Glossary of Terms

HGI: Industry abbreviation for Hydromechanical

Grease Interceptor. By denition an HGI is designed to use

managed ow, air entrainment and specically designed
features to provide an enhanced level of separation
eciency, removing non petroleum FOG (Fats, Oil and
Grease) from a transition ow of waste water, generated by
commercial foodservice activities (Restaurants, Cafeterias,
Institutional Kitchens , Sandwich Shops and Coee houses
for example). HGI’s are performance tested for eciency of
grease separation based on National Standards.

Operational Cost Index =1

GGI: Industry abbreviation for Gravity Grease

Interceptor. By denition a GGI has a minimum of 350USG

capacity and in operation 500USG to 1500USG of capacity
are most common. No ow control device. Separation
of FOG based on capacity and retention time of water
(minimum 30 min. to exchange volume). At this time no
performance Standards are published for GGI’s.

Operational Cost Index = 5-10+

25% Rule: The rule of thumb, sometimes mandated

by jurisdiction, used to determine frequency of pump
out for GRAVITY GREASE INTERCEPTORS. The 25% refers
to the combined volume or retained FOG and food solids
which shall not exceed 25% of the working volume of the
interceptor.

Cost Index: A way of indicating the relative cost

of dierent types of interceptor to each other for broad
comparison purposes. This includes product purchase,
installation cost and typical maintenance.

Air Entrainment: Mixing of air with Inuent using

a ow control device. Air and grease are attracted to each
other, the air wanting to separate more easily than grease.
Because they become mixed together the air increases the
eciency of separation.

Euent: Waste water containing little to no FOG,

being discharged out of the interceptor.

GRD: Industry abbreviation for Grease Removal

Device. Designed rstly as an HGI, a GRD uses a heat source

and a timed or sensor based skimming (or draw-o ) device
to remove accumulated FOG from the separation chamber
into an external container for collection and disposal. These
units require daily maintenance for management of food
solids. Operational Cost Index = 2.5 - 5

– Available online – Mobile Friendly

BMP

– Best Management Practices

Inuent: Waste water containing uncontrolled

and variable levels of FOG based on the nature and
practices of the foodservice operation.

Separation Chamber: Zone inside the

interceptor where grease separates from water and is
retained.

AHJ: Authority Having Jurisdiction. This can be

one or more government departments - for example plan
check/review, building, plumbing, pretreatment, sewer and
waste water. Bottom line...those who enforce the rules and
regulations.

Quick Start Guide

Before you begin, be sure to review this document in full for important information regarding
the installation process. Also, ensure that the interceptor purchased is correctly specied and
sized for the intended installation. Be sure to reference and be familiar with local code and
municipal FOG Program requirements. The Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) can be your
best friend and your worst enemy.

1. Prepare your
installation area

If installing in-oor or below grade excavate as required
to accommodate the interceptor and ensure safe
working practices. Refer to Installation Specication
section of this document (See Page 8-10).

2a. In ground/oor

Remove all packaging, including the skid. Conrm ow direction,
lower in and level interceptor accounting for anticipated surface
nish requirements.

Note: For installations where high ground water is anticipated,
once located pour at least 8” of concrete on top of your prepared
base, to ll an area around the perimeter of the tank. This will prevent
otation. For alternative methods of anchoring (See Page 8-10).

3. Select preferred outlet connection

Connect your inuent drain to the tank inlet (“IN”). Select the preferred outlet
connection from the pre-plumbed connection ports oered – marked “OUT”.
Side connection is accessed by removal of the caps supplied, that cap then being
used to seal the end outlet.

4. Installations with External Flow Control

(PDI G-101/ASME A112.14.3 - Type A)

For PDI G-101/ASME A112.14.3 (External Flow Control)–
Install the ow control device (purchased separately)
upstream, after the last branch connection discharging to the
interceptor. A maximum of 25ft from last branch discharge
to the entry of the interceptor is required to meet published
recommendations. See Page 12 for connection formats.

Plumbing code typically requires provision of a cleanout
to grade immediately before and after the inlet and outlet
connections.

