Grease Separator for Professional Kitchens

A grease separator collects fats, oils and solids from kitchen wastewater before they reach the sewage system. Wastewater enters the chamber, where it slows and cools. Fats and oils rise to the surface, while heavier solids settle at the bottom. Two vertical partitions inside the separator create separate zones for grease and sludge, preventing them from mixing and allowing cleaner water to flow out through the outlet pipe.

The operator connects the inlet and outlet pipes to the kitchen drainage system. Wastewater flows in continuously, and the separator automatically separates the grease and sludge. When the chamber fills with grease, the operator opens the ball valve to drain the collected fat into a container for disposal. The padded cover, secured with four switch-latches, reduces noise and prevents odours from escaping.

The separator is built from stainless steel for corrosion resistance and durability in a busy kitchen. The 50 mm diameter inlet and outlet openings match standard drainage pipework. Two internal partitions divide the chamber into three sections, improving separation efficiency. A ball valve at the base allows quick removal of accumulated grease without dismantling the unit.

The 180 L/h flow rate suits medium-volume kitchen operations, handling continuous wastewater output without overflow. The 36 kg weight allows the unit to be moved into position by two people, while the 903 x 548 x 629 mm footprint fits under most worktops or in utility cupboards. The separator is designed for indoor use only, protecting it from weather and temperature fluctuations.

Cleaning involves draining the grease through the ball valve, then flushing the chamber with hot water to remove residual sludge. The stainless steel construction resists staining and allows easy wipe-down of the interior and exterior surfaces. The padded cover can be removed for access to the chamber, and the switch-latches ensure a secure seal during operation.

This model is a standalone grease separator without additional variants or accessories. It is compatible with standard kitchen drainage systems using 50 mm pipework.
