The distance from the top of grade to the tank bottom will be your reference for measuring solids depth. Make sure you record
which units (inches or centimeters) that you are using.
A Static Water Level to Floor Level = in or cm (circle one)
Make sure the tank is full of water and not backed up. Record this measurement after it is pumped out and refilled with clean
water. With no flow running into the separator, open the cover and put the zero end of a measuring tape or rod on top of the
liquid surface, and measure to the top of the floor level. Enter this into your records.
If during a routine inspection the water level is unusually high, there may be a blockage downstream. The water level should
not rise as high as the tank neck and extension collar through the accessway.
B Bottom of Tank to Floor Level = in or cm (circle one)
Measure from the tank bottom to the floor level and record the height in your separator maintenance records. Record this
measurement after the tank is pumped out and before it is refilled with clean water. Shine a flashlight into the dark tank to
visually check that the measuring tape is contacting the bottom of the tank.
