SAFETY FIRST! ALL ACCESS COVERS SHALL BE
FULLY AND COMPLETELY SECURED (all bolts in place
and tightened accordingly) at the completion of
maintenance procedures, regardless of if the cover
was accessed or not. Missing bolts shall be reported to
management and replaced immediately.
Ensure that any operatives or employees that attend to the
grease interceptor are adequately protected. As a minimum
it is recommended that protective gloves, eyewear and a
mask are provided and used.
Where a third party contractor or service is responsible
for the regular maintenance of the interceptor (strongly
recommended) it is their responsibility not only to ensure
that their own protective practices and procedures are
maintained and followed, but that they also protect those
with access to the vicinity of the interceptor when it is
Air Balanced Operation:
Endura® XL is designed to function based on a balance air environment.
This feature ensures that the high operating eciency is maintained.
During the maintenance of your interceptor, it is important to check
that the breather hole in the outlet vent (see diagram) is unobstructed.
The smallest restriction can drastically impact the performance of your
interceptor and can cause the accumulated contents of the interceptor
to be discharged to the downstream drain system particularly if
discharge rates are toward the maximum rated ow.
If installed in-oor or in ground outside your facility this air balance
access/breather cap must be relocated upward as close as possible to
the underside of the cover to maintain its function.
IF YOU DO NOT SEE A GREY CAP ON TOP
OF THE OUTLET SYSTEM, CONTACT YOUR
INSTALLER/MAINTENANCE CONTRACTOR
IMMEDIATELY AND IF NECESSARY
PURCHASE A REPLACEMENT.
