Elastec manufactures skimmers for industrial applications such as removing fats, oils and grease (FOG) from food processing factories and for recovering oils from steel mills, mines, power generation plants and other manufacturing facilities. Our industrial skimmers are purpose-built for continuous duty and can be customized for special environments.
A small selective floating drum oil skimmer driven by a 12V motor, the Elastec Mini Skimmer is ideal for marinas, ponds, streams and small industrial tanks for recovering light oils such as lube oil, hydraulic, diesel and sheens. It can be run from a low voltage power source, such as a car battery or plugged into a 110V / 220v outlet.
The Elastec MiniMax is a robust and reliable drum oil skimmer designed for industrial and food oil processing applications. The standard skimmer frame is manufactured in High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE), making it resistant to many chemicals found in lagoons, sumps, separators and oil pits. For food processing applications, the MiniMax can be manufactured with a stainless steel frame and drums for resistance to chemicals and high temperatures.
The Elastec TDS118 floating drum oil skimmer is available in pneumatic or hydraulic drive for oil spill response or industrial use. Due to its shallow draft and light weight, the TDS118 is ideal for cleanup in creeks, rivers and lakes. It is supplied with either an air or hydraulic motor. For hydraulically driven skimmers we can provide a diesel or electric driven power pack.
The TDS136 oil spill skimmer is capable of recovering both light and heavy oils with very low water content. It has the same shallow draft and lightweight design of the TDS118 and offers twice the verified nameplate capacity. The TDS136 can be operated with either an air or hydraulic motor. For hydraulically driven skimmers we can provide a diesel or electric driven power pack.
The Elastec Hermit Oil Skimmer is designed to access tanks through roof or side manway openings with a minimum diameter of 20 in / 50 cm. Driven by an explosion-proof* air motor, the lightweight skimmer can work unattended recovering a variety of oil types. Supplied with an optional air-operated diaphragm pump, it recovers the oil with little water content.
The SeaSkater is a self-adjusting weir oil skimmer, it represents a significant step forward in weir skimmer design. Conventional weir skimmers typically have the float frame under the skimmer, the unique SeaSkater has it above to reduce draft. The SeaSkater has large diameter floats to increase the water line beam, combined with lightweight design, results in a new generation of weir skimmers with unparalleled responsiveness to wave movements.
