CSI - Model 10 -Fiberglass Underground Oil Water Separators (OWS)
Our performance-proven fiberglass underground storage tank provides the base for our fiberglass underground oil/water separators. Specifically designed to remove hydrocarbons with a specific gravity between 0.68 and 0.95, The CSI-10 model is design-tested and performance-rated. The model number (CSI-10) indicates an effluent quality of (10) parts per million.
- Removes free floating oils and settleable solids for oil/water mixtures to achieve an effluent quality not to exceed 10 ppm (mg/L) of free hydrocarbons.
- Removes free oil droplets required to achieve 10 ppm effluent quality.
- Includes a 30-year internal and external corrosion warranty.
- Includes a 30-year structural warranty when installed according to CSI installation instructions.
- Carries a one-year workmanship and materials warranty on internal separator components and coalescer plates, supports, etc.
All CSI Oil/Water Separator Tanks are designed and tested in accordance with the following criteria:
- Stokes law
- The API manual on disposal of refinery wastes
- API bulletin no. 1630 first edition
- API bulletin no. 421
- UL-1316
- ASTM D-4021

Containment Solutions, Inc. (CSI) provides a full range of products for critical fluids storage and separation for the wide variety of applications necessary in industry today. By combining the resources of Fluid Containment, Inc., the leader in fiberglass underground tank technology, and Hoover Containment, Inc., the leader in steel aboveground fuel storage, we have developed the premier single source supplier for your total fluids system needs. Our goal is to provide innovative Systems Solutions for your critical fluid requirements. In keeping with our goal, Containment Solutions has developed a high-performance state-of-the-art Oil/Water Separator.
Current environmental regulations are a result of the increased awareness and expressed desire by the public to protect and preserve the environment. Our mission was to design, test and manufacture the best Oil/Water Separator possible to meet the current regulations and the needs of industry today.
We began our design process using our performance-proven fiberglass underground storage tank. Fiberglass tanks have a reputation for safe,
long-term containment of petroleum and related products. Fiberglass tanks will not rust. In over 250,000 tank installations throughout the world,
there has not been a single leak due to internal or external corrosion! Our underground tanks are U.L. 1316 listed. To achieve this standard,
Containment Solutions fiberglass underground storage tanks have been subjected to sixteen (16) rigorous tests, including structural, performance
and compatibility testing.
To our underground storage tank, we add stateof-the-art enhanced oleophilic coalescers in a cross-flow configuration resulting in a technically
advanced design!
Containment Solutions’ Oil/Water Separators are available in fiberglass single-wall and double-wall design, ranging from 550 gallon to 40,000 gallon capacities.* The double-wall tanks are also available with the exclusive Hydroguard Hydrostatic Monitoring System. Also, CSI has a full line of steel aboveground and underground oil/water separators. Contact your CSI representative for additional information.
Fiberglass Double-Wall Tank
Rustproof, continuous monitoring, and precision testing capability, with factory installed Hydrostatic monitor and proven performance backed by
Containment Solutions.
Enhanced Coalescer Oil/Water Separator System
State-of-the-art separating system that provides superior performance, easy to clean coalescing plates and modular construction. Plates can be removed from units for cleaning and/or tank entry. This system can remove free oil to achieve a 10 ppm or 15 ppm effluent quality.
Optional Fiberglass Reservoir
The heart of the double-wall tank Hydrostatic Monitor System. When used with factory installed monitoring fluid, this system can be used as a continuous monitor with precision testing capability.
Optional Electronic Monitoring System
Containment Solutions can provide optional electronic equipment that can monitor your double-wall tank and/or the accumulated oil buildup within your tank.
Other Optional Accessories
Containment Solutions can provide additional accessories to complete your underground Oil/Water Separator Tank installation.
Containment Solutions, Inc. Oil/Water Separators are designed to separate free oil and grease and settleable solids from water. The separated oil is retained within the Oil/Water Separator and the clean water is discharged from the Separator. Optional waste oil pump-out systems are available.
Optional Designs Available
- Effluent pump-out systems
- Waste oil pump-out systems
Oil/Water Separators
Each Containment Solutions’ Oil/Water Separator tank is built to exacting standards. All are built using the well proven fiberglass tank technology developed by Containment Solutions more than 30 years ago.
Oil/Water Separator Features:
- Rustproof construction–All tank walls and internal coalescer components are rustproof.
- Oleophilic coalescer plate packs constructed of polypropylene.
- For ease of maintenance, coalescer plates may be removed for cleaning. However, due to their self-cleaning design, maintenance costs may be reduced.
- Technically advanced coalescer layout. For most sizes, our Oil/Water Separator uses a cross flow design. This design results in a more efficient separating system.
Containment Solutions’ Oil/Water Separators Meet or Exceed the Following Performance Claims:
- Removes free floating oils and settleable solids for oil/water mixtures to achieve an effluent quality not to exceed 10 ppm (mg/L) of free hydrocarbons (or 15 ppm if specified).
- Removes free oil droplets required to achieve 10 ppm or 15 ppm effluent quality.
- Includes a 30-year internal and external corrosion warranty.
- Includes a 30-year structural warranty.
- Carries a one-year workmanship and materials warranty on internal separator components and coalescer plates, supports, etc.
In order to meet these performance claims the following restrictions apply:
- Influent must be gravity fed to tank.
- Inlet oil/water mixture temperatures must be between 40°F to 150°F.
- Ambient air temperatures must be between 0°F to 140°F.
- Inlet oil specific gravity range between .68 and .95*.
- Water specific gravity must be equal to or greater than 1.0.
- The tank must be installed underground using Containment Solutions’ published installation instructions.
- The tank must be vented at all times.
- The separator must be cleaned out regularly in order to maintain the stated efficiency. Containment Solutions recommends cleaning yearly and inspection after a major event (i.e. large spill, etc.).
