Please check if your ÖWAMAT type corresponds
to these instructions.
Application:
The ÖWAMAT unit is designed for the treatment of demul-
sifiable compressor condensates in compliance with legal
requirements. Your local "lower-level water authority"
needs to be notified about the operation of the 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 the soil. Contaminated objects have to be cleaned or
disposed of according to the legal regulations.
The 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
• ÖWAMAT only suitable for stationary application
Safety rules:
• It is absolutely essential to observe the present Instructions
for Installation and Operation.
Danger!
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 can result in injuries or damage to de-
vices! For the installation, the national regulations and
safety instructions in force also need to be observed!
• Only transport the ÖWAMAT unit when it is empty!
• Do not install the ÖWAMAT outdoors!
• Protect the ÖWAMAT against direct exposure to sun-
light!
• Take measures to ensure that oil or untreated condensate
cannot enter the sewer system in the event of damage!
• Do not fill any foreign liquid or substances into the pre-
separation tank / ÖWAMAT since this may impair the filter
function!
• Only use original OEKOSORB replacement filter sets!
In the event of significant differences compared with the
speci fications of the general technical approval, e.g. the
employment of non-original filters, the approval no longer
covers the usability of the ÖWAMAT 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 duty of care includes the following:
Installation, siting, maintenance, repair or cleaning:
These tasks have to be carried out by a specialist firm, as
required by law, unless the operator himself possesses the
necessary qualifications and entitlements.
It should further be realised that the statutory limits for indirect
clean-water discharge into the sewer system may be subject
to regional variations.
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 the soil. Contaminated objects have to be cleaned or
disposed of according to the legal regulations.
This work has to be documented in the operating manual.
The operating manual and maintenance reports must be
filed and presented to the responsible local authority if
requested.
Supervision:
The operator must ensure through constant monitoring
that the ÖWAMAT 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 refe-
rence test kit!
• Always keep a spare OEKOSORB filter set!
