FLOW DIAGRAM
As pressure washers are being operated, used water ows into the Wash Water Catch Pit (1). From there, it moves
to the 3-Stage Collection Pit (2). Heavy debris falls to the bottom of the pit where it is trapped by a weir which is
designed to stop heavy debris while allowing the remaining water to move into the Sump Pit (3). The Sump Pump (4)
draws water from the Sump Pit (3) and brings it through the Water Inlet Flow Control Valve 1. This adjustable valve
is used to regulate the ow of water entering the water clarication tank. A Flow Meter (5) is positioned just ahead of
the water clarication tank. The water enters the water clarication tank through the Inlet Tee (6) and is directed down
to the Diverted Tee (7). From there the water is deected downward by the Solids Deection Cone (8), then to the
Solids Separation Chamber (9). The Solids Separation Chamber (9) allows the velocity of the water to slow so that
any suspended solids settle to the bottom. The water then rises up through the Oil Coalescing Cones (10).
WCP FLOW DIAGRAM-080700-JJ
Mi-T-M
WCP-SERIES Operator's Manual 9
1) The non-emulsied oil molecules in the water adhere to the Oil Coalescing Cones (10). When
enough oil molecules attach to each other, they form oil droplets. The oil droplets are carried along
with the water through the Top Separator Cone (11) and into the Oil Separation Chamber (12),
where the oil droplets oat to the surface. The Oil Skimmer (13) is positioned near the top of the Oil
Separation Chamber (12) which allows the thin layer of surface oil and water to drain into the Waste
Oil Decanter (14). Since oil is lighter than water, the oil oats to the top and is released from the
Waste Oil Decanter (14) when the Waste Oil Release Valve 2 is opened. Excess water is returned to
the Wash Water Catch Pit (1).
2) The solids that accumulate in the bottom of the Solids Separation Chamber (9) should be regularly
drained through the Solids Drain Valve 3 into the Sludge Tub (15) where the solids are ltered out
and the water is returned to the Wash Water Catch Pit (1). The Filter Bag (16) is biodegradable and
may be tied o and disposed of as it is lled. If the solids accumulated at the bottom of the Solids
Separation Chamber (9) are unable to drain, open Valve 4 and Valve 5 to push the solids towards
the Sludge Tub (15). If the solids are still unable to drain, open Valve 6 and Valve 7 to break up the
solids on the inside of the Solids Separation Chamber (9). When the solids from the Solids
Separation Chamber (9) is empted, close Valve 4, Valve 5, Valve 6 and Valve 7.
3) An Anti-siphon Device (17) is attached to the Inlet Tee (5) to relieve any suction that may develop
when the Sump Pump (4) is turned o, preventing any siphoning of water back out of the water
clarication tank.
Water then ows through the Ozone Pump Valve 8 down past the Sensor Probes (18 & 19) then into the Ozone
Pump (20) where it is forced through the Ozone Injector (21) and back up into the Oil Separation Chamber (12).
(See “pH & ORP Control System” pg. 16 for details.)
1) Ozone is generated by oxygen molecules passing through a corona discharge Ozone Generator
(22). This is an electric charge which causes the oxygen atoms to become ozone molecules. Since
ozone molecules are extremely unstable, they only retain their structure for a very short time. For this
reason, ozone cannot be stored, but must be continually produced by the Ozone Generator (22).
2) Ozone kills bacteria approximately 3,000 times faster than chlorine.
3) The ow of ozone is controlled by the Ozone Flow Control Valve 9.
Water then ows from the Oil Separation Chamber (12) through the Outlet Ring (23) and into the Outlet Y (24).
The Outlet Tee (24) directs the water into the Product Tank (25) where the Filter Pump (26) sends the water to
the Filter Control Valve 10 which regulates the amount of water going into the ltering system. A Flow Meter (27) is
positioned just ahead of the Multi-Media Filter (28) to monitor ow. (Flow should be set at no more than the rating of
the machine.) The Multi-Media Filter Valve 11 has many settings, with only two being utilized: Filter and Backwash.
