SECTION 1
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing the TEXASS (Textile Advanced Sewage Solution) for your property.
The TEXASS is one of the finest trickling filtration packed bed reactor Wastewater Treatment
Systems available today.
Our System converts the sewage from your residence or business into a clear odourless liquid.
The high degree of treatment is accomplished at a remarkably low operating cost per month.
SECTION 2
HOW THE TEXASS
(TEXTILE ADVANCED SEWAGE SOLUTION) WORKS
Why this Technology is so effective
The system comprises a pre-treatment chamber feeding to a secondary treatment chamber.
Further biological and mechanical filtration occurs by the use of the revolutionary ZABEL
A300 high performance filter, prior to TEXASS textile filtration chamber. Oasis Clearwater has perfected the textile filtering system that efficiently cleans the effluent through recirculation. After passing through solids settling small particle filtering compartments the effluent is pumped and sprayed several times through the unique textile filter.
Each pass cleans the liquid further until it is at the appropriate quality for discharge through the irrigation system. The resulting irrigation water easily exceeds both the New Zealand and Australian stringent standards for the disposal of wastewater.
The system is controlled by a high quality PLC (programmable logic controller) with audio-visual alarm detection for system operation and malfunction.

SECTION 3
INTRODUCING PRODUCTS INTO THE SYSTEM
Introducing harmful products into the system may reduce the efficiency of the system or stop the treatment process by destroying the biomass. These products that reduce the efficiency or stop the treatment process can be grouped into two groups, prohibited substances and limiteduse substances. While the wastewater treatment system will process most waste produced by the average household, the following information will maximise the system’s efficiency and reduce the time period between primary chamber pump-outs.
NOTICE: Introducing harmful or damaging chemicals into your TEXASS System may void the Warranty.
A.
Prohibited Substances:
Prohibited substances are those substances which, when present in even small amounts will prevent the system from providing wastewater treatment. Substances that will not dissolve may clog and possibly damage the unit. DO NOT introduce the following prohibited substances into your TEXASS System:
Plastic or rubber products, petroleum products, such as motor oil, paint, paint thinner, petrol and solvents.
Non-biodegradable products, such as sanitary napkins, condoms and disposable napkins.
Toxic substances such as pesticides, strong disinfectants and strong caustic drain cleaners.
Large amounts of paper products, such as paper towels and synthetic fibre-reinforced products advertised as having “wet strength”.
Animal fats, such as bacon grease or lard (normal cleaning of pots and pans is acceptable).
Chemicals
The following chemicals are prohibited substances and should not be poured into the
Treatment System:
Herbicides
Pesticides
Paint Thinner
Motor Oil
Have you read the
“Essential Guidelines”?
(enclosed with your system information)
B. Limited-Use Substances:
Limited-Use substances in large concentration will reduce or stop the treatment process. The same substances in smaller concentrations will have no harmful effect on the treatment process. You may use the following substances without harming your TEXASS Treatment
System if you use the substance according to the manufacturer’s directions. Use the substances SPARINGLY, and do not introduce concentrated doses into the system.
Bio-degradable laundry powders
Laundry Bleach
Detergents with Bleach
Household cleaners containing sodium bactericides such as:
- Pine oil (disinfectant used in general purpose liquid cleaners)

