Connections to the tank must NOT be PVC. - Use Polypropylene, Bronze/Brass or HDPE (check tank type compatibility). Ensure there is sufficient room above the tank to allow removal of the screw-in Access Cover and for cleaning of the tank (see below) - (tank can be removed entirely for cleaning, in which case pipe connections will have to be disconnectable types such as barrel unions or rubber sleeve connectors). Connect sink waste outlet into the tank Inlet nozzle via a typical waste trap (not PVC). Connect tank Outlet to waste in accordance with plumbing regulations. Connect tank Vent and route to atmosphere in accordance with plumbing regulations. Fit a stop valve to the Drain nipple located at the tank end or side wall (valve not supplied do not use PVC). Fit a stop valve to the Sample nipple located on tank outlet pipe tail (valve not supplied do not use PVC). Cleaning Guidelines The Interceptor should be maintained regularly to ensure trouble-free service. The tank is designed to arrest waste product such as solvents / hydrocarbons in order to prevent contamination of downstream drainage systems. Collected waste product is in the form of lighter than water solvents / hydrocarbons or formed as sludge on the floor of the tank. Solvents/Oils can be drained off via the drain nipple. Sludge should be removed from the tank when empty. In both cases waste should disposed of by whatever means is allowed in the area. The waste product should be regarded as hazardous and must be disposed of in a correct manner. The waste product and liquid contained in the tank is the product of whatever has been fed to the tank and we recommend this point be considered before accessing the tank at all. Cleaning of the tank should be performed by a competent person. Wear appropriate PPE (gloves, safety glasses, breathing mask, etc.) Unscrew removable Access Cover. Open drain valve to allow liquid waste to empty into a container for correct disposal. Remove sludge waste from the tank and if necessary use a small spade or scoop to assist. Wash the interior tank walls with a trigger hose fitted with a spray nozzle. Replace access cover and ensure drain valves are closed. Improved access may be gained by removing the tank from its installed location. Before removing the tank, give some thought to the weight of the tank when full of water or waste product. (A standard 100lt tank will weigh approximately 105KG). We recommend the tank be drained or syphoned out in order to reduce the weight before attempting to move it. When re-installing the tank, make sure all connections are tight and that valves are fitted and closed before re-filling. Test all plumbing connections and the water-tight integrity of the tank after re-filling. VIKING INSTALLATION GUIDELINES - PETROL & OIL, SOLVENT & OIL- ABOVE GROUND TANKS 1 P a g e

Cleaning Guidelines The Petrol & Oil Interceptor is manufactured from Polyethylene and is designed to be fit for purpose. It is manufactured in accordance to Trade Waste regulations. Polyethylene withstands chemical attack and is impervious to corrosive substances in hydrocarbons that would normally degrade material such as concrete. The Interceptor should be maintained regularly to ensure trouble-free service. The tank is designed to arrest waste product such as Petrol, Oil and other hydrocarbons in order to prevent contamination of downstream drainage systems. Collected waste product is in the form of lighter than water hydrocarbons and oils or formed as sludge on the floor of the tank. Tank contents including Hydrocarbons are pumped out on regular intervals according to the trade waste agreement established with the customer. Accumulated sludge will also be removed. The waste product is regarded as hazardous and must be disposed of in a correct manner. The waste product and liquid contained in the tank is the product of whatever has been fed to the tank and we recommend this point be considered before accessing the tank at all. Cleaning of the tank should be performed by a registered waste removal company. Wear appropriate PPE (gloves, safety glasses, breathing mask, etc.) Remove Access Cover using lifting handles. Pump out the tank. Wash the interior tank walls with a trigger hose fitted with a spray nozzle. Prior to replacing the access covers apply grease to mating surfaces.