When in the “Filter” Position, water ows into the Multi-Media Filter (28) from the top and passes through several
layers of ltering product as it moves toward the bottom. By the time the water reaches the bottom to the lter tank,
the contaminants have been ltered down to approximately 30 microns. Laterals are positioned at the bottom of
the lter tank, which absorb the ltered water and move it up through the center and out the top of the tank. From
there, the water ows into the bottom of the Cartridge Filter (29). A Cartridge Filter Drain Valve 12 is located at the
bottom of the Cartridge Filter (29) for lter cleaning purposes. This valve should be closed during the water recycling
treatment operation. On initial start-up, the Air Bleed Valve (30) must be opened to let air escape while the Cartridge
Filter (29) lls with water. Once full, and the Air Bleed Valve (30) is closed, the water passes through the Reemay
Polyester Fiber lter which reduces the contaminants down to 20 microns. The water moves out of the Cartridge
Filter (29) and into the Polishing Filter Valve 13. This valve has many settings, two of which are utilized. “Filter” and
“Backwash” When in the “Filter” position, water ows into the Polishing Filter (31) from the top and passes through
the activated carbon or ltering agent. As it moves toward the bottom, the activated carbon or ltering agent absorbs
odor and contaminants while “polishing” the water. Laterals are positioned at the bottom of the tank, which absorb
the water and move it up through the center and out the top of the tank. From there, the water moves to the Product
Tank (32) where the recycled water is held until usage is required. When needed, water is pulled from the Product
Tank (25) by the Transfer Pump (33) and moved into the Pressure Tank (34). This tank holds water at 30-50
PSI/2.0-3.5 Bar. Water moves directly from this tank to the water discharge outlets upon demand.
If water is needed for washing, water is sent to the Outlet To Pressure Washer (35).
If the Wash Water Catch Pit (1) water level is low, water is added through the Fresh Water Makeup (38).
If the Wash Water Catch Pit (1) water level is too high, water is sent to the Rain Water Overow (36).
If the recycle timer turns on, water is sent through the Recycled Wash Water (37) to the Wash Water Catch
Pit (1).

PRESTART PROCEDURES:
1. Position the valves on the WCP water recycling treatment system in the "Start-up Mode".
-Water Inlet Flow Control Valve: Turn valve one rotation short of completely closed.
-Filter Control Valve: Turn valve one rotation short of completely closed.
-Multi-Media Filter Valve: Turn valve to "Filter".
-Polishing Filter Valve: Turn valve to "Filter".
-Cartridge Filter Drain Valve: Turn valve completely closed.
-Air Bleed Valve: Turn valve open.
-Oil Release Valve: Turn valve completely closed.
-Ozone Pump Valve: Turn valve open.
-Pressurized Clean-Out Valves: Turn valves completely closed.
2. Be certain all hoses are securely connected.
3. Be certain the incoming air tube to the Ozone Generator is not obstructed.
4. Be certain all switches on the Control Panel and Ozone Generator are in the "OFF" position.
5. Turn on the power supply. The Power Indicator Light should glow.
START-UP:
1. Ensure water supply to the Fresh Water Makeup is turned on and pit is lled with water. If the pit is not full, water
will ll the Product Tank and overow through the Product Tank Overow and back to the Sump Pit.
2. To prime the Sump Pump, remove the lid over the Basket Strainer and ll the Basket Strainer and the plumbing
from Sump Pit to the Sump Pump, then replace the lid.
3. Turn on the Sump Pump Switch; water will ow into the Clarier Tank.
4. Flow can be increased by opening the Water Inlet Flow Control Valve and reading the Inlet Flowmeter. Fill the
Clarier Tank.
5. After the water lls the Solids Separation Chamber, it will begin to ow through the Top Separator Cone and ll
the Oil Separation Chamber.
6. As water lls the Oil Separation Chamber, the Ozone Pump will prime.
7. When the Oil Separation Chamber is full, the water will begin to ow through the Outlet Ring and into the Outlet
Y.
8. The Outlet Y directs the water into the Holding Tank where it is ready to be processed.
9. As the water lls the Holding Tank, it will begin to ow out the Overow Drain at the top of the tank. At this point,
ow can be adjusted to the rated ow rate with the Water Inlet Flow Control Valve.
