Auto Oil Separator Specification Example for Municipal Fleets: Waterproof Version
Auto Oil Separator Specification Example for Municipal Fleets: Waterproof Version
This is a worked specification for auto oil separator in a waterproof version programme. It is the document we would send a buyer who asks what exactly they are getting: the material, the dimensions that are actually controlled, the finish, and the checks that happen before anything is packed.
The waterproof version version exists because the duty cycle on municipal fleets is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually lead time that slipped twice before bulk started.

How the example is built up
- Start from the duty cycle, not from the catalogue photograph.
- Fix the base material in writing — Ceramic Composite, in this example.
- List the dimensions that are actually controlled and the tolerance on each.
- Name the finish and what it has to survive.
- State the inspection level and who pays when a lot fails.

Processes involved
- shot blasting
- ultrasonic cleaning
- CNC machining
- gravity casting
- sintering
- injection moulding
Where this example applies
Programmes that run waterproof version most often specify this build for municipal fleets. Related applications include agricultural trailers, utility trailers, workshop replacements, three-wheelers, boat trailers.
Checks before packing
- Dimensional report against the approved drawing.
- AQL 1.5 sampling on the finished lot.
- Finish inspection under agreed lighting.
- Carton drop test on the first lot of a new packing specification.
Questions buyers ask
How is packing specified?
Individual packing, inner box quantity and carton marking are confirmed at quotation stage so the cartons arrive ready for your warehouse.
How long does sampling take?
Samples leave the factory in 14 working days, and each revision round adds about 5 days once you have seen the first piece.
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 3000 pieces per line.
Can the specification be held on file?
Yes. Once approved, the specification is recorded against your part number so a reorder reproduces the E-mark-compliant build instead of a fresh interpretation.
Send the specification you are working to and we will confirm what we can match, what we would change and why.
