Section 1: Introduction
1.2 THEORY OF OPERATION
The ULTRA-SEP® Bilge Water Separator is a dual stage bilge water separation system. The first stage utilizes a
system generated vacuum, differential specific gravity and high efficiency two stage coalescer for the removal of the
majority of free oil and dirt separation. The second stage uses a micron filtration for removal of trace solids and
small oil droplets followed by ultra-filtration to separate and remove emulsified oils, along with the remaining
minute solids and entrained air from bilge water. The system is designed for continuous and/or intermittent
operation. After the system has been started, it is capable of automatic operation.

The innovative design of the CWWS Bilge Water Separator eliminates the need for flocculants and
chemical additives to remove the emulsified oily bilge water.

Stage 1
Incoming bilge water passes through a basket strainer (customer provided) to remove oversized solid contaminants.
From there it is drawn into the first stage consisting of a well proven coalescing HELI-SEP® Oily Water Separator,
where the free oil droplets coalesce as they pass through the permanent matrix. This oil rises to the top of the vessel
and it is collected for discharge during the oil discharge cycle. The water is then drawn through a pack of oleophillic
polishing beads, which trap the remaining fine oil droplets. These oil droplets are washed out and discharged during
the oil discharge cycle.

Stage 2
Processed water from the HELI-SEP® is then directed through particulate filtration, which further reduces solids
contamination. This semi-treated water is then fed into the process pump; this pump increases the flow and pressure
to the optimum conditions for the SPIR-O-LATORS®. The Spir-O-Lators® are engineered to produce clean water in
compliance with MEPC 107 (49), and a reject stream, which is re-circulated back for re-processing.

The system has been designed to be installed as a single skid assembly or in separate modules to accommodate
various engine room layouts.

Section 2: General Description
2.1 GENERAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The ULTRA-SEP® Bilge Water Separator is an ultra-filtration process designed for separating a wide variety of
chemically or mechanically emulsified bilge water solutions. At the heart of the system are the CWWS HELI-SEP®
and the CWWS SPIR-O-LATOR® (which are designed and developed specifically for bilge water and industrial
waste applications and are impervious to most chemicals). The ULTRA-SEP®’s major components are the HELI-
SEP®, Feed Pump, Bag Filter, Process Pump, the SPIR-O-LATORS® and must also include an approved MEPC 107
(49) Oil Content Detector. The system is also available with optional influent heater for enhanced cold water
operation. The ULTRA-SEP® is designed to eliminate the need for attended operation. The controls provide two
basic modes of operation; an run mode and a clean mode. The gauge displays provide operating pressures and visual
indicators of operating conditions. The ULTRA-SEP®' s components are all corrosion resistant for long service life
and are installed on one powder-coated structural steel skid which is arranged for ease of installation and servicing.

2.2 PROCESS FLOW DESCRIPTION


The bilge water to be processed is pulled from the bilge or holding tank by the Feed Pump. The water is pulled
through a customer supplied basket strainer to remove large solids. The influent then enters the separator near the
bottom of the solids sludge collecting chamber. Most of the free oil separates from the influent immediately due to
the difference in specific gravity and the reduced flow velocity inside the separator. The flow travels upward through
the separating media matrix. This path maximizes contact with the separating media to enhance coalescence of the
oil. The flow exits the top of the separating media matrix where the oil continues to flow upwards to the top of the
separator’s oil collecting chamber due to the difference in specific gravity. The influent less the majority of free oil is
then drawn downward by the Feed Pumps’ vacuum through the polishing pack. The polishing pack removes the
small oil droplets. When sufficient oil has been collected in the oil collecting chamber, the oil sensing probes located
in the top of the separator deactivate the Feed Pump and open the clean water inlet valve. Pressurized water, sea
water or fresh water, (warm water is recommended if available 37.8ºC (100ºF). maximum) enters from the bottom of
the separator and displaces the accumulated oil in the collection chamber top of the HELI-SEP® which is discharged
through the oil discharge line. After the accumulated oil has been discharged and the oil sensing probe is again
immersed in water, the separator returns to the separating mode. The semi cleaned influent less the majority of free
oils, but with some emulsified oils, exits the HELI-SEP® through the Feed Pump.