- Sodium hydroxide (lye-chemical used in drain openers and cleaners)
- Sodium dichlor-s-triazinetrione (powdered bleach used in scouring powders and automatic dishwasher detergents)
- Ortho-phenylphenol (bactericide used in tub and toilet bowl cleaners)
Waste Food
Some food waste, whether or not it is run through a waste grinder will not be treated by the system, but will remain in solid form and fall to the bottom of the septic tank. Therefore, you should consider not using a waste grinder system, or disposing of these food items through the
TEXASS Wastewater Treatment System:
Animal Bones
Melon Rinds
Corn Cobs
Pips and Seeds
Eggshells
Any other non-edible food waste
C. Acceptable Substances:
Substances that are considered to be typical domestic wastewater are human waste, bath and dish water and edible food waste.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE AND MONITORING
The TEXASS (Textile Advanced Sewage Solution) operates automatically and intermittently.
The maintenance procedures for the user of the system include keeping the vents and the housing clear of debris. The homeowner should monitor the status of the system, substances introduced into the system, and the frequency of required pump-out as determined by the service provider.
If the instructions in this manual are carefully followed, the TEXASS (Textile Advanced Sewage
Solution) will provide years of service.
For the homeowner, operational procedures for the TEXASS (Textile Advanced Sewage
Solution) are minimal. Normal operation of the unit requires intermittent operation and regular discharge of wastewater from the unit. Rubbish must not be allowed to enter the system. All alarm signals are programmed into the PLC.
Your TEXASS (Textile Advanced Sewage Solution) can be furnished with a service policy, which includes 2-3 inspection/service calls per annum to ensure proper operation of the system.
During these service calls, the authorised service person will check for proper operation and perform preventative maintenance including lubrication, cleaning, and inspection of the control
PLC. The service provider will also measure the solids level in the septic tank and recommend pump-out when necessary.
PRIMARY CHAMBER
Periodically, waste will need to be removed from the primary chamber using normal pump-out procedures. Only persons experienced in wastewater treatment or service are authorised to remove the chamber cover.
ALARM WARNING
The System is equipped with a red system status light on the control panel and an audio alarm.
Should the red light flash and the alarm activate, check the breaker to ensure it has not tripped.
If the breaker has tripped, attempt to reset it. If the breaker fails to remain reset, call your
Service Technician. The alarm may be shut off by pushing the OFF button. Pushing the OFF button will not reactivate the unit. It will only silence the alarm.
If your house is without electricity, call the electric company. If the electricity is off more than 48 hours, call your Service Technician as well, for treatment system advice.
If your house has electricity, but the blower is not operating, follow the procedures given under
ALARM WIRING.
FLOODING
Flood water may cover the septic unit, the blower housing, or both, if the System is installed in a low-lying area.
DANGER: Electrical equipment located in flooded areas presents an electrical hazard.
Should the unit become flooded, call your Service Technician. Stay out of the flooded area.
EVALUATION OF SYSTEM PERFORMANCE
The TEXASS (Textile Advanced Sewage Solution) operates automatically and intermittently.
There are no operating procedures for the user of the System to perform. However, as with any home appliance or equipment, simple periodic checks should, and can be made to aid in the prevention of costly repair problems which can lead to costly repairs. Generally, the wastewater treatment system unit can be checked by sight and smell.
010312

Oasis TEXASS 2000-3000 Owners Manual
© Copyright Oasis Clearwater Environmental Systems
The TEXASS (Textile Advanced Sewage Solution) is an odour-free system. Therefore, there should be no “septic” smell associated with the system. If such smell is noticed contact your
Service Technician.
VISUAL EVALUATION
Wastewater backup is characterised by wastewater flowing back into the house or slow movement of wastewater in the drains. This may indicate a problem with your wastewater treatment system unit. Identify where the backup is occurring within your home’s plumbing system. If no material is blocking the drain, contact your Service Technician.
IF SYSTEM NOT USED FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD
The TEXASS Wastewater Treatment System will function normally even if wastewater does not enter the system for 5 days. The power to the system should be left on during short periods when there is no wastewater flow to the system. If the system will not be used for several months or longer, you should contact your Service Technician so the system can be checked for proper operation and serviced if necessary. A slight odour may be detected for a couple of days while the system returns to normal operation.

This plant is constructed in two configurations one multi-chambered concrete tank or two multichambered plastic tanks and has a nominal holding capacity of 10,500 litres. The tank contains the following chambers:
FIRST PRIMARY CHAMBER (anaerobic and septic)
This chamber has a capacity of 2,200 litres. All domestic wastewater from the dwelling is piped to this chamber. Here, anaerobic and other oxidising bacteria break down suspended solid material.
The anaerobic digestion achieves a reduction in biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) in this chamber by up to 40%. This chamber also receives activated aerated sludge from the recirculation chamber that stimulates the bacteria and enhances the level of solids digested. It also aids de-nitrification.
SECONDARY PRIMARY CHAMBER (anaerobic and septic)
This chamber has a capacity of 1,100 litres. The domestic wastewater is able to flow freely from the first primary chamber into this chamber. This allows for mixing of the partially treated wastewater and prepares it for the processes that follow. This wastewater passes through a proprietary Zabel A100 filter before entering the recirculation chamber.