5 INSTALLATION & CLEANING GUIDELINES ABOVE GROUND TANKS ABN Woodlands Drive BRAESIDE VIC 3195 P F E info@vikingplastics.com.au Industrial Plastic Fabrication The information provided herein is informative only and it applies to the above-ground installation of plastic fabricated Trade Waste Pre-Treatment Tanks. As rules and regulations differ from region to region, prior to proceeding we recommend the installing person verify that the procedures mentioned in this document satisfy the requirements of the local Authorities. Trade Waste Authorities state that above-ground tanks must be installed on a level concrete pad. Any portion of a tank installed below ground should be surrounded with a minimum of 100mm thick concrete walls and base. Siting Considerations 1. The tank should be located as close as practical to the source of contaminated water. 2. Ensure ease of accessibility for maintenance. 3. A water tap for the purpose of wash-down should be located nearby and must be fitted with backflow prevention device. 4. Grease Traps should not be installed in direct sunlight. Site Preparation 5. Verify that inlet, outlet and vent pipe levels match the level of the pipe spigots on the tank. 6. If not already in place pour or install a level concrete pad for the tank to sit on. The concrete should be a minimum of 28mpa. Tanks is excess of 2000lt should have a pad at least 100mm thick. 7. The concrete slab or pad must support the entire length and width of the tank. 8. Do not remove the steel support frame (if fitted) from the tank. 9. If the tank is installed in an area exposed to vehicle traffic, bollards should be positioned to protect the tank. Connections 10. Connections to be in accordance with Trade Waste and Plumbing Industry Commission guidelines and to comply with ASNZ The Trade Waste department of the local water authority must approve all grease trap and trade waste interceptor installations prior to work commencing. Interceptors installed without approval may not be accepted for use. Grease Trap Cleaning 12. Clean outs to be performed in accordance with the trade waste agreement with your local water authority. 13. The contractor is to un-screw the screw-in access cover (if fitted). 14. Contents to be pumped out via the suction hose attached to the pump truck. 15. With the suction hose still inside the tank chamber the entire internal surface is to be hosed down to remove residual grease build up. 16. Tank walls may be scrapped down to remove any solid accumulation. 17. Lid seals should be wiped clean, the seal checked for integrity and the screw-in access covers replaced or clamp down lids reinstalled. VIKING INSTALLATION GUIDELINES- ABOVE GROUND TANKS 1 P a g e

7 INSTALLATION GUIDELINES BELOW GROUND TANKS - PANELTIM ABN Woodlands Drive BRAESIDE VIC 3195 P F E info@vikingplastics.com.au Industrial Plastic Fabrication The information provided herein is informative only and it applies to the below-ground installation of Paneltim fabricated Trade Waste Pre-Treatment Tanks. As rules and regulations differ from region to region, prior to proceeding we recommend the installer verify that the procedures mentioned in this document satisfy the requirements of the local Authorities and you follow appropriate and approved excavation practices. In most cases a geo-technical report will determine back-fill requirements. Paneltim tanks do not need to be surrounded with concrete (apart from 150x150 plinth). Installations subject to Heavy traffic loads or commercial vehicles must be surrounded with reinforced concrete pavement at least 2mt in each direction (depth to be determined by others). Siting Considerations 1. The tank should be located as close as practical to source of contaminated water. 2. Ease of accessibility for maintenance. 3. Water tap for the purpose of wash-down should be located nearby and be fitted with backflow prevention device. 4. The load-rating of the tank cover must be adequate for the expected traffic conditions. 5. For some excavations you may require a geotechnical report for ground stability and off-sets from buildings. These recommendations will determine back-fill requirements. Also determine the location of underground services before you dig. Excavation & Preparation 6. The ideal excavation size will be at least 150mm clear of the tank base and all four sides. 7. Allow for thickness of cover height when excavating. 8. In the event that the sub-surface earth is particularly wet of soft, the earth under the tank should be compacted and, if necessary, filled with a layer of 20mm crushed rock at least 150mm deep. (additional to 150mm back-fill material) 9. Verify that inlet, outlet and vent pipe levels match the level of the pipe spigots on the tank. Placing Tank 10. Fill bottom of excavation with a minimum of 150mm crushed rock (6mm aggregate) 11. Place tank on top of crushed rock base. 12. Ensure tank is plumb and pipe tails are connected with rubber sleaved joiners. 13. Backfill with 6mm aggregate evenly around the tank to prevent lateral movement. 14. Backfill in layers approx. 150mm deep and lightly compact (by foot is acceptable). 15. Backfill to 150mm from top of tank. (top 150mm and tank lid is to be concreted in place). 16. Lightly compact crushed rock do not over compact. Over-compacting may cause tank walls to bulge inward. Cover 17. The load-rating of the access cover must be adequate for the expected traffic conditions. 18. The access lids will only fit into the frame one way ensure the frame is orientated correctly to provide easy access to the inside of the tank when the covers are removed. 19. Place the frame on top of the tank flange and concrete-in to required surface level. 20. Apply grease to the mating surfaces of the lid sections. This helps to prevent corrosion, assists lid removal and helps create a gas tight seal. 21. If the cover is a concrete infill type, pour concrete into the cover and trowel off to the required level.