The Feed Pump pressurizes the influent for processing through the process Bag Filter before supplying the Process
Pump with a positive suction head. The Bag filter removes suspended solids and oil droplets of approximately 5
microns and larger from the flow.

This semi-cleaned influent is supplied to the Process Pump for processing by the CWWS SPIR-O-LATORS®. The
process pump increases the influent pressure and drives the emulsions across the surface of the SPIR-O-LATOR® at
a high velocity. Water, salts and detergents are forced through the SPIR-O-LATOR® by back pressure created by the
system and the systems operating pressure control valve while oils and other waste larger than or greater than twenty
thousandths (20,000) in molecular weight are rejected. The portion of the influent forced through the SPIR-O-
LATOR® is referred to as the processed water (clean water or permeate) while the remainder is referred to as the
concentrate or reject. The processed water is discharged from the system. This system is being constantly replenished
by the influent supplied by the Feed Pump. The concentrate with the rejected oils and waste is returned to inlet of the
Bag Filter, for de-oiling and polishing before being fed to the Process Pump inlet for reprocessing through the
SPIR-O-LATORS®. This reject reprocessing allows for a higher velocity flow rate across the SPIR-O-LATORS®
which maximizes the process water output by minimizing fouling because the higher velocity shears off the excess
oils and waste of the surface of the SPIR-O-LATORS®. The process flow rate is the combination of the process
water flow and the concentrate flow.

The ULTRA-SEP® is equipped with additional features and functions to maintain optimum operating conditions.
The process water, concentrate and concentrate bleed to bilge flows are factory set and can be manually checked for
verification. Liquid filled pressure gauges are provided and identified to help monitor operating conditions.

2-1
Section 2: General Description
In summary, the processed water, the output of the ULTRA-SEP®, is equal to the systems emulsified influent minus
the small concentrate bleed outlet stream. The concentrated bleed is continuously discharged from the recirculation
line, where concentrated oils can be further coalesced in the bilge, or holding tank, or in the HELI-SEP® when being
reprocessed through the ULTRA-SEP®. This process allows the ULTRA-SEP® to produce one stream of processed
water that is less than 15 parts per million that can be discharged overboard per IMO Resolution MEPC.107 (49).

The system is equipped with a Certified MEPC.107 (49) oil content monitor, which continuously monitors the
processed water for oil content. If the oil content exceeds the alarm set point the water will automatically be re-
directed to re-circulate to the bilge.

Section 3: Installation
3.1 UNPACKING
Carefully remove top and sides of the crating. Inspect the system for any damage that may have occurred during
shipment. Unbolt the system from the crate. Padding on fragile items should remain in place to protect fragile items
during rigging of the system into position. Once the system is securely installed, the padding on the fragile items can
be removed.

3.2 INSTALLATION
Installation in accordance with the recommendations that follow will ensure long and trouble-free operation from the
equipment. Refer to Appendix “C” for the Installation drawing for dimensional and orientation information, and to
the Piping & Instruments Drawing for piping arrangements.

3.2.1 SITE SELECTION AND PREPARATION

NOTE
Allow ample room for servicing units electrical controls, pump motor,
SPIR-O-LATORS® and other components. Reference the drawings in
Appendix “C” for required clearances.

CAUTION
BE SURE THAT THE BILGE HAS BEEN THOROUGHLY CLEANED
OF ALL DEBRIS, LIQUIDS AND CONTAMINANTS REMAINING
FROM THE SHIPS’ FABRICATION BEFORE START UP.
Securely install the system as level as possible with the interface connections positioned to permit the most direct
route to the piping connections. Eliminate as many 90 degree turns as possible. System should be fully supported and
bolted down through holes provided in skid.

3.2.2 PIPING CONNECTIONS


NOTE
The suction source should be located so as to lift the fluid the shortest
distance possible and not to exceed 7 Meters [23 Feet] vertical. Do not draw
suction from a point less than 300 Millimeters [12 inches] above the sludge
level in bottom of the bilge or holding tank. Important ascertain that all
suction lines are air-tight. THIS IS IMPORTANT: Lines that leak air will
cause erratic performance during start up, such as frequent Oil Discharges as
the OSP on the Heli-Sep will think the air is oil. Keep the horizontal run
under 30 Meters [100 Feet] and it must be the same or larger than the
ULTRA-SEP interface.

