rate of up to 4 GPM Model LSR-4 or 8 GPM Model LSR-8.
The first air pump(s) shall provide suction for bringing the liquid from
a collection point to the filtration unit. The
second air pump(s) shall provide a pressurized discharge for the liquid. b.

collecting liquid to within 1/8” of the surface upon which it rests
Pit Pick-Up – Used for picking up water out of a pit or other
container, the Pit Pick-Up shall be designed of a non-corrosive poly material
and shall be located in a pit, tank or sump where liquid is collected.
The poly material shall be perforated to act as a straining device to
prevent debris from being sucked into the filtration unit.
It shall also be provided with a float mechanism which will automatically
add fresh water, if the water level in the pit, tank or sump runs critically
low.
Floating Fluid Pick-Up – Used for drawing off the surface layer
of liquid in tanks, pits and sumps, the Floating Pick-Up shall be designed of
non-corrosive material and shall be designed so that it floats on the surface of
a liquid and can slowly draw off the surface layer to remove oils and other
lighter liquids.
Adjustable Magnetic Pick-Up – Used for mounting to the wall of a
steel tank, the Adjustable Magnetic Pick-Up shall be designed so that it can
readily be positioned so that it can either draw off the top surface layer from
the liquid or be positioned to draw liquid from a point under the surface of the
liquid. IV.
Operating Principals: The LITTLE SUCKER Filtration Unit a.
The
LITTLE SUCKER Filtration Units shall operate at a rate of up to 4 GPM on Model
LSR-4 from an air supply of a minimum of 7 CFM @ 70 PSI or at a rate of up to
8 GPM on Model LSR-8 from an air supply of a minimum of 14 CFM @ 70 PSI

The air source shall be provided from a dedicated air compressor mounted
on the trailer. b. The
LITTLE SUCKER shall draw liquid through the “Unique Suction Device” and
through an additional strainer into the filtration unit for further filtration
of the liquid by one or more air pumps rated for the flow requirements of the
application. Once in the filtration
unit, the liquid shall be further filtered prior to being stored for reuse or
discharged. c. A
second series of one of more air pumps shall be provided with the filtration
console to provide pressurized filtrate out of the filtration system rated for
the flow requirements of the application. d. Standard

Statement of Water QualityWater
Quality Statement
: The discharge quality of The
LITTLE SUCKER water recovery system will have a direct relationship to the
water quality of the wash water effluent and proper maintenance performed.
Heavy emulsifying detergents, chemicals and lack of proper maintenance can
cause the water quality to vary such that it may not meet acceptable levels in
a given application of for discharge to sewer. Under
normal operation, with proper maintenance, water quality cannot be guaranteed,
but the system will:
Intention of Filtration
System Design: The LITTLE SUCKER
was designed to be a water recovery system to be used to recover the effluent
from typical washing and a host of other applications and clean it up for
reuse as gray water. Cleaning
Technologies Incorporated into The LITTLE SUCKER are:
Additional
filters, which can be incorporated into these systems can be designed to
eliminate or reduce the following: Algae, Aluminum, Arsenic,
Bacteria, Benzene, Bicarbonate, BOD, Cadmium, Carbon
Tetrachloride, Chloride, Chlorobenzene, Chloroethane, Chloroform, COD, Copper,
Dichlorobenzene, Dichlorethylene, Dichloropropene, Dinitro-Phenol, Dinitro-Toluene,
Ethylbenzene, Flourine, FOG (Fats, Oils, Grease), Gasoline, Hydrogen, Hydrogen
Gas, Iron, Magnesium, Manganese, Methyl Chloride, Methyl Isobutyl Ketone,
Naphthalene, Nitrobenzene, Nitrophenol, Phenol,
Radon, Suspended Solids, Tetrahydofuran,
Tin, Toluene, Trichlorobenzene, Trichiorethylene, Urea, Xylene The LITTLE SUCKER water
recovery systems are manufactured to provide the latest in filtering
technologies available in the market today. All water coming into the
filtering system will be filtered and processed back to "Wash Quality
Water" standards and additional filtration can be added to remove or reduce
those contaminants mentioned above. Detergent and other chemicals
may not be entirely removed and additional filtering may be required, if removal
is desired. Water, which is intended to be overflowed to sewer, can
be cleaned to this quality prior to discharge to sewer. Due to the
varied nature of effluent water encountered and pumped into the systems and
because the assurance and quality of routine maintenance cannot be guaranteed, a
guarantee of a specific water quality is difficult to provide.
