separators handle the entire flow from drainage systems, suitable for high-risk areas with acceptable short-term flooding, typically managing rainfall intensities of 65mm/hr.

Bypass Separators
Designed for areas with low risk of large spills, these separators manage flows from rainfall rates up to 6.5mm/hr, allowing higher flows to bypass.

Forecourt Separators
Specifically for petrol stations, these separators manage maximum spillages, including potential losses from road tankers.

Selecting the Right Separator
Selection is based on oil contamination risk and discharge type, with guidance available from the Environment Agency's Pollution Prevention Guideline 03.

Bypass Separator NSBD Range
Used in areas like car parks and roadways, these separators treat 10% of peak flow and meet BS EN 858-1 standards.

Full Retention Separator NS Range
Suitable for high-risk areas like fuel depots, these separators treat the entire flow and include features like oil and silt storage and automatic closure devices.

Washdown & Silt Separator Range
Designed for areas like car washes, these units prevent emulsifiers from entering Class I or II units and are easy to install and maintain.

Specifications and Features
The document details specifications for a forecourt separator at petrol stations, highlighting features like oil storage volume, a coalescer for Class I units, an automatic closure device, and an oil alarm system to intercept hydrocarbon pollutants.

Installation Guidelines
Installation requires a concrete base slab with concrete or granular backfill, and a suitable cover slab for trafficked areas. Compliance with Health and Safety Guidance Note HS(G)41 and local authority requirements is necessary.

Application and Performance
Designed for petrol station forecourts, the separator can store up to 7,600 litres of pollutants from fuel delivery tanker spillages, ensuring oil does not exit during major spillages.

Alarm Systems
Per BS EN 858-1 and Environment Agency PPG3, separators must have an oil level alarm system installed by a qualified technician, offering visual and audible alarms with a telemetry option.

Surface water drains normally discharge to a watercourse orindirectly into underground waters (groundwater) via asoakaway. Contamination of surface water by oil, chemicals orsuspended solids can cause these discharges to have aserious impact on the receiving water.The Environment Regulators, Environment Agency, Englandand Wales, SEPA, Scottish Environmental Protection Agency inScotland and Department of Environment & Heritage inNorthern Ireland, have published guidance on surface waterdisposal, which offers a range of means of dealing withpollution both at source and at the point of discharge...