CAUTION
INSTALL A FOOT VALVE (USER SUPPLIED) AT THE SUMP OR
HOLDING TANK END OF THE SYSTEM’S INLET SUCTION LINE.
1. Connect a line to the Oily Water Inlet from the (user supplied) sump or holding tank which is to supply the
oily water to the ULTRA-SEP® for processing. Ascertain that a foot valve (user supplied) is installed at the
(user supplied) sump or holding tank end of the line. A bleed port should be provided as close to the foot
valve end of the suction line as possible for priming purposes. The source for the inlet should be in an area
that will provide the best quality solution possible to the system. Ensure that piping is capable of supplying
the inlet to the system as required by the specifications.

3-1
Section 3: Installation

NOTE
The processed water vertical lift to overboard can not exceed 20 Meters [65 feet]. If
a higher head is required an optional pump maybe required.
2. Connect the Processed Water Outlet to the discharge line going overboard.

3. Connect a line to both Recirculation’s to return the re-circulates preferably to the bilge for complete
reprocessing, or to a holding tank which is acceptable, but connecting these lines right back to the system’s
Oily Water Inlet is un-acceptable and must be avoided.

4. Connect the Clean Water Inlet to a clean pressurized water source (Sea or Fresh) for flushing the HELI-
SEP®, and for flushing or filling the ULTRA-SEP®. PRESSURE MUST NOT BE LESS THAN 1.38 bar
[20 PSI] or exceed 5.5 bar [80 PSI].

5. Connect a line to the Oil Discharge to discharge the Separator’s accumulated oil to a slop tank for waste
disposal or storage.

NOTE
For Gravity Drain, the drain lines must be higher than the (user supplied)
sump or bilge into which they are to discharge.

6. Connect lines to the Drains to gravity drain the system back to the (user supplied) sump or bilge.

4.2.1 HELI-SEP FILL

1. Put all manual BV valves in the position shown on chart BV1, BV4 & BV8 are all open.

2. Turn Power Switch On.

3. Put system Switch in Off position.

4. Put Flush Switch on OWS position.

5. When air is gone and the OSP (Oil Sensing Probe) sees water, and when water bleeds out of BV2 & BV8
then close those valves.

6. Note, this will fill in 3 minute cycles only. If all the air is not gone out and the OSP (Oil Sensing Probe)
does not yet see water then put the Flush Switch in Off position and then back to OWS to repeat another
three minutes and continues until all the air is removed.

4.2.2 SPIR-O-LATOR® FILL

1. Put all manual BV valves in the position shown on the chart. BV1, BV4 & BV10 are open, all
others closed.

2. Turn Power Switch On, System Switch in Off position and Flush Switch in Spir-O-Lator® position.

3. When air is gone and water bleeds out of BV4 and BV10 then close those valves.

4. This cycle run in 3 minute increments. If all the air does not bleed out repeat cycle by putting Flush
Switch to Off the back to Spir-O-Lator® until all the air is removed.

4.3 INITIAL START-UP & OPERATION


4.3.1 NORMAL OPERATION (BELOW 15 PPM)

1. Put all manual valves in position shown on the chart BV1 is open all others are closed.

2. Turn on Power Switch, put System Switch in Run position, put Flush Switch in Off Position.

3. The system will begin producing clean water and discharging it over board.

4. Power, Feed Pump & Process Pump lights will be illuminated. The Water Discharge light will also be
illuminated if SV1 is open and the system is discharging over board.

5. Both Pump PU1 and PU2 are running.

6. All solenoid and ball valves should be in the positions shown on P&ID and also shown in the operating
chart.

4.3.2 NORMAL OPERATION OIL DISCHARGE

When Oil Sensing Probe (OSP) sees enough oil to discharge it will automatically do the following:

4-4
Section 4: Operating Instructions
1. Shut off Feed Pump PU1.

2. Open SV4.

3. Close SV1 & SV3.

4. The Oil Discharge light will illuminate.

5. If this discharge runs over 5 minutes before Oil Sensing Probe (OSP) sees water the system will shut
down and illuminate the Alarm light.

6. If the Oil Sensing Probe (OSP) signals the need for 3 consecutive oil discharges within 15 minutes the
system will also shut down and illuminate the Alarm light. Note, this typically mean one of two things:
a. There is excessive oil in the bilge or
b. There is an air leak feeding the system and the Oil Sensing Probe (OSP) sees air and thinks its
water

7. When all oil is discharged to the slop tank and oil sensing probe sees clean water it will revert back to
normal operation.

