PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
MIRI oil separator OAM 41 is
designed for separation of oil,
petroleum and other light liquids.
OAM 41 is equipped with inte-
grated sludge trap, automatic float
valve and coalesator. The coalesa-
tor can be removed through the
maintenance shaft for cleaning or
replacement. The inlet and the out-
let at provided with water traps.
FUNCTION
MIRI OAM 41 operates in accord-
ance with the gravity principle com-
bined with an integrated coalescer.
Sludge and heavier particles sepa-
rate and fall down to the bottom
of the tank, while the oil, being
lighter than the water, rises to the
surface. Small oil particles with a
low rising velocity are trapped in
the filter by the coalescense effect
to bigger drops, which are easy to
separate. The refined water flows
into the outlet pipe and out through
the outlet.
Check:
• Check that the separator is filled
up with water to the outlet level
• that the sensor is 15 cm below
the static level when the separa- It is hoever recommended to empty
tor is filled as described above
• that the coalesator is mounted
over the coalesator yoke
• Check that the automatic shut-
off valve is correctly adjusted in
accordance with separate instruc-
tions.
• Check that the alarm is func-
tion tested. The function of the
alarm is tested by lifting the sen-
sor out of the water.The alarm
shall release and give light and
sound signals. och avge ljus- och
ljudsignal. Put the sensor back
into the water. Light and sound
signals will stop. (See separate
instructions for MIRI LARM).
The oil separator must be emptied
when the alarm announes high oil
level or when the maximum sludge
level is reached.
the separator at 50 % of max.
sludge level or at 80 % of max. oil
level.
To empty:
• Lift up the coalesator and the
sensor, clean and inspect them
visually.
• Protect the scumboards and
baffles from damage.
• Use a slurry exhauster to clean
the separator carefully.
• NOTE! Refill with clean water after
the cleaning.
SAND- OR SLUDGE TRAPS
Empty and clean floordrains and
gullies frequently in order to reduce
the sludge volume in the separator.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANT

Toxic fumes may be created in a separator - never
enter into a separator without a fresh air inlet mask,
life line and assistance.
Current national regulations for the work in closed
spaces and the use of ignitive tools must be fol-
lowed.
• Only use self-splitting degreasers. Those not be-
longing to this group may create stable emulsions,
i.d. the oil does not separate from the water.
• Only change the cleaning agent/degreaser when
the separator is emptied.
• The oil may be difficult to separate from the
water if great volumes of hot-water are flushed
into the separator. Emulsions may than be created
and cause high discharge of oil into the waste
water system.
• Emptying, maintenance, repairs, accidents, etc.
shall be notified in a diary, which is saved and
available for the inspection authorities.

INSPECTION
Every week: e) Measure the level before and after the coalesator
• Measure the sludge layer while the separator is in operation (max. 100 mm
level difference is allowed).
f) Check the structure stability and condition (damage,

1 Make sure that there is no transport dam-
age. If there is any damage, it has to be
repaired before installation. The separator
may not be subjected to blows or shocks.
2 The separator may not be installed in
movable clay, mud, peat or similar.
For faultless installationt in difficult ground
states, contact a consulting engineer.
3 If there is a risk from lifting forces from
ground water, the separator should be
anchored by MIRI ground anchor (NS 3 -
NS 30) or to a reinforced concrete slab
(NS 3 - NS 150).
4 The excavation must be 0.6 m wider and
0.3 m deeper than the external measure-
ments of the separator.
5 At the bottom of the excavation there must
be a 0.3 m thick layer of gravel 2-8 mm.
Compact it and make sure that sand is also
packed under the separator (see figure above).
When the separator is mounted on a con-
crete slab, a 0.2 m thick insulation has to
be placed under the separator.
6 Lower the separator on to the sand layer. Use
the loops, do not lift by the separator shaft!
Make sure that the separator is in the horizon-
tal position, if not, the automatic float valve
may not function.

separator. Remaining filling can be made
with excavation material, but no stones
larger than 50 mm.
13 Install the cover. The frame of the cover
may not rest against the maintenance
shaft.
The separator is designed for A-dimension
(distance between ground level and inlet pipe)
max. 2.0 m, unless a reinforced version is
ordered.
If the separator is installed where vehicle traf-
fic may occur, it must be protected by a pres-
sure compensating slab.

