Quincy Compressor-QCS High Efficiency Emulsion Separators

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a QCS emulsion
separator. Please read these instructions
carefully before installing your QCS
unit and putting it into service. Trouble
free functioning of QCS emulsion
separators - and thus reliable condensate
treatment - can only be guaranteed if the
recommendations and conditions stated
here are adhered to.

Applications

Section I - General Information

QCS separators are designed for the
treatment of demulsifiable compressor
condensates in compliance with legal
requirements. Your local “lower-level water
authority” should be notified about the
operation of an oil/water separator.

Caution

Oil-contaminated condensate.

Oil-contaminated condensate contains
substances that are hazardous both
to health and the environment. These
substances may cause irritation or
damage to the skin, eyes and mucous
linings. Oil-contaminated condensate
must not be allowed to get into the
sewer system, water bodies or soil.
Contaminated objects must be cleaned
or disposed of according to the legal
regulations.

Wastewater destined for indirect
discharge must not exceed a hydrocarbon
concentration of 20 ppm.

Please note that the national legal limit
values for indirect discharge may vary
regionally.

Media / ambient temperature:

♦

+41...+140 °F

QCS separators are suitable for

♦

stationary application only.

Safety

notiCe

It is absolutely essential to observe
these instructions for installation and
operation.

Warning

Compressed air.

Contact with quickly or suddenly
escaping compressed air or with
bursting plant components carries a
risk of serious injury or death.

Only use pressure-resistant installation
material.

Ensure that condensate cannot squirt
or splash onto persons or objects.

Non-observance of these safety

♦

guidelines can result in injuries or
damage to devices. For installation,
the national regulations and safety
instructions in force also need to be
observed.

Transport the QCS unit only when it is

♦

empty.

Only use original manufacturer

♦

replacement filter sets.

In the event of significant differences

♦

compared with the specifications of
the general technical approval, e.g. the
employment of non-original filters, the
approval no longer covers the usability
of the QCS product. In such cases,
individual approval of the responsible
local authority will be required.
Moreover, there will be no entitlement
to the remedy of defects within a 2-year
period.

The operator’s responsibilities include
installation, maintenance, repair and
cleaning.

These tasks must be carried out by

♦

an authorized technician, as required
by law, unless the operator himself
possesses the necessary qualifications
and entitlements.

The statutory limits for indirect clean-

♦

water discharge into the sewer system
may be subject to regional variations.

All maintenance reports must be filed

♦

and presented to the responsible local
authority, if requested.

The operator must ensure that the QCS

Do not install the QCS outdoors.

♦

Protect the QCS against direct

♦

exposure to sunlight.

Take measures to ensure that oil or

♦

untreated condensate cannot enter
the sewer system in the event of unit
damage.

Do not fill any foreign liquid or

♦

substances into the preseparation tank
since this may impair the filter function.

♦

oil/water separator is in a leaktight
condition and functioning correctly.

Check the oil/water separator for leaks

♦

regularly.

Check the outflowing clean water every

♦

week using the reference test kit.

Always keep a spare filter set.

QCS100 Function

The oil-contaminated condensate can be
fed under pressure to the QCS unit (1).

The pressure is reduced in the pressure
relief chamber (2).

The condensate flows steadily into the
subjacent filter stage without turbulence
and runs through the two-stage filter.

The filter unit (3) comprises a prefilter and
a main filter for binding any residual oil
constituents. The water flows out of the
QCS oil/water separator through the water
outlet (6) and can be discharged directly
into the sewer system.

A sampling valve (5) is provided so that the
wastewater quality can be checked at any
time.

QCS450 Function

Oil contaminated condensate can be
discharged under pressure into the
QCS450 oil/water separator (maximum
system pressure 16 bar).

Overpressure is reduced in the pressure
relief chamber (2) without creating
turbulence in the separation container.

The calmed condensate flows into the filter
stage where it passes slowly through the
cartridge.

The first stage removes large oil drops and
dirt particles, the second stage removes
small oil droplets and the third stage
removes residual mineral hydrocarbons.

The clean water is discharged through the
outlet connection (4).
