General
The Oleopator-C-NST Class I and Class II
light liquid separators do not have an inte-
grated sludge trap. A sludge trap (5) can
be installed upstream of the light liquid
separator to trap sediments before they
enter the separator. The latest ACO Civil

General function of Class I light
liquid separator
Light liquids in the Oleopator-C-NST Class
I light liquid separators are separated out
by a coalescence unit (2) which helps trap
the finest oil drops and coalesce them
together to form larger oil drops capable
of being separated out. This coalescence
unit (2) consists of a cylindrical coales-
cence element centrically positioned
around the float cage. It consists of a PE-
HD supporting basket and usually a single
General function of Class II light
liquid separator
No coalescence unit is required in the
Oleopator-C-NST Class II light liquid sepa-
rators.
Light liquids are exclusively separated out
statically via the flow path and the dwell
time within the separator.