10. Ensure that the Ozone Pump Valve is open and turn on the Ozone System Switch located on the Ozone Generator.
The ozone system is working properly when air bubbles are seen in the Oil Separation Chamber. if no air bubbles
are observed, turn o the Ozone System Switch and loosen the union after the Ozone Pump until the pump is
primed. (The Ozone Flow Control Valve is set at the factory and should not need adjusting.) The Ozone Generator
Switch can now be turned on.
11. Turn on the Filter Pump Switch. The Filter Pump will automatically turn o when the Product Tank is full of
water.
12. As water ows to the lters, use the Filter Control Valve to adjust the water ow to the GPM rating of the Water
Treatment System. Check the Filter Flowmeter located ahead of the Multi-Media Filter.
13. Water will begin to ow from the Multi-Media Filter to the Cartridge Filter. As water ows through the Multi-Media
Filter, air will automatically bleed from the Multi-Media Filter to the Cartridge Filter.
14. Air will release from the Air Bleed Valve as the Cartridge Filter lls. Close the Air Bleed Valve when water begins
to exit from it. This indicates the Cartridge Filter is lled and water will begin owing to the Polishing Filter. Since
it may take some time for the air to bleed out of the Multi-Media Filter, occasionally open the Air Bleed Valve while
the Filter Pump is operating to relieve any air buildup. For optimum eciency, the Air Bleed Valve may need to
be periodically opened to relieve any air that builds up in the Cartridge Filter during operation.
15. As water ows through the Polishing Filter, air will automatically bleed from the Polishing Filter to the Product
Tank.
16. When the Product Tank is full and the Filter Pump turns o, prime the Transfer Pump by opening the Outlet to
Pressure Washer valve until water exits.
17. Turn on the Transfer Pump Switch to allow water to ow into the Pressure Tank.
18. Water is now completely cycled in the system.

PREPARATION
pH AND ORP CONTROL SYSTEM:
Proper pH and ORP levels must be maintained in the pit to prevent growth of bacteria, algae, odors, etc. Water must be
chemically balanced to eectively recycle. The eectiveness of Safe 0
3
in the water depends on the pH level.
-The optimum pH level to add Safe 0
3
is 6.5 - 6.8.
-As the pH level rises to 7.5, about 5% more Safe 0
3
must be added to achieve the same ORP reading.
-At a pH level of 8.0 and above, a large amount of Safe 0
3
must be added to increase the ORP reading.
As excess water ows through the Ozone System , it moves past the pH and ORP Sensor Probes before returning
to the Oil Separation Chamber . The Sensor Probes analyze the pH and ORP levels in the water.
a. pH Sensor Probe. This probe analyzes the pH (acidity & alkalinity) in the water. If the water is too acidic (low
pH) the acid will breakdown the iron present in the water to a liquid form, thus causing rusty looking water in the
system. If the water is too alkaline (high pH) the bacteria killing potential of the ORP agent will be drastically
lowered.
b. ORP Sensor Probe. This probe analyzes the Oxidation Reduction Potential (ORP). This reading states amount
of bacteria killing agent in the water.
The probes analyze the pH and ORP levels of the water and display the readings on the digital pH and ORP Meters.

PREPARATION
INSTALLATION OF PH AND ORP PROBES:
1. Turn o the Ozone System Switch and close the Ozone Pump
Valve.
2. Locate the probe grips in the Ozone System plumbing and
unscrew the nut from one of the grips.
3. Remove one of the probes (pH or ORP) from its storage
container. (Be certain to save the container for probe storage
during winterizing.)
4. Carefully slide the probe grip nut over the glass probe.
5. Gently push the probe through the probe grip approximately 2
inches and tighten the nut onto the probe grip.
6. Repeat process for the remaining probe.
7. Immediately open the Ozone Pump Valve to rell the plumbing
with water.
THE PROBES CANNOT BE ALLOWED TO DRY OUT.
8. Turn on the Ozone System Switch.
9. Turn on the pH/ORP Meters Switch.
CAUTION
RISK OF PROBE DAMAGE!
-DO NOT ALLOW PROBES TO BE EXPOSED TO AIR. ONCE PROBES ARE IN PLACE, TURN WATER
ON IMMEDIATELY.
