Treating wastewater with oil contamination is necessary for compliance and stewardship purposes across many Australian sectors. Allpumps and Water specialize in providing oily water separator systems specifically designed for Australian conditions. We help vehicle wash bays, marine workshops, and even large scale industries clean their water discharge without facing any environmental or regulatory challenges.
Oily water separators effectively remove water, grease, hydrocarbons, and even suspended solids from water to prevent contamination before discharging it into the sewer systems or into the environment. Without an appropriate separator, you could face serious fines for non-compliance with EPA and local council regulations. Our separators ensure that your operations will run trouble-free and without costly penalties, making us the right choice for your compliance needs.
We recognize that no two jobs or applications are identical. For this reason, Allpumps and Water offers systems tailored to compact units for small workshops, as well as robust, high-capacity systems for use in mines, depots, fuel stations, and marine yards. Our team has extensive design and service experience with oily water separation systems that work under pressure. Whether it’s a single bay setup in metro Perth or expansive rural installations across WA and beyond, we have the tools and expertise to get the job done.
What differentiates us is our integrated approach. We don’t simply sell the separator we make sure the entire system, comprising pumps, motors, and filtration, is compatible and will operate smoothly as a cohesive unit. Separators can be custom-fit with submersible pumps, pressure boosting equipment, and high-performance filters for more reliable and effortless wastewater treatment. This is the difference offered by Allpumps and Water.
In addition to offering top-shelf products, we provide comprehensive installation support, as well as preventative and corrective maintenance to keep the systems running seamlessly. Our local technicians are trained, ticketed, responsive, and available to assist with maintenance, inspections, and system upgrades. This commitment supports our mission of providing comprehensive water management solutions for all clients, large or small.
We carry units from certified suppliers that meet the Australian Standards and offer long-lasting performance. Each unit is designed to endure high flow rates, harsh site conditions, and fluctuating oil loads. From emulsified oils to free-floating hydrocarbon waste, we provide reliable and efficient separation units tailored to your needs.
Selecting an oily water separator goes beyond compliance; it involves safeguarding your site and equipment while minimizing environmental impact. With Allpumps and Water, you can fulfill your obligations with clean and efficient operations. Based in WA, we deliver solutions that work wherever you are in Australia.

All around Australia, oil water separators are essential for operations across industries such as automotive, agriculture, transport and even mining. These systems help comply with environmental regulations since they assist in decontaminating water by removing hydrocarbons and other harmful substances preemptively. However, just like any other industrial system, oil water separators encounter problems that hinder performance which consequently results in costly downtimes.
1. Oil Carryover in Discharge Water
The Issue:
Oil present in the outlet stream is one of the most frequent signs of a separator malfunction. This usually indicates that the system is not separating oil effectively, which can result in environmental non-compliance and fines.
Possible Causes:
Damaged or saturated coalescing media
Overflow due to high inflow rate
Emulsified oils bypassing separation
Incorrect skimmer or flow settings
Our Solution:
At Allpumps and Water, we perform a thorough inspection of the filters or coalescing plates and replace them if they are worn or clogged. We evaluate flow rates and calibrate the system’s inlet conditions to avoid system overload as well. Should emulsified oil be an issue, we can suggest separation-enhancing pre-treatment or chemical options.
2. Pump Failures or Low Suction Pressure
The Issue:
When pumps within the system start to fail or exhibit low suction, the entire oil water separator performance can suffer. This leads to inconsistent operation and underperformance in treatment capacity.
Possible Causes:
Blockages in suction lines
Worn impellers or seals
Electrical faults in motors
Incorrect pump sizing or cavitation
Our Solution:
We examine problems with a pump using pressure tests, electrical checks, and visual inspections. In cases where repair is not possible, we offer replacement with energy-efficient models that match system demand, sized properly for seamless integration. Here at Perth, Allpumps and Water stocks a wide array of ready-for-fast-installation high-quality pumps.
3. Odours or Sludge Build-Up
The Issue:
Unpleasant smells or heavy sludge accumulation around or inside the separator are signs of poor maintenance or biological activity. This can also indicate a failure to remove heavier contaminants from the system.
Possible Causes:
Poor maintenance schedule
Excess solids in inflow
Inadequate sludge removal systems
Biofilm growth in separator compartments
Our Solution:
We provide comprehensive cleaning and desludging services to restore your oil water separator to operational standards. We will assess inflow solids content and may suggest pre-filtration if necessary. Routine maintenance plans provided by Allpumps and Water ensure that sludge does not impair your system again.
4. Emulsified Oil Not Separating Properly
The Issue:
Emulsified oil can be one of the hardest contaminants to remove. Unlike free-floating oil, emulsified oils are chemically bonded with water, making them more difficult to separate through standard coalescing media.
Possible Causes:
Use of detergents or cleaning agents in wash bays
High turbulence in the inlet stream
Poor system design or lack of pre-treatment
Our Solution:
Our technicians from Perth will evaluate your site processes and trace the origin of emulsifiers. We commonly suggest some form of physical or chemical pre-treatment such as flocculation, pH modification, or using settling tanks. In addition, we provide upgrades to handle more difficult contaminants better.
5. High Maintenance Costs or Frequent Downtime
The Issue:
If your oil water separator constantly requires attention, breaks down frequently, or incurs high running costs, it’s likely due to aging components or an inefficient system setup.
Possible Causes:
Outdated equipment
Lack of scheduled servicing
Improper installation or system design
Unsuitable components for application
Our Solution:
Allpumps and Water are able to carry out a complete system audit as well as a full performance review. We offer customised upgrade options which include new motors, pumps with better energy efficiency, and filtration systems that are more dependable. Through repairs and preventative maintenance, we help systems extend their lifespan while reducing operational costs over time.
