The extra 500L over the 1000L model suits busier kitchens and longer service periods between pump-outs. It is rated for above ground and below ground installation and is an approved listed pre-treatment product for food businesses, manufactured by Aline Pumps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemoves fats, oils, grease and suspended solids from trade waste\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1500L polyethylene tank, model KGT1500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for both above ground and below ground installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproved listed pre-treatment for food businesses under MPT\/AGA\/1500L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal pipework directs flow to the base of the tank to avoid re-suspending settled sludge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e600mm square manhole for access and servicing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLonger interval between pump-outs than a 1000L unit at the same kitchen load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRisers available on request for deeper below-ground installs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandles raw sewage, trade waste, effluent and stormwater\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2925mm x 710mm footprint, same width and depth as the 1000L model\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCan be configured in dual inline arrangements for higher flows\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0816\/5621\/7891\/files\/kgt1500-feature.png?v=1784359177\" alt=\"Kwikflo KGT1500 1500L Grease Arrestor features and specifications\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMore Capacity for Busier Kitchens\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCommercial kitchens push a constant load of fats, oils and grease into their drainage.

Without this, incoming water would mix the tank contents and carry separated material back toward the outlet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside the tank, the wastewater slows and separates into three layers. Sludge and heavier solids settle into the base of the unit, grease is trapped and floats to the surface, and the treated liquid in the middle is discharged from the grease arrestor to sewer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbove Ground or Below Ground Installation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe KGT1500 is rated for both above ground and below ground installation, so it can sit in a plant room, service yard, or be buried under a trafficable area with the appropriate lid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere a single 1500L unit is not enough, the Kwikflo range supports dual inline and dual parallel configurations, and steps up to fibre-reinforced polymer models at 2000L and above.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eStraightforward Servicing Access\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 600mm square manhole gives access for pump-out and inspection.
