Oil Water Separators (OWS)
Oil Water Separators (OWS)
Separation efficiency for the most stringent discharge requirements.
Separation Efficiency
The Oil Water Separator (OWS) is modular, engineered oil/water separator that can easily be integrated with other equipment to meet the industrial user’s needs.
The treatment system’s single stainless steel tank assembly saves valuable floor space and time during installation. Designed to continuously skim the water’s surface to remove even the faintest trace of oil. Once intercepted, the oil is then transferred to a containment compartment where it can be removed easily. A sludge draw-off valve is located on the back of the unit where collected solids can be discharged.
The OWS is the perfect solution for very low (PPM) discharge level situations required for industrial plants, commercial garages, and cleaning applications. The OWS 500 is capable of delivering discharges under 10 PPM.
OWS benefits:
- Simple, above-ground installation.
- No filters, or chemicals – simple design.
- Continuous skim ensures separation.
- Easy modification allows wash water to be recycled.
- Simple, minimal maintenance.
- For industrial plants, commercial garages, and cleaning applications.
