INTRODUCTION
The Singulair system is the finest equipment available
and utilizes the most up-to-date wastewater treatment
technology. It is a sound investment that protects you
and the environment. Please take the time to familiarize
yourself with the contents of this manual.
HOW THE SINGULAIR
Developed to serve homes and small businesses beyond
the reach of city sewers, the Singulair system employs the
extended aeration process. Similar to the treatment method
used by most municipal
wastewater treatment
facilities, this process
involves a natural,
biological breakdown
of the organic matter in
wastewater.
Wastewater enters the
pretreatment chamber
where anaerobic
bacterial action
com bi n es with the
effects of gravity to
precondition the waste
before it flows into the
aeration chamber. Once
in the aeration chamber,
aerobic bacteria utilize
the organic matter in
t h e w a s t e w a t e r t o
biologically convert the
w a s t e i n t o s t a b l e
substances. Following aeration, flow is transferred to the
clarification chamber where the effects of gravity settle out
biologically active material. The Bio-Static sludge return,
located in the clarification chamber, creates hydraulic
currents that gently transfer settled particles back to the
aeration chamber. As clarified liquids pass through
the Bio-Kinetic system, they are filtered, settled and
flow equalized. As a result, complete pretreatment,
aeration, clarification and final filtration are assured. The
Singulair system reliably protects you, your property and
the environment.

FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES
Singulair tanks are reinforced precast concrete, manufactured
by the licensed Norweco distributor. Internal walls and baffles
are cast-in-place to insure uniformity and maximum strength.
Risers and access covers are either heavy duty plastic or
concrete construction. All components within the system
that will contact the wastewater are constructed entirely of
molded plastic, stainless steel or rubber.
The Singulair aerator is powered by a 1725 RPM, 115 volt,
60 hertz, single-phase, fractional horsepower motor. It is
the only electrically powered component in the Singulair
All system controls and necessary owner information are
conveniently located at your fingertips.
Non-mechanical flow equalization and final filtration are
accomplished within the Singulair tank by the Bio-Kinetic
system. This revolutionary device is installed in the
clarification chamber and connected to the system outlet.
Optional chlorination and dechlorination may be included in
the Bio-Kinetic system if required. All Singulair components
work together to assure complete pretreatment, aeration,
clarification and final filtration.
system. The aerator
has been designed
specifically for use in the
Singulair system. It
costs less to operate
and consumes fewer
k i l o w a t t h o u r s o f
electricity than most
major appliances.
Singulair aerators are
supplied with a Service
Pro control center with
MCD technology. The
NEMA rated control
center contains a power
switch and time clock
that control aerator
operation. The local
distributor 's name,
address and telephone
number are displayed on
the control center cover.
