Rockford Sanitary Systems

With separation as its sole business, Rockford Sanitary Systems has supplied quality separation systems to the plumbing industry for over 35 years. More than 26 varieties in over 200 available sizes are engineered and custom-built in the USA for job-site specific applications and installed wherever separation systems are required. These include: industrial plants, office buildings, health centers, multi-unit apartments, restaurants, food-processing plants, laundromats, retail and service centers.

Rockford Separators are used in separating and retaining numerous wastes: grease, oil, fuel, fats, lint, hair, soap residue, food solids, chemicals, sediment, solid waste, sand, gravel, sludge, plaster, precious metals, glass chips and grindings, fibrous materials, metal chips, and waxes. In many cases, the product recovered by the separator more than pays for itself in salvage value.

Architects, engineers, building officials, health agencies, plumbing contractors, and other specifiers have come to rely on Rockford for the utmost in quality, precision engineering and quick turnaround time. The principle behind a Rockford Separator follows natures own law of gravity in separating lighter-than-water waste matter from heavier-than-water waste, retaining both in the separator. Clogged drain lines are virtually eliminated due to the unique, yet simple design incorporated into Rockford Separators: there is no straight in-and-out travel of waste water from the inlet to the outlet; instead, separator screens and a removable filter screen prevent grease, oil, and other wastes from entering the sewage system.

The family of Rockford Separators includes:

G Series designed to protect drainage systems from grease stoppages and costly maintenance of rodding waste lines. Variations include: the G-LO Series Low-Inlet Models (for use on fixtures with a low waste outlet), the G-C Series (designed to fit into the small spaces of complete kitchen units), and the G-FM Filter Medium (for separating small particles such as plaster, hair, etc.)
