| VG-SEP® (Available in marine and industrial models) | |||
VG-SEP®is a two-stage system designed to separate and remove non-soluble oils, solids and entrained air at capacities through 2 gallons per minute. The design of the VG-SEP® utilizes system generated vacuum, differential gravity, coalescence, and filtration to effectively reduce the oil content to 15 PPM or less. The VG-SEP® is a self-contained compact system that requires minimal piping or electrical connections to install. The first stage of the system utilizes vacuum to pull the oily water into the vessel, preventing emulsification of the oil and water. In the first stage, the velocity of the liquid is reduced, causing the oil droplets, which form to separate from the water and rise to top for collection. Inside the first stage the oleophillic (oil attractive) corrugated plate pack collects and promotes the separation of the majority of oil. The water is then pumped to the second stage where solids and oils that did not separate are removed through a coalescing filter. The residual oil collects on the surface of the filter and rises to the top of the second stage and is then returned to the first stage for removal. | |||
