Oil Skimmer (Belt & Disk)
Oil Skimmer (Belt Type)
Belt Type Oil skimmer In any coolant application scum is generated. If this is not removed it affects the coolant life. A belt skimmer is a very simple product to remove the floating oil. A belt skimmer is mounted on tank tops. The unit consists of two (2) pulleys. Care is taken that the bottom pulley is below fluid surface level. The top pulley is connected to a geared drive. An endless belt of polyurethane material rotates on the pulleys. Bottom pulley has a self-tensioning arrangement to compensate expansion of belt over time. Fluid flows slowly over the belt leaving the floating oil on the surface of the belt.
Oil Skimmer (DiskType)
A disc skimmer is very useful for small tanks with no level variations. Due to robust and simple design it is generally preferred for small individual tanks.
