Oil Skimmer

A device that collects and removes floating impurities - oil, wax, foam or debris - from the liquid surface in a tank or basin. Mounted on the floating roof or on a separate float, it guides the surface layer into a collection point from which it is pumped or drained away. It is normally designed together with the floating suction line to form one integrated draw-off system.

Advantage:
1. Removes contaminants from the surface so they do not reach the process or the product.
2. Keeps the working environment and downstream equipment clean and safe.
3. Simple, robust construction with no complex control; it operates automatically with the liquid level.
4. Available in steel, stainless steel and aluminium to suit the stored product.
5. Can be combined with the floating suction line for one integrated draw-off system.
6. Custom-designed to the tank or basin geometry.
