The
Oil Skimmers Model 6V oil recovery system removes animal,
vegetable and petroleum-based oils, fats, greases, and oily
wastes that float on the surface of water.
The unit removes as much as 100 gallons of waste oil per hour
and decants it into a drum -- so efficiently that the recovered
waste oil is virtually water-free. The Oil Skimmers Model
6V system is the dependable, cost-effective and uncomplicated
solution for removing oily wastes from process and environmental
applications.

How The Model
6V Works
The
Oil Skimmers Model 6V oil recovery system removes waste oil by means
of a specially formulated collector tube.
Oil adheres to the outside of the closed-loop tube as it is slowly
drawn across the surface of the water and into the oil skimmer.
The tube snakes over and around floating debris,
adjusting automatically to changing water levels. The tube
is drawn up into the oil skimmer and through scrapers that remove
the oil. Then the tube returns to the water surface to collect more
oil. The recovered oil flows into a collection container. The Model
6V system removes as much as 100 gallons of waste oil per hour;
the recovered oil is virtually water-free.
The length
of the collector tube is customized to meet individual specifications.
Experienced representatives are available to survey customers' oil
removal needs. Engineered For Headache-Free Operation The external
parts of the Oil Skimmers Model 6V unit - the drive wheel, scrapers,
and pressure blocks -- are made of high abrasion-resistant ceramic.
Gearings are engineered to require minimal power and maintenance.
Its thoughtful design and durable construction ensure the Model 6V
system an operational life span of 25-30 years. Many units have been
in service for more than 25 years and are still going strong.
The
Oil Skimmers Model 6V oil recovery system has been designed to operate
continually and unattended as it removes animal, vegetable and petroleum-based
oils, fats and greases that float on the surface of water.

Mounting
Equipment Options Increase
Versatility, Plus Prefabricated mounting packages further
extend the Model 6V system's flexibility. These packages simplify
placement of the system on pits, sumps, ponds, and open or
closed tanks, thus eliminating costly operation.
The
Model 6V system also can be outfitted with insulation and
heating packages for cold weather operation.
