Abstract:
1. A method of assembly of a modular oil/grease removal assembly for receiving and holding effluent water containing oil/grease to be removed from the effluent water comprising: identifying an inlet source of effluent water and a downstream drain for grey water; installing a container having an inlet and an outlet; installing a main sectional cover that supports functional apparatus that removes oil/grease from water and discharges oil/grease and that supports a sensor module including a probe extending downwardly into the container below a surface of effluent water to a depth normally below the oil/grease, a sensor in the probe providing electrical indications as to whether the sensor is in proximity to oil/grease or water, and an alarm on the sensor module to provide a human-recognizable indication if the sensor senses that the probe is in proximity to oil/grease rather than the normally-present water; and mounting additional sectional covers to completely cover the container.
