1. The aqueous medium enters here.
   Special baffle plates ensure optimal flow patterns in the unit, promoting gravity separation and coalescing of finer oil dropletts.
2. All of the flow comes up here and flows into the special Suparator® construction.
   The flow carries the oil traces to the surface and into the Suparator® construction, where the oil is separated.
3. The actual separation of oil takes place here.
   This part is the special Suparator® construction where the oil is separated from the aqueous medium in three steps: collect -- concentrate -- separate.
4. Separated oil leaves the unit over the oil weir and through the outlet at the side.
   The oil is separated from the aqueous medium without any water. The oil leaves the unit through an outlet at the side.
5. This is the outlet for the aqueous medium.
   After separation of the oil, the aqueous medium leaves the unit trough the side wall.