8. Note, Process Pump (PU2) will continue running during this cycle.

4.3.3 NORMAL OPERATION (OVER 15 PPM) RECIRCULATION TO BILGE

When the “Oil Content Detector” (OCD) reads over 15 PPM the following happens automatically
to prevent oil from being discharge over board.

1. SV1 closes & SV2 opens.

2. The water discharge light will go out.

3. Everything else remains the same as in normal operation.

4.4 ROUTINE SHUTDOWN PROCEDURES


Prior to any system shutdown, it is recommended that the operator observes and compares the performance of the
system with the normal operation specifications and initial operation readings recorded in this manual. Doing so will
enable the operator to identify and take corrective actions to ensure a properly functioning system at all times.

CAUTION

THE SPIR-O-LATORS® SHOULD REMAIN MOIST AT ALL TIMES.


IF THE SPIR-O-LATORS® ARE ALLOWED TO TOTALLY DRY
OUT, THEY MAY BE RUINED. BY FOLLOWING THE SPIR-O-
LATORS® FLUSH PROCEDURE SEE 5.2 IN MAINTENANCE
SECTION 5. THIS WILL ASSURE THEY WILL SIT IN CLEAN

Section 5: Maintenance Procedures
5.1 HELI-SEP FLUSH & SLUDGE REMOVAL
It is recommended that this procedure be performed every 24-32 hours of operation to remove excess oil build up in
the system and to remove sludge that settle in the bottom of the vessel it should also be performed prior to each
membrane cleaning.

1. Leave Power Switch on.

2. Put the System Switch in Off and allow the system to sit for 10 minutes.

3. Open valve BV3.

4. Put Flush Switch in OWS position.

5. It will flush for 3 minutes.

6. Close BV3

7. Put Flush Switch in Off position and then back to OWS position to continue flushing to slop tank for 3
more minutes.

8. Put Flush Switch back into Off position the Process Pump (PU2) will go on and system will be back in
normal operation.

5.2 SPIR-O-LATOR FLUSH


This should be performed

• Before every shutdown.

• Prior to cleaning the Spir-O-Lator®.

• After cleaning the Spir-O-Lator® to flush the cleaning detergent from the system.

1. Put System Switch in Off position.

2. Put Flush Switch in Spir-O-Lator position.

3. The System will automatically flush for 3 minutes. Feed Pump (PU1) and Process Pump (PU2) will be
running, SV4 & SV3 open, SV1 & SV2 closed for 3 minutes.

If after a cleaning the smart cell reads over 15 PPM you can repeat the flushing or put the System Switch
in Run position it will recirculate to bilge until it flushes itself clean and then return to discharge over
board when the PPM drops below 15.

5-1
Section 5: Maintenance Procedures
5.3 FLUSHING THE SMARTCELL (OIL CONTENT DETECTOR)
1. On the OCD SMART-CELL use the DOWN and UP Keys to view the Menu options.

2. Scroll down to "Diagnostics" then press the ENTER key. The screen will change as shown:

3. Select “View disp PPM” and press ENTER. The clean water solenoid valve now is activated and clean
water is introduced to the monitor. You must then open (BV7) to allow the clean water to flow thru the
monitor and to drain. This will flush out the SMART-CELL. The display will appear as below and the
ppm reading of the clean water will be displayed. This reading should be less than 2 ppm.

4. Let the SMART-CELL flush for 30-60 seconds then close (BV7) and press the ENTER key twice to leave
the diagnostics screen, set the clean water solenoid valve back to sample and return to the operation screen
of the SMART-CELL.

Section 5: Maintenance Procedures
5.4 FILTER BAG REPLACEMENT
Refer to the Flow Diagram Drawing in Appendix “C” for the location of the referenced valves.

WHEN TO REPLACE
The Process Bag filters require replacing when the differential pressure reaches 1 bar [15 PSID] between the inlet
and outlet of the filter housing (Use PI2 and PI3 to determine this difference). Shut down the system by turning the
power switch (1) off

REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE
When changing bags it is a good practice to flush out the housing to remove accumulated dirt and sediment. The
following procedure should be followed to change the bag filters.

