Electric Hydraulic Configurations
Skimmer with electric hydraulic power pack
The electric motor drives a hydraulic pump ( power pack ) which in turn provides hydraulic oil under pressure to drive the drums. The skimmed oil is drained from the back of the skimmer. The electric motor can be supplied with TEFC or Explosion Proof motor.
Electric hydraulic with submersible pump
Suction pumps have a limited suction lift, therefore in situations such as pits a submersible pump is coupled to the back of the skimmer that can pump the skimmed oil greater distances.
Pneumatic Configurations
Skimmer and Oiler Filter Kit
Compressed air is provided by the site. Oil collected by the drum is drained into a slotted pipe (API) or other.
Skimmer, Oiler Filter Kit and pump
For situations where it is not possible to drain the recovered oil, an air operated diaphragm pump is included in the setup. Compressed air is provided by the site.
Skimmer, Oiler Filter Kit and mounted pump
Suction pumps are only able to draw up to 29 ft vertically, therefore in situations such as pits the pump is mounted on the skimmer and can pump vertically a greater distance. Compressed air is provided by the site.
Skimmer and Oiler Filter Kit with vac truck
Compressed air is provided by the brakes from a vacuum truck. Oil collected by the drum sucked directly into the truck using its vacuum system.
