ENGINEERING AND INSTALLATION MANUAL General Data Food Grinder Congratulations on your purchase of the Endura Grease It is highly recommended that a solids interceptor be Interceptor. The Endura Grease Interceptor was designed used in conjunction with the grease interceptor, and built to last and comes with a 10-year warranty (valid especially when a food grinder is discharging into the drain only when the warranty card is filled out and returned to the line connected to the grease interceptor. The solids manufacturer). interceptor will prevent the grease interceptor from becoming Proper installation of a grease interceptor is critical to its plugged and will reduce the service intervals of the grease efficient operation. Even the best designed grease interceptor interceptor. If a solids interceptor is not installed, food will not operate efficiently if installed incorrectly.All installation grinder waste must bypass the grease interceptor, as recommendations are subject to the approval of the local rapid accumulation of solid matter will greatly reduce code authority having jurisdiction. the grease interceptor's efficiency, preventing The Endura Grease Interceptor may be installed on the floor, operation in compliance with the rated capacity. partially in the floor, or fully recessed below the floor to best suit the situation. Whichever installation configuration is Piping Connections used, make sure you locate the grease interceptor in an area All Endura Grease Interceptors are manufactured with no hub that allows for ease of maintenance. Placement should allow connections. Standard mechanical joint couplings can be the cover to be easily removed for cleaning. A minimum clearance is required above the top of the Grease Interceptor used to connect the grease interceptor to a metal or plastic to allow removal of the internal baffles for a complete piping system. If the piping system needs to be resized, use cleanout (15/20/25/30 GPM - 12", 50 GPM - 18"). With the appropriate mechanical joint reducers. cover removed, all internal surfaces should be visible.This is necessary not only for access to clean the interceptor,but also Please Note: The Endura Grease Interceptor is made of to inspect the interior for potential problems. Polypropylene,which will not accept solvent weld cement. The Endura Grease Interceptor is marked with "IN and Out" above the connections to ensure the grease interceptor is installed in the right direction. The grease interceptor should be installed as close as possible to the fixture(s)being served, as every foot of piping between the grease source and the interceptor is unprotected and a potential source for grease _ build-up. Installations requiring long runs of pipe [exceeding -`' 25 feet(8m)]to reach the interceptor are to be avoided.This precaution will reduce the possibility of the pipeline becoming �� clogged with grease before reaching the grease interceptor. � / Grease waste lines should be piped at a minimum slope of '' 1/4 inch per foot (6mm per 304mm) to maintain flow in the \iIjJIJIiiIL1 �� drain line. ippo Dishwashers If local codes permit,the Endura Grease Interceptor can be connected to dishwashers. To prevent industrial grade detergents from compromising the efficiency of the system, a separate grease interceptor is recommended for each �� commercial dishwasher. /4II The Plumbing. and Drains Institute (PDI) has done extensive I ,� testing on the effect of hot water on separation, and can 111 I isupport through data,the fact that hot water has little effect on I'�� / separation efficiency. The Environmental Protection Agency 01►j (EPA), in their document EPA 625/1-80-012 (Design Manual: Onsite Wastewater Treatment and Disposal Systems) is I I specific in recommending the use of hot water and proximity to the source to enhance retention of fat oil and grease(FOG).
