Leak/Seal Testing

DO NOT AIR TEST UNIT OR TELEGLIDE RISER SYSTEM! Doing so may result in property damage, personal injury or death.

Base Unit:

To perform a leak/seal test on the base unit, cap/plug all plumbing connections, remove the cover, and fill the unit with water just above the

highest connection. Inspect unit and connections for leaks. Check water level at specific time intervals per local code.

TeleGlide Riser System:

If required by local code, the riser system may be leak/seal tested similar to the base unit.

CAUTION:

the riser(s) must be supported
before filling with water to keep from tipping over. Once riser system is in place and properly supported, cap/plug all plumbing connections on the main unit,
remove the cover from the top of the riser assembly and fill the unit and riser system with water to finished grade level. Carefully, as the riser(s) will be very
heavy from the weight of the water, inspect all gasket(s) and clamps (if applicable) for any leaks. Check water level at specific time intervals per local code.

Lifetime Warranty

Effective March 2, 2015 Striem represents and warrants that HDPE and PP products will be free from any
and all defects in material and workmanship, including corrosion, during the lifetime of the plumbing system in which the Products were originally
installed and will, at its option, agree to repair, replace, or supply credit to the original purchaser.

This warranty does not cover damage caused by the Products’ normal usage, or wear and tear, nor does it cover damage from naturally occurring
phenomenon, including, but not limited to UV, freeze-related damage, or natural disasters. This warranty does not cover the purchaser’s cost of routine
maintenance including replacement of parts required in routine maintenance.

This warranty does not cover fabricated steel products, or any monitoring equipment. This warranty shall be effective if, and only if, the Products:
* Were installed in accordance with Striem’s notes, specifications and instructions, for installation, operation, and maintenance;
* Were installed in conformance with all applicable building and plumbing codes, and passed all applicable testing methods immediately following installation;
* Have not been subjected to misuse or abuse, whether negligent or intentional;
* Were never modified, repaired, or altered by any individual(s) not authorized by Striem.

This warranty is the purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy, and acceptance of this exclusive remedy is a condition of the contract for thepurchase of these
Products. In no event shall Striem be liable for any incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any costs, attorney fees, expenses, losses or
delays claimed to be as a consequence of any damage to, failure of, or defect in any products including, but not limited to, any claims for loss of profi ts,

MAINTENANCE

For most thorough cleaning contact a professional pumper contractor.

1.

Wear appropriate safety equipment when cleaning. Do not smoke near separator or clean near open

2.
flame or sparks.

Remove cover(s).

3.

Remove coalescing media (if applicable) and thoroughly wash down into appropriate container.

4.

Remove all contents of the separator including oil, sediment

5.
and wastewater.

To access the inlet and outlet lines for cleaning as needed:

6.
a.) 4" connections: Remove the inlet and outlet diffusers
(inside unit(s)) by hand loosening
green locking collars.
b.) 6" connections: Remove threaded clean-out plug from the back
of the inlet and outlet diffusers.

Clean the drain lines, diffusers and air relief thoroughly of all

7.
debris before replacing diffusers to original positions or reinstalling
threaded clean-out plug.

Fill unit(s) with water.

8.

Inspect gasket for wear and tear. Replace cover(s).

9.

Dispose of oil per local code.

10.

PUMPING FREQUENCY:

Frequency depends on the capacity of the separator and the amount of oil and sediment in the wastewater.

After initial installation, it is recommended that the unit is fully pumped every 3 to 4 weeks. Monitor each pumping
to establish an adequate maintenance schedule Striem Products recommends pumping frequency to exceed no
more than 6 months.

TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS:

In the case of a clog, inlet and outlet diffusers may be removed for line cleaning. Slower than usual drainage may
indicate the need to pump/clean oil separator. Units with 6" connections have a removable plug on the back of the
diffuser as the diffuser itself is not removable.

Always take proper care to ensure a safe and healthy environment while cleaning separator. For best cleaning and
maintenance service, call your local sewer and drain contractor.

GENERAL SEPARATOR INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

(OS-100 SHOWN)

OPERATION

Striem Oil Separators are engineered to separate oil and other lighter-than-water contaminants from
wastewater to keep them from entering the sewage system. This is accomplished using Striem's patented
Diffusion Flow design. The inlet diffusor distributes the wastewater through the separator in a smooth, even
flow pattern which eliminates dead spots. This diffused flow assures that the oil and sediment layers are
undisturbed and increases the efficiency of the separator.

To maintain proper flow rate,
when interceptor is installed
in a high flow or increased head
pressure application keep
calibrated flow plate installed.
Flow plate calibrated to
rated GPM at 13 foot water column.

Flow Plate Installed

To maintain proper flow rate,
when interceptor is installed in
a low flow or reduced head
pressure application remove
and discard calibrated flow
plate.