-HANDLE PROBES CAREFULLY AS THEY ARE MADE OF GLASS.
-DO NOT ALLOW PROBES TO BE EXPOSED TO FREEZING ENVIRONMENTS. KEEP THE ORIGINAL
CONTAINERS IN WHICH THE PROBES WERE SHIPPED. THEY WILL BE NEEDED FOR PROBE
STORAGE DURING WINTERIZING.

output contacts and the load should not exceed 1500 VDC.
2. OUTPUT LOAD:
The current through the relay output contacts should not exceed 5 Amp at 115 VAC and 2.5 Amp at 230 VAC in order
not to cause permanent damage to the relay contacts. This rating is specied for resistive loads only.
3. RELAY ACTION, RELAY SET POINT AND HYSTERESIS VALUE:
If the relay action is set to HIGH, the relay will turn ON at (Set Point +1/2 Hysteresis ), and will turn OFF at (Set Point
-1/2 Hysteresis ).
If the relay action is set to LOW, the relay will turn ON at (Set Point -1/2 Hysteresis ), and will turn OFF at (Set Point
+1/2 Hysteresis ).
There are two Independent relays the user can bind to the pH, ABSOLUTE mV or RELATIVE mV mode. The user can
only bind the two relays to one reading mode at a time. The user can change this anytime by changing option at the
setting mode.
Note:
1. The ideal set point range for pH is 0.00 to 16.00 pH.

water and the metering pump will activate when the PH or ORP is out of the range of the desired set point.
NOTE: If the metering pump is activated but the rollers fail to spin, the rollers of the pump might be stuck. You
should be able to manually spin the roller by hand to get these started. Add lubricant to the rollers if the prob-
lem persists.
FINAL pH AND ORP SYSTEM SETUP:
1. Place the hoses from the pH and ORP Pumps into the Adjustment Chemicals.
a. The recommended pH chemical for this system is aluminum sulfate.
b. The recommended ORP chemical for this system is bleach or sodium hypochlorite at 5%.
2. Turn on the pH and ORP Pump Switches. Chemicals will be inserted into the water as necessary.

SETTING OF THE WATER RECYCLING TIMER:
1. Dormant water creates bacteria buildup and odor. If the water recycling
treatment system is going to be dormant for more than six (6) hours, a water
recycle mode should be setup.
2. The water recycling treatment system should be set to recycle in accordance
with the unit dormant time.
Example 1: If the unit will be dormant for approximately 10 hours, the recycle
time should be set to run for 3-4 hours half way between the
dormant time.
Dormant time: 8:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m
Recycle time: 11:00 p.m. to 3:00 a.m.
Example 2: If the unit will be dormant for approximately 3 hours, the recycle
time should be set to run for 1 hour half way between the dormant
time.
Dormant time: 2:00 a.m. to 5:00 a.m
Recycle time: 3:00 a.m. to 4:00 a.m.
NOTE: If odor is still present, increase recycle times.
3. Disconnect power to the system and open the Control Panel. Located
inside the Control Panel , the water recycling timer consists of individual
pins which surround a 24 hour clock display.
a. Turn the dial until the arrow points to the correct time.
b. Each pin represents 1/2 hour of water recycling time.
c. Using your ngertips, pull the amount of pins needed for water recycling
time to correspond to the clock on the timer.
d. The water recycling treatment system will automatically recycle during
the set time.
4. Close the Control Panel and reconnect power supply.

WASTE OIL DECANTER:
1. The Oil Skimmer removes the top layer of oil and water from the Oil Separation
Chamber and sends it to the Waste Oil Decanter.
2. As the Waste Oil Decanter lls with the oil/water mixture, the oil will oat to
the top while the water remains on the bottom.
3. The water then moves up the standpipe, through the Oil Decanter Outlet,
and back to the Wash Water Catch Pit to be recycled again.
