Sand & Grease Interceptor

Local codes and ordinances require installation of clarifiers, sand and grease interceptors to prevent the entrance of heavy industrial solids and oils into the collection system.

 

Clarifiers are usually installed at machine shops and fabricators, while sand and grease interceptors are normally installed at mechanic or repair shops and car washes.

 

The interceptor is so designed that quiescence is achieved allowing sedimentation and flotation. An effluent sampling box is typically installed on the outlet end of these interceptors, allowing for easy inspection and sampling needed to confirm performance.
