Coalescing separator KPE 03 - polyethylene, maximum throughput 3 l/s, PE nozzles - AQUAFIX 10PE 383503

Wastewater Protection for Medium-Traffic Facilities

This device is dedicated to the separation of mineral and organic contaminants from rainwater and process water, where the flow does not exceed 3 liters per second. Thanks to the use of polyethylene (PE) as the main material, the construction is characterized by resistance to chemical corrosion and durability in difficult soil conditions. It is a universal solution – it will work well both in internal installations and outside buildings, giving installers flexibility in selecting the location without the need for additional protective covers.

Construction and Load Resistance

The main element is a basin made of polyethylene, which ensures tightness and resistance to chemical substances present in wastewater. A key aspect for road safety is the strength of the cover, which has been adapted to withstand loads up to 400 kN. This means the device can be safely installed under roads for heavy vehicles, parking lots, or maneuvering areas where high wheel loads occur. The total weight is approximately 107 kg, which facilitates transport and manual installation or using simple lifting devices, while simultaneously guaranteeing stability in the ground.

In practice, this means several specific benefits for the project:

• PE material eliminates the risk of corrosion and does not require painting or anti-corrosion maintenance.
• Load capacity of 400 kN allows direct installation under public roads and heavy vehicle parking lots without additional reinforced concrete.
• Flow rate of 3 l/s makes it an ideal choice for smaller car washes, gas stations, or multi-bay garages.
• The AQUAFIX 10PE nozzle system guarantees quick and tight pipe installation without the need for additional gaskets or adhesives.

Application and Operating Principles

The separator effectively removes mineral oils and organic fats from water before its discharge into the sewer system or retention tanks. It operates on the principle of gravitational phase separation – lighter substances float to the surface and are retained in the sedimentation chamber, while cleaner water continues further into the installation. Thanks to this, it meets environmental protection requirements for facilities such as:

• Low-capacity car washes,
• Fuel stations (smaller stations),
• Underground and above-ground garages,
• Mechanical workshops and production halls with smaller amounts of exhaust gases.

The device height is 1040 mm, allowing installation even with limited excavation depth, while maintaining the required active volume (approx. 1270 liters). AQUAFIX 10PE nozzles facilitate integration with the PE sewer system, ensuring joint tightness without the risk of leaks due to ground settlement. This is a solution for installers seeking proven equipment from the manufacturer Hauraton Polska Sp. z o.o., which does not require complicated service procedures in daily operation.