1. Turn the Power Switch in Off position.

2. Open the Process Filter Drain Valve (BV5).

3. Open the Process Filter Vent Valve (BV4).

4. Loosen cover clamp bolt and remove cover clamp.

5. Remove the cover.

6. After the housing has drained, remove the filter bag.

7. Check the internal filter bag support basket for debris, remove and clean if necessary.

8. Check the condition of the cover gasket and replace if necessary.

9. If removed, re-install the cleaned support basket into the filter housing making sure basket flange is firmly
seated onto the step on the inside of the filter housing.

10. Install a new or cleaned filter bag into the support basket making sure the filter ring is firmly seated against
the top of the basket flange. Be sure that the bag is fully extended to the bottom of the basket.

11. Re-install the cover. When tightening the cover clamp, it may be necessary to light tap the clamp to have it
fully seat and seal the filter housing.

12. Close the Process Filter Drain (FIL1) Valve (BV5).

13. Refill the system as described in Spir-O-Lator® fill on section 4.2.2 before restarting. Be sure air is fully
bleed out of BV4 before closing.

Section 5: Maintenance Procedures
5.5 SPIR-O-LATORS® CLEANING

WHEN TO CLEAN
The Coffin World Water System ULTRA-SEP® Bilge water Separator employs an automatic system flush after
shutdown of the process pump, which is a very effective means of protecting the SPIR-O-LATORS® from fouling.
However, in normal operation the SPIR-O-LATORS® can become fouled by mineral scale, biological matter and
grime. These deposits build up during operation until they cause a loss in processed water production or a loss of
processed water quality, or both. The SPIR-O-LATORS® require a cleaning when the processed water back pressure
drops to 2 Bar [30 PSI], or when processed water quality decreases noticeably.

It should be noted that the processed water output rate will vary depending on when flow rate is checked in
relationship to time from last flush. Also, flow rate will change if the inlet composition changes, the operating
pressure changes or the temperature changes. This is normal and does NOT indicate SPIR-O-LATORS® fouling.

Check all system operating parameters and make comparison with initial operating data recorded during initial
startup, or in log sheets, before attempting to clean the SPIR-O-LATORS®. If after considering all the above factors,
it is determined that the SPIR-O-LATORS® require cleaning or change out, carefully follow the steps outlined on the
following pages.

CLEANING TYPICAL (CHANGE OUT CONSULT FACTORY FIRST)


The system is set up to allow easy semi-automatic cleaning of the membranes in place or for easy change out if
needed. You can easily clean in place per the cleaning description that follows. We recommend that you do this until
the cleaning does not revive the membranes to with in 40 % of their original fresh water start up production, but first
exhaust all cleaning procedures as a different cleaner or two steps cleaning process may work. If none of these are
successful we recommend consulting the factory first before changing them out and returning them to the closest
cleaning center.

5.5.1 PREPARATION FOR CLEANING


The SPIR-O-LATORS® are cleaned in place. No disassembly of components is required.

1. Shut down the system according to the Routine Shutdown Procedure.

2. First run a Heli-Sep flush see section 5.1, second run a Spir-O-Lator® flush see section 5.2.

CAUTION
When mixing the cleaning solutions, wear a face mask, rubber apron and
rubber gloves.
3. After the SPIR-O-LATOR® flush has concluded, a batch of detergent should be applied. Pour the
recommended amount of cleaning detergent as given in Section 5.4.4 into the Process Filter Housing’s
(FIL1) Cleaning Canister. Open the Process Filter Drain Valve (BV5) followed by Cleaning Valve (BV6) to
allow for the cleaning detergent to be drawn into the Process Filter by vacuum.

5. Once the Cleaning Canister is emptied of detergent, immediately close the Cleaning Valve (BV6) and
Process Filter Drain Valve (BV5) as to minimize pulling any air into the Process Filter Housing (FIL1).

5-4
Section 5: Maintenance Procedures
5.5.2 CLEANING PROCEDURES
1. Follow preparation for cleaning in Section 5.5.1. to perform a Pre Clean cycle and load a batch of cleaning
detergent.

2. Start the Cleaning cycle by opening BV4 and putting the clean/off/run switch in the clean position. During
this time, approximately 10 seconds, purge the Process Filter (FIL1) of any air accumulated during the
Preparation for Cleaning procedures by opening and closing its Vent Valve (BV4).

