Cleaning

Quick and easy cleaning of the grease separator

Der Fettabscheider muss regelmäßig gereinigt werden, damit er reibungslos funktioniert. Dazu gehört das Entleeren von festen Abfällen und Fetten, die sich während des Betriebs angesammelt haben. Wie oft Sie den Fettabscheider reinigen müssen hängt davon ab, wie oft Sie ihn benutzen. Bei gewerblichen Anwendern, die große Mengen an fetthaltigen Abfällen entsorgen, muss der Fettabscheider häufiger entleert werden, da sonst das Lamellensystem verstopft und das Gerät überläuft. Auf längere Sicht ist eine komplette Reinigung des Fettabscheiders erforderlich, um die feinen Abfälle am Boden des Geräts zu entfernen.

Unlike other grease separators, our BAGT® grease separatorsdo not require specialist personnel to maintain. You can find the complete and detailed process in our video:

How is the grease separator cleaned?

How to clean your grease separator:

Remove solid waste every 2 days:

• Take out the waste basket.
• Throw the solid waste into the trash can and rinse the basket.
• Replace the basket and then the lid.
• Close the clamp fasteners to ensure that the grease separator is always well sealed.

Collect the fat every 2 to 4 days:

• Close the drain flow control to increase the water level.
• Then open the grease drain valve and let the grease drain into a container.
• Close this control as soon as water comes out.
• Open the water drain control again.
• This process is best done immediately after washing the dishes, when the water is warm and the fat is still liquid.

A complete cleaning is recommended every 3 months or after a minimum of one week of non-use. For this cleaning it is not necessary to pump out the grease separator. You only need to dismantle the components of the grease separator (basket, slat system and sheet) to access the bottom. Open the flush water or the lower inlet regulator if it is connected. Then open the outlet regulator. This operation guarantees the complete cleaning of the grease separator.

Regular maintenance for optimal performance and good wastewater disposal

Cleaning the grease trap is essential to ensure proper performance. Our grease traps are made of food-grade 304L stainless steel, which requires very little maintenance and offers a very high guarantee of quality and durability. With regular cleaning, which can be integrated into the daily cleaning process, optimal maintenance can be achieved in less than 5 minutes.

To ensure good wastewater disposal with the grease separator, you should remember Empty and clean the grease separator as often as necessaryThe collected oils and fats can be stored in a barrel before being handed over to a specialist company. They can then be used as raw material for the production of biodiesel, for example. Finally, the oil and fat-free waste water from the grease separator flows into the public sewer system.
