Manufacturing and production techniques often require the use of oil and water. Often government regulations require that oil and debris are removed from water before reuse or return to the environment. For this, an oil skimmer is recommended to remove the oil from water.

With the Oil Skimmer 6-V, oil adheres to a specially formulated closed-loop tube that snakes over and around debris. Tube lifts oil out of the water; oil is removed as it is drawn through scrapers. The clean tube returns to the water's surface to gather more oil.

The 6-V removes up to 100 gallons of oil an hour and runs unattended 24 hours a day. Suitable at below freezing outdoors or in-plant, with a lifespan of more than 20 years, it is customized to specifications.