3. The Process Pump (PU2) will start running in a Circulation Cycle allowing the detergent to mix and flow
across the SPIR-O-LATORS® to scourer its surfaces. It will run for a minimum of 30 minutes or until the
temperature switch (TSH1) shuts the system down when the recalculating cycle heat the water to 50°C.
Note: Heating the water to between 45°C - 50°C will provide the best cleaning.

4 If after the Circulation Cycle is finished turn the clean switch off and let it soak for a minimum of 4 hours.
Over night would be best. Then do Spir-O-Lator® flush to remove detergent from the system see 5.2

5. After the flush has finished, and Spir-O-Lator cleaned water production has not fully recovered follow the
Preparation For Cleaning 5.4.1 steps 4 and 5 to inject another batch of cleaning detergent for a second and
last Circulation Cycle if needed.
EXCEPTION, if cleaning with chlorine bleach, DO NOT repeat this cycle and DO NOT soak.

6. At the end of the cleaning cycle (or when restarting after a prolonged or overnight soak) you will need to
flush out the SPIR-O-LATORS® thoroughly to remove all the cleaning detergents from the system,
otherwise on start up the smart cell will register higher PPM’s and recalculate to bilge until the detergent is
purged.

7. After cleaning, the process bag filter may need to be replaced with a new filter if the differential pressure is
over 10 PSI. (See Filter Bag Replacement 5.3)

8. The ULTRA-SEP® is now ready to operate. To restart the system after cleaning, refer to the Pre-start
procedures. If a prolonged shutdown is required, refer to the SPIR-O-LATOR® Preserving Section 5.6.

5.5.3 CLEANING DETERGENTS


There are a variety of cleaning detergents, both liquid and powder that can be used. The success of the cleaning
procedure outlined on Section 5.4.2 will be determined by how close (+/- 10%) the processed water back pressure as
shown on the gauge panel (PI5), returns to its normal operating PSI as indicated on the systems P&ID as line 6
“Spir-O-Lator Product Max” showing both pressure and flow.

The best procedures to be used will often need to be determined by experience due to bilge water characteristics,
which change from ship to ship.

The following are three of the most common types of contaminants:

NOTE
It is recommended to keep the PH of any alkaline cleaning mixture between
10 and 12. See the following PH measurement procedure.
“The PH of the solution can be checked by taking a sample from the Process
Filter (FIL1) Vent Valve (BV4) after the solution has mixed for 1 to 2 minutes
for measurement. If the PH is over 12, drain some out and add water to the
canister. Continue this until the PH gets below 12.
1. If the bilge water is fouled with fair soot, (fine carbon particles) and/or oil, and /or organics it is
recommended to use CWWS Cleaner No. 1 or No. 1A (alkaline types).

5-5
Section 5: Maintenance Procedures

NOTE
Normally cleaning for oil (CWWS Cleaner No. 1 or No. 1A) will provide the
best performance, however a scale may gradually build up that is not
removed by this cleaning procedure. When this occurs, it will appear that
the Alkaline procedure is ineffective. An Acid cleaning is then
recommended to see if the problem is corrected. When using these acidic
compounds keep the PH levels over 2.
2. If the membrane is fouling due to the water hardness and metallic scale (rusty pipes or bilge water), it is
recommended to use CWWS Cleaner No. 2 (acid type).

NOTE
Chlorine bleach is to be strictly used only when biological fouling has
occurred and must be used in the recommended amounts (refer to table on
the following page) and NEVER allowed to soak or circulate for over ten
minutes.
3. If the membrane becomes biologically fouled, typical indications are bad odor, process water discolored to
light green, or it can be blackish. This usually means the unit has not been flushed or run for awhile and the
SPIR-O-LATORS® were allowed to soak in the bilge water. It is recommended to use a short, under 10
minutes, chlorine bleach cleaning cycle followed by a thorough flush and then followed by an alkaline
cleaning.
Also reference our Spare Parts List (7-1) for cleaners available:

NOTE
Other cleaners such as Drew Chemicals “Fresh” or “LAC” can be used to
clean the SPIR-O-LATORS for the short term. But their performance may
not be optimal and may decrease membrane life and void the warranty.