4. As oil accumulates, it will have to periodically be removed from the Waste
Oil Decanter.
a. Place a 5 gallon bucket below the hose on the Waste Oil Release Valve
b. Open the Waste Oil Release Valve and allow oil to ow into the 5 gallon
bucket. Turn o valve when water begins owing into the bucket.
c. Dispose of oil according to EPA Standard
SOLIDS COLLECTION AREA:
The solids collection area of the Solids Separation Chamber will need to be
cleaned occasionally to prevent overow of solids into the Holding Tank. Do not
use pressure washers while performing this maintenance.
1. Ensure the Sludge Hose is connected to the Sludge Tub and the Sludge
Outlet Assembly and a Filter Bag is secured in the Sludge Tub.
2. By opening the Solids Drain Valve, sludge from the Solids Separation Chamber
will enter the SludgeTub.
3. If the solids accumulated at the bottom of the Solids Separation Chamber
are unable to drain, open Valve 4 and Valve 5 to push the solids towards the
Sludge Tub. If the solids are still unable to drain, open Valve 6 and Valve 7 to
break up the solids on the inside of the Solids Separation Chamber. When
the solids from the Solids Separation Chamber is empted, close Valve 4,
Valve 5, Valve 6 and Valve 7.
4. As sludge is forced into the disposable Filter Bag, solids in the Sludge are
retained by the disposable Filter Bag and uids drain out into the area created
by the Riser Plate.
5. The remaining water drains out of the bottom of the Sludge Tub through Sludge
Tub Outlet and back to the Wash Water Catch Pit.
6. When the Filter Bag is lled with accumulated solids, loosen the Hose Clamp
used to retain the Filter Bag, tie the Filter Bag o and dispose of in a manner
consistent with local and federal regulations.
7. To replace the Filter Bag, bunch up the neck and feed it through the Hose
Clamp, place the Hose Clamp and Filter Bag over the inside nipple on the
inlet coupling and tighten the Hose Clamp.
BACKWASHING OF FILTERS:
1. Backwashing removes debris from the lters and sends the sediments back to
the pit where they will settle. Always backwash the lters if the Indicator Light
or Audio Alarm turns on. The Multi-Media Filter Pressure Gauge should be
checked daily for pressure elevation. When the pressure dierence between
the Multi-Media Filter Pressure Gauge and Cartridge Filter Pressure Gauge
registers more than 10 PSI, the Multi-Media Filter needs to be cleaned even
if the Indictor Light is not lit.
2. Pressure washers cannot be in use when backwashing any lters.
3. When performing backwash maintenance, backwash the Polishing Filter
immediately after backwashing the Multi-Media Filter. When backwashing
is complete, be certain to clean the Cartridge Filter.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION!
Filter Pump Switch must
be turned o before
repositioning any valves
on the Filters! Failure
to do so can cause

MAINTENANCE:
1. Clean pH AND ORP probes every 1-2 months.
a. Shut o sump pump, wait for drain line to dran and loosen aluminum strain relief around probe to remove.
b. Use water or vinegar and a soft cloth or Q-tip to wipe away build up on the probe.
c. Place probe back in line, with tip at center of piping. Tighten strain relief around probe. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
Note: probes will be damaged if they are allowed to dry out. If they will be exposed to air for more than a few
hours keep tip submerged in water or the storage solution that comes with the probe.
Note: probes have a shelf life of about 1 year so it’s recommended to replace the probes yearly.
2. Calibration of pH meter. You should recalibrate the external meter 1 or 2 times a year. You should also always
recalibrate the meter when a pH probe has been replaced. Follow the calibration instructions below for the pH meter.
An electronic calibrator can be used in place of the buer solutions.
MAINTENANCE
WATER TESTING:
Water chemical makeup should be tested on a weekly basis. With the Sump Pump operating, use a test strip, test
the incoming water to the Holding Tank. (Follow the directions given with your test strips.) Use the ow chart below
to check and correct the following:
1. pH: Acidity and alkalinity in the water. Low pH (acidic) will cause rusty looking water.
2. Alkalinity: Dissolvable salts in the water. Too much alkaline causes cloudiness and reduces lter life.
3. Calcium Hardness: Calcium in the water. Too much calcium creates scale buildup in coils of hot water pressure
washers.
4. *Free Chlorine: Chlorine which is not combined with dirt, oils, etc. Controls odor, bacteria and algae formation.
*If using chlorine as a water purifying agent.
