The ULTRACEPT System is the Solution.
The ULTRACEPT Process
The Jay R. Smith Mfg. Co. Ultracept Oil/Water Separation System, 8600 Series,
is an above ground unit that removes free oil from wastewater.
The proprietary Ultracept Oil/Water Separator continuously skims even the slightest sheens of oil from the surface of the water. The skimmed oil is discharged into a
storage tank where it is easily removed for proper disposal. Solids that are collected are discharged through a sludge draw-off valve in the rear of the unit.

The ULTRACEPT Process
Ultracept series separators are used in applications such as:
Service Garages with Engine Maintenance & Rebuild
Industrial Plants
Heavy Equipment Wash
Ground Water Remediation
Truck Wash
Vehicle Wash
Aircraft Maintenance Facilitation
The Ultracept works best in cleaning applications where oil and sediment must be efficiently
removed to very low (PPM) discharge levels. Discharges under 10 PPM have been achieved.

No Coalescing Packs
It is very difficult to find anyone
who wants to clean these plates!
What if you didn't have to deal
with messy, clogged coalescing plates?
The Ultracept System uses no coalescing packs.
While coalescing packs can help separate oil in appropriate applications, in truck wash down areas and other applications with high concentrations of suspended solids mixed with oil and grease, the coalescing packs clog quickly, necessitating maintenance. If maintenance is ignored, clogged coalescing filter packs can cause discharge violations or environmental spills due to unit overflows.

High Separation Efficiency!
The Ultracept design features high separation efficiency without the need for coalescing
filter packs. Ultracept incorporates a proprietary design which takes advantage of the
cohesive quality of water coupled with a patented multi-stage separation process which
enhances separation. Analytical results validate the effectiveness of the Ultracept design.

Continuous Skimming
(Water is used as a carrier)
Competing units use some variation of the “knife edge skimmer” to remove separated oil
from water. This type of skimmer must be manually adjusted and is commonly misadjusted,
resulting in water being skimmed with the recovered oil ( <10% water in the recovered oil
is typically required by the waste oil reclaimers).
In contrast, the Ultracept utilizes a “Continuous Skim” design that skims oil and water as it
enters the skimming chamber. Water is used as a carrier in the skimming process. The skimmed
oil and separated water are deposited in an off-line compartment with extended detention time
allowed for separation. The water that carries the oil to this final treatment compartment is automatically decanted back to the surge pit and the pure oil is collected in the oil compartment for draw-off or for automatic gravity transfer to an adjacent oil storage tank.

How The Ultracept System Can Work For You.
Truck / Maintenance Shop and Wash Area
Water flows from above ground into Smith /ACO trench drains.
The over flow water is piped from the Ultracept back to the collection pit to begin the process over.
The water comes into the Ultracept and passes over baffles that separates the oil from the water.
Water flows from
trench drains into
an underground
collection pit.
The water comes over the baffle and gets pumped above ground into the Ultracept.
The water comes into the collection pit and flows over a baffle to collect large debris.
The water comes in from the baffles chamber and the oil gets collected to be drawn-off while the clean water is returned to the sewer system

Above vs. Below Ground Installations
Many competing companies have only below ground systems. Separating and storing oil below ground is a disadvantage with owner liability for leaky under-ground tanks and contaminated soil. Above ground installations are easier to service and maintain.
Underground units are typically gravity fed but still require a pump to remove the oil and drain the unit. The Ultracept is piped to allow for gravity draining of the entire unit for cleaning. The separated oils flow from the unit via gravity to a storage vessel.

Service and Maintenance
Since Ultracept systems have no moving parts, no coalescing packs to clean and no
filters to change, suggested maintenance is less than 10 minutes a week. When occasional
service is required on an Ultracept (e.g., to remove a heavy sediment layer on bottom on unit),
a drain valve connected to the multiple drain ports on the rear of the unit is simply opened
to drain the unit back to the surge pit. The sediment can then be easily removed (with a wet
vacuum, or equivalent).

The ULTRACEPT System Sizing
The Ultracept unit comes in a variety of sizes to fit virtually any application. Units are available for nominal flow rates of 2, 5, 10, 25, and 45 gallons per minute. Multiple units can also be installed in parallel to handle even higher flow rates.