BELOW GRADE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

- 8 -

1. EXCAVATION

All Endura® XL Grease Interceptors are manufactured with no hub connections. Threaded connections are

available from your Canplas distributor suxing the product code with ‘T’ – i.e. 40100A04T

3.2 Locally approved mechanical joint (MJ) couplings are used to connect the inlet and outlet piping to the

tank. This allows transition to dierent piping materials as required.

3.3 Make system piping connections using locally approved MJ couplings installing to manufacturer’s

instructions. Review all eld-made connections for leaks before backlling begins. Isolate the tank from

the system both up and down stream and ll tank with water, submersing the inlet and outlet fully

below the water level. DO NOT PRESSURE TEST – Risk of serious Injury or Death.

3.4 DO NOT decrease pipe diameter across the unit (i.e. 4 inch inlet, 3 inch outlet). If the piping system

needs to be resized, use appropriate mechanical joint reducers consistent with the direction of ow and

installed in compliance with local code.

4 EXTENSION RISERS (Optional)

4.1 Endura® XL Extension Risers provide a maximum of 35” extension per riser. Based on maximum

installation depth up to a maximum of 72” depth of burial can achieved (see 1.4 above), adding

Extension Risers (or part thereof ) during installation. Risers are cut to length on site to suit installation.

4.2 Remove cover from interceptor. Set aside for use at nished grade/oor level.

4.3 Secure riser to tank (frame remains in place) using xings provided. Ensure seal is correctly located.

4.4 Secure the 1-1/2” adapter tting supplied with the Extension Kit to the thread on the top of the handle

mechanism. Cut and extend a length of 1½” DWV pipe per instructions supplied.

4.5 For custom riser length - measure from tank frame to nished grade/oor level. Subtract 1½”. Cut

cleanly by hand or mechanical means using guide rings molded into the riser to give clean straight cut.

Note - Horizontal surface of cover will be 0.5” above nished oor/grade.

4.6 Fit riser seal provided over the cut edge of the riser and locate frame (supplied) over the seal making

sure it is fully seated. Secure with lag screws provided using the pre-drilled locations in frame.

4.7 Repeat process for additional riser if/as required.

4.8 With frame installed and veried at the correct height, pass the handle extension support over the 1½”

DWV and secure the support to the frame with the screw provided. Solvent weld a 1½” vent tee on top

of the pipe to act as a handle.

1.1 Install the Endura ® XL unit(s) as close as possible to xtures being serviced, ideally within 25ft of

developed pipe run from the last xture to the inlet of the interceptor.

1.2 Width and length of excavation shall be minimum 12” greater than the tank dimensions on all sides.

1.3 Depth of excavation shall be at least 6” deeper than tank bottom.

1.4 IMPORTANT: Maximum burial depth 6ft (72”) measured from the air balance channel (EnduraXL Logo)

to nished grade/oor level. Riser extensions available (40100AX35) - (see below).

1.5 Set the tank on well-packed crushed aggregate material approximately 3/4” size rock, pea gravel or

sand. When setting Endura® XL units they must be level laterally and longitudinally.

1.6 Endura® XL tanks are specically designed to resist bouyancy in high water table conditions. Additional

anchoring may however be necessary as determined by the specifying engineer. Tie-down locations are

incorporated to the tank and can be used in conjunction with coated stainless steel cable and an

applicable anchor method based on subsoil. Specific requirements to be determined by specifying engineer.

2. BACKFILLING & FINISHED CONCRETE SLAB (TRAFFIC LOAD RATED)

Endura® XL is supplied standard with trac rated covers designed in accordance with

AASHTO 304 – H20 (16,000lbs) and approved to CSA B481.0 Class ‘S’ -20˚F to +100˚F (-29˚C to +38˚C)

2.1 Preparation of sub grade per local jurisdictional recommendations.

2.2 Stabilize and compact sub grade to 95% proctor per Excavation information above.

2.3 Fill tank with water (to discharge level) to prevent movement during backlling process and to resist

backll load.

2.4 Before backlling and pouring of slab, install riser(s) (as necessary) and cover assembly to suit nished

oor/grade level.

2.5 Backll using crushed aggregate material approximately 3/4” size rock, pea gravel or sand.

2.6 Place minimum 6” aggregate base beneath poured structural slab. Aggregate should be 3/4” size rock or

pea shingle.