RECIRCULATION CHAMBER
This chamber has a capacity of 2200 litres it contains the recirculation pump and head works, the treated water from the PBR and aeration chamber is split to allow further passes across the PBR with a proportion split to the irrigation chamber all controlled by PLC.
Most of the remaining particles of suspended solids settle to the bottom of the chamber allowing largely clean odourless wastewater to pass to the pumping chamber.
The suspended solids that sink to the bottom of the chamber are drawn back to the first primary chamber for further processing.
AEROBIC CHAMBER (aeration and oxygenation)
This chamber has a capacity of 2,500 litres. The semi-treated wastewater is pumped from the recirculation chamber to the PBR chamber through a spray nozzle. The oxygen for this chamber is supplied via the nozzle and the trickling filtration process.
The PBR chamber contains close cell foam-block media. The media block is a porous mesh in square block form; packed together to produce a large surface area. These blocks attract and enhance the bacteria, nitrobacteria and nitrosamines that replenish free oxygen.
In addition to the ammonium contained in many wastewaters, the foam-block media concentrates other compounds and metals contained in the wastewater during the ion exchange processes.
The enhanced aerobic bacterial action results in a high level of aerobic treatment and a reduction in the accumulation of biological sludge.
PUMPING CHAMBER
This chamber has a capacity of 1000 litres. The fully treated wastewater flows into the pumping chamber where it is pumped out at pre-set rates for dose loading onto irrigated gardens, landscaped, or other suitable areas. The pumping chamber of the plant will be set up to dose load the subterranean land disposal area upon the accumulation of 200 to 400 litres between each dose loading or once daily which ever is the greater frequency.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
PROCESS FAILURE
Process failure from oxygen starvation of the biomass and trickling filtration process:
If the biomass is starved of oxygen, the typical odours associated with anaerobic bacterial treatment will be noticed. This is caused by insufficient air flow into the biological zone. A blockage or pump failure is the most probable cause. a) The pumps are equipped with an inlet screen. If this screen becomes blocked with debris, it could cause oxygen starvation of the biomass. The pump inlet screen should be checked every 6 months and replaced as needed.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS AND WIRING DIAGRAM
Electrical Specifications
The electrical equipment within the TEXASS Unit consists of one 600 watt discharge pump, a
400 watt recirculation pump and an electrical distribution PLC (programmable logic controller), all installed on the TEXASS Unit.
Electrical Requirements
to be provided by Owner’s Electrician:
A 230Volt AC 2.5mm TPS dedicated supply must be provided from the mains-board supply to the Oasis TEXASS Unit.
Also a two core 1.5mm TPS cable is to be connected between the terminals in the PLC and the alarm unit ( as supplied). Alarm unit should be mounted in a convenient inside location eg: garage or shed.
All alarm fault messages will appear on the PLC screen. The alarm unit operates on 24V DC.
Power supply and cable should be sized to avoid any voltage drop. A higher than normal liquid level will sound the alarm, and activate the red lamp. This can be muted until normal operation is restored, by placing the alarm in the mute position.
Two high level alarms are programmed in to the PLC; a malfunction of either the MBR or the irrigation pump will trigger an alarm. A malfunction in any circuit breakers should not be reset until the reason for the trip out is established and any malfunction is rectified.
All alarms and motor connections are hard wired into the PLC. The only wiring required is the supply cable, clearly labelled in the PLC. NO RCD unit is required.
The 3 pin socket in the PLC box is 230V AC and is for servicing or to run a UV sterilization unit.
All sequential timing and pump run times are pre programmed into the PLC and are code locked to avoid tampering. Any programme changes should only be done in conjunction with Oasis
Clearwater Environmental Systems.
