Description
Tube oil skimmers feature a floating plastic tube that attracts oil and other hydrophobic liquids. The tube rotates on the surface of the water, and as the oil adheres to it, the tube passes through a scraper mechanism that removes the oil.
Working principle
The tube oil skimmer operates by rotating a continuous loop of tubing that skims the water's surface. Oil sticks to the outside of the tube and is then wiped off by fixed scrapers as the tube passes through the skimmer unit.
Applications
- Used in small to medium-sized tanks and coolant systems.
- Ideal for spaces where access is limited due to its compact size and flexible tube that can snake around obstacles.
Technical Specifications:
- Removal Capacity: Up to 20 liters per hour.
- Tube Length: Customizable based on application needs.