MIRI LARM
Level control for grease and oil separators

MIRI LARM is a complete electro-

nic equipment for level control of oil
and grease separators. Two sensors
can be connected to the unit. A ca-
pacitive sensor controlling the oil/
grease layer is included in the stan-
dard version MIRI LARM typ 4 STD.
As option there is a thermistor sensor,
which warns if the separator becomes
overflowed.

n Design
MIRI LARM is equipped with optical as
well as acoustic alarm. The unit has a
reset button for the acoustic alarm
and a test button for testing alarm

PC board.
The level control sensor is mounted with its bottom side fixed approx. 150
mm below the static level when the separator is filled. The bottom of the level
sensor must be down into the water NOT to give alarm signal, see page 6.

The blocking sensor, if provided, is mounted approx. 100 mm above the upper
side of the separator inlet pipe. The blocking sensor must be in the air NOT to
give alarm signal, see page 6.

The sensor cables must be fixed, mechanical protected as well as protected

against environmental inpact in order to secure the explosion protection.

Note! If Miri Larm type 4 including blocking sensor shall be used as overflow
alarm, a resistor (option) must be mounted on terminal 1.

Separators, Mount the the sensor(s) in the sepa-

underground rator neck as shown in the figure. The
installation cable pipe in the ground should at
least have 1” diameter. The pipe inlet
through the neck shall be tightened.
Mount the hook onto the neck wall at
a suitable distance from the manhole
cover to give easy access to the sensor.

USTARTING-UP
Switch on the voltage to the control box. The unit will check all sensors. Alarm indication, if any, will be shown within 1
minute after the start. The unit will then be ready for operation.

Test funCtion
There is a built-in test function for checking the alarm inlets and outlets, which is activated by pushing the ”Test”-buttom
and keep it down for approx. 3 seconds.

The following will be carried out in a sequence:
- Level control alarm during 5 seconds. Red LED ”Level control” is illuminated. Relay outlet R1 for level control alarm is
fallen.
- Overflow alarm during 5 seconds. Red LED for ”Overflow” is illuminated. Relay outlet R2 for overflow alarm is fallen.
- No alarms during 5 seconds. Both the relay outlets are drawn. The unit returns into normal operation mode.

Reset
The Reset button only confirms the buzzer. The red alarm LED is illuminated with fixed light until the separator is emptied
and refilled with water (the alarm function enters when the sensor is surrounded by air).

OPERATION instruCtionS
Normal: Both ”Level control” and ”Overflow” show green light when there is no alarm from any inlet.
The relais R1 ”Level” and R2 ”Overflow” of the the potential free outlets are drawn.

Level control alarm: ”Level control” shows red light and the buzzer sounds when there is a level control alarm, i.e. the
level control sensor is in oil or grease. The relay R1 of the potential free outlet is fallen.

Overflow alarm: ”Overflow” shows red light and the buzzer sounds when the overflow alarm sensor is in water. The
relay R2 of the potential free outlet is fallen.

Defect sensor If there is a short circuit on the inlet for the level control sensor, ”Level control” is flashing with
level control: red light with approx. 1 Hz, i.e. 1 flash/second (fast).
With open circuit (interruption) ”Level control” flashes with approx. 1/3 Hz, i.ed 1 flash every 3rd
second (slow) and the buzzer sounds.
The relay R1 of the potential free outlet is fallen.

Defect sensor If there is a short circuit on the inlet for the overflow alarm, ”Overflow” is flashing quckly with
overflow: red light = 1 flash/second.
With open circuit (interruption) ”Overflow” flashes slowly = 1 flash/3 seconds and the buzzer
sounds.
The relay R2 of the potential free outlet is fallen. Press ”RESET” to stop the buzzer.
The buzzer will be activated again after approx. ca 20 hours.

 MIRI PBM
Sampling well for underground installed grease and oil separators

Sampling well MIRI PBM is connected

to the outlet from oil or grease sepa-
rators for the purpose of collecting
representative samples of the water