5.5.4 CHANGE OUT PROCEDURES (ONLY IF NEEDED, CONSULT FACTORY FIRST)


The SPIR-O-LATORS® can be easily changed out and those that have fouled beyond the point that in-place cleaning
will not return them to 40% of their Max. flow rate given on line 6 of the P & ID (See Drawings Appendix “C”), can
be returned for special cleaning. Prior to removing, Review Section 5.4.5 thoroughly to be sure all in place
cleaning has been tried and then consult the factory for details.

1. Flush the Spir-O-Lator® (see 5.2) for system for 9-12 minutes before changing out. Then follow that with
the Preserving Procedure (5.6.2) before changing out.
NOTE
®
Refer to the SPIR-O-LATOR Housing Assembly drawing located in
Appendix “C”, for detailed assembly procedures.
2. Remove each complete fouled SPIR-O-LATOR® using the quick disconnects and replace with complete
new or cleaned SPIR-O-LATOR® from your stock.

3. Replace Process Filter (FIL1) if required before restarting the unit (See Filter Bag Replacement 5.3)

4. Restart the system per the Initial Start Up Procedure.

5. Pack the wet preserved fouled SPIR-O-LATOR® in the plastic bag the replacement came out of. Seal the
bag tight, then place in the individual SPIR-O-LATOR® box.

6. Obtain a RMA (Return Material Authorization) from CWWS for the special cleaning. When cleaned they
will be returned to you for the next cycle.

5-7
Section 5: Maintenance Procedures

5.5.5 REDUCED RECOVERY:


If the cleaner you are using as outlined in Section 5.4.4 has worked for a period of time but you notice the
SPIR-O-LATORS® are “not” recovering as before, a contaminant that your cleaner is not addressing may have
caused a gradual scale build up and a different cleaner or a two step cleaning procedure may correct the problem.
We suggest trying the following procedures. If these do not improve the recovery, consult the factory for further
options.

NOTE
If you do see improvement, but not enough. Repeat the cycle extending the
circulation and soak times.

1. FIRST: Try a different cleaner following the normal cleaning procedure. For example, if you have been using
cleaner No. 1, try cleaner No. 1A, if this does not work then try No. 2. If you still have no success, try the
chlorine for Bio-Fouling as outlined in Section 5.4.4 Step 3, and as stated above, if you see improvement repeat
the cycle lengthening circulation and soak times.

2. SECOND: We have found the following two step procedure to be effective in some cases:

Step 1: Do a normal cleaning with cleaner No. 1, extending the cleaning circulation time (5.4.2 Step 3)
to 1 ½ hours. Then extend the final soak (5.4.2 Step 7) for a minimum of 1 hour. Be sure to flush
thoroughly when complete.

Step 2: Repeat the cleaning procedure again using cleaner No. 1A. Also repeat the 1 ½ hour cleaning
circulation time (5.4.2 Step 3)

NOTE
This will heat the solution to about 40°C

Then extend the final soak to overnight , or for a minimum of 4 hours. Follow with a through flushing.

CAUTION
Use the proper amounts of chemicals as outlined in section 5.5.3
and error on the (+) side.

5-8
Section 5: Maintenance Procedures
5.6 SPIR-O-LATOR® PRESERVING
PROLONG SHUTDOWN
The interior of the SPIR-O-LATORS®, being dark and moist, is an excellent breeding ground for microorganisms.
During prolonged shutdowns or storage periods of three (3) or more weeks, the SPIR-O-LATORS® should be
disinfected and sterilized by filling the system with a preserving solution. Preserving the SPIR-O-LATORS® will
save them from premature fouling or early failure by preventing bacteria from forming while the system is shut down
for extended periods of time. If not clean, the membranes should be cleaned before preserving. Refer to Flow
Diagram drawing in Appendix "C" for the location of the referenced valve callouts shown in parenthesis. Refer to
Figure 3, The Control Panel, for the location of the electrical switches and displays.

5.6.1 PREPARATION FOR PRESERVING.


No disassembly of components is required.

1. FIRST: Do a normal cleaning as outlined in Section 5.4.

2. SECOND: Then prepare the SPIR-O-LATORS® per the Preparation for Cleaning procedures 5.4.1 except
on step 5 replace the cleaning detergent with the preserving solution as outlined below.

