Automatic Solids Transfer Grease Removal System

Big Dipper Automatic Solids Transfer (AST)
series units provide full automatic grease removal and incidental solids handling.  Incidental food solids less than 1” (13mm) in diameter are separated and flushed out of the system automatically by the Automatic Solids Transfer component.  These incidental solids are typical of those that are rinsed off of plates before going to a dishwasher.  The Eductor Pump of the AST is not designed to handle non-food products such as plastic, rubber or metal items.  Like the IS series, the AST series has a skimming wheel system inside the unit which skims the grease & oils out of the retention area when activated by an integral timer.  AST models pretreat kitchen waste water flows of 25, 75 and 125 gallons per minute.  The W-250-AST treats point source kitchen flows like those found in fast food restaurants and small-flow facilities.  The W-750-AST and W-1250-AST Grease Removal Units are geared towards larger facilities like hospitals or casinos, where grease removal from multiple kitchen drain points is important.