9 INSTALLATION & CLEANING GUIDELINES BELOW GROUND TANKS- THIN SKIN ABN Woodlands Drive BRAESIDE VIC 3195 P F E info@vikingplastics.com.au Industrial Plastic Fabrication The information provided herein is informative only and it applies to the below-ground installation of Thin Skin fabricated Trade Waste Pre-Treatment Tanks. As rules and regulations differ from region to region, prior to proceeding we recommend the installing person verify that the procedures mentioned in this document satisfy the requirements of the local Authorities and building off-sets. In most cases a geo-technical report is required. Trade Waste Authorities state that below-ground tanks must be surrounded with concrete (minimum 100mm thick walls and base). Siting Considerations 1. The tank should be located as close as practical to source of contaminated water. 2. Ease of accessibility for maintenance. 3. Water tap for the purpose of wash-down should be located nearby and be fitted with a backflow prevention device. 4. The load-rating of the tank cover must be adequate for the expected traffic conditions. i.e. Pedestrian = light-duty, passenger vehicles = medium-duty or heavy commercial vehicles = heavy-duty. Excavation & Preparation 5. The ideal excavation size will leave at least a 100mm cavity on all four sides and underneath the tank. 6. In the event that the sub-surface earth is particularly wet of soft, the earth under the tank should be compacted and, if necessary, filled with 20mm crushed rock to 100mm below base of tank. A geo-technical report may be required. 7. Verify that inlet, outlet and vent pipe levels match the level of the pipe spigots on the tank. 8. Concrete to be poured around the tank should be a minimum of 32mpa. Bracing and Pouring Concrete 9. Pour 100mm concrete pad, (mesh-reinforced if local conditions require it). 10. Insert Y12 reinforcing bars through holes in the tank keying strips. 11. Place tank on top of concrete pad. 12. Install internal bracing (required to prevent collapse of the tank walls under the weight of wet concrete). We suggest using Timber Flooring or Structural Plywood and timber noggins at maximum 500mm centres for this purpose (see diagrams overleaf). Alternatively use stud and noggin frames spaced at maximum 500mm centres vertical and horizontal. 13. We recommend installing end wall bracing for tank widths exceeding 500mm. 14. Ensure walls are well supported, plumb and that bracing will not move or dislodge during concrete pour. 15. Pour concrete in at least two stages. Stage 1 to a low level to set the tank in position and to ensure it will not float. 16. Pour concrete evenly all around to prevent tank lateral movement. The tank may be progressively filled with water during the concrete pour to maintain equal pressures and to help prevent the tank from floating. 17. Do not remove the internal tank bracing until the concrete has adequately cured. Cover 18. The load-rating of the access cover must be adequate for the expected traffic conditions. 19. The access lids will only fit into the frame one way ensure the frame is orientated correctly to provide easy access to the inside of the tank when the covers are removed. 20. Place the frame on top of the tank flange and concrete-in to required surface level. 21. Apply grease to the mating surfaces of the lid sections. This helps to prevent corrosion, assists lid removal and helps create a gas tight seal. 22. If the cover is a concrete infill type, pour concrete into the cover and trowel off to the required level.