CAUTION
When adding the preserving solution, wear a face mask, rubber apron and
rubber gloves.

5.6.2 PRESERVING PROCEDURES


1. Follow the preparation for Preserving as stated above.

2. Start the Preserving Cycle (same as cleaning cycle). During initial start up, approximately 10 seconds, purge
the Process Filter (FIL1) of any air accumulated during the Preparation for Preserving procedures by
opening and closing its Vent Valve (BV4).

2. After the 10 seconds, the Process Pump (PU2) will run in a Circulation Cycle allowing the preservative to
mix and flow across the SPIR-O-LATORS®. Allow the Circulation Cycle to operate for approximately 5 –
10 minutes to fully penetrate the SPIR-O-LATOR surfaces.

3. After the preservative has been circulated, stop the preserving operation by putting the Clean/Off/Clean
Switch to Off position.

5-9
Section 5: Maintenance Procedures
4. After a prolong shutdown, restart the system by first using the Manual Operation Procedures. Following the
pre-start procedures, see 4.2.1, 4.2.2

5.7 CLEANING THE OIL SENSING PROBE


If the system’s oil discharge function is constantly being activated, the Separator’s Oil Sensing Probe may require a
cleaning or the inlet lines developed an air leak.

1. Disconnect the wires and remove the Probe holder.

2. Clean off the Oil Sensing Probes.


a. Emery cloth or wet sand paper may be required to clean metal portions of Probe prongs.

O il / W ater S eparation
T he s eparation of oil and water by ultrafiltration (U F) is a well-proven technology, but its wide
s pread utilization for was tewater m inim ization or recycling applications has been lim ited by three
com m on problem s :

1. fouling from "free" oil which overflows from upstream pretreatment


2. fouling from "free" oil which de-emulsifies as the feed is concentrated
3. fouling and decomposition of the membrane from accidental
contamination of the waste stream by aggressive solvents

1.2 SMART CELL - BILGE Overview


The SMART CELL - BILGE Monitor has been designed specifically for use in conjunction with
15ppm oily-water separator units. It has a specification and performance which meets the
requirements of the International Maritime Organisation specifications for Bilge Alarm Units
contained in Resolution MEPC 107 (49).

Analysis of the oily water sample is undertaken by a unique detector array arrangement. A
narrow beam of light is emitted across a glass cell tube which the oily water sample passes
through. Light scattered and transmitted is detected across the array and passed through
a complex oil content calculation algorithm. The resulting oil content is then displayed on
the LCD screen.

Two oil alarm relays and a 0-20mA / 4-20mA output are provided to control the overboard
discharge and to view / record oil content levels remotely.

To meet the new requirements of MEPC 107(49) an on board flash memory, Real time
clock, dual switch input and clean water / sample selection valve are fitted. These are
described in more detail in the operating instructions (Section 4).

Installation
2.1 Construction Details

The SMART CELL - BILGE Monitor is split into two logical modules. The display / control
module (2) (left) contains the membrane keypad, LCD display and the Smart Bilge Control
PCB. Contained on this PCB are all the control and data storage associated electronics in
addition to all the customer terminations which can be accessed via the cable glands(5).
This PCB links a 5 volt supply and RS485 communications to the Cell electronics via a 4 wire
interface cable.

The SMART CELL (1), contains the optoelectronics and mechanics used in the calculation of
the sample oil content. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCE IS THIS ENCLOSURE TO BE OPENED.
Sample (7) and clean water (8) lines are connected to the solenoid valve to allow
automatic selection of clean water for clean water calibration and diagnostics.
Sample/Clean water is exhausted from the monitor via the outlet (6) after passing through
the measuring sensor. A manual cell clean unit (3) is provided which must be used in
accordance with the maintenance requirements in Section 5. The throttle (9) can be used
to increase or decrease the back pressure in the cell. This is especially useful if air is present in
the sample.

separator to minimise response delays. Under no circumstances should the distance
between the monitor and the separator exceed a distance that would result in a response
time of more than 20 seconds and breaching IMO regulations.

Mounting Note: if the monitor is sold with Bilge Water Separator, It is pre-installed.

Mount the SMART CELL - BILGE by means of 4 x M6 bolts on to a rigid vertical surface and
preferably with the display panel of the monitor at operator eye level.
