Operation

Condensate from the system enters into the centrifugal inlet chamber under pressure
Liquid drops out of the air stream as it impinges on the chamber walls and the vortex generator, draining without turbulence into the primary settlement chamber below
Dirt particles suspended in the condensate will settle to the bottom of the primary settlement chamber and the accumulating condensate will then flow into the main settlement tank
Entrained droplets of oil dispersed in water will rise to the surface due to the lower specific gravity of the oil, eventually coalescing to form a thick layer on the surface
An adjustable oil funnel allows the oil to be continuously skimmed off the surface. Drained oil is collected in the external oil container where it can be disposed of according to legal requirements
Cleaner water taken from the bottom of the tank flows into the carbon stage, through a prefilter, into the top of the carbon bags
Any entrained droplets of oil remaining are then removed by adsorption.
The cleaned water can now be discharged to the foul sewer through the outlet.
