                                          Working Principle

• The floats along with the intake move up and down on the top to match the varying liquid levels inside the tank.

• The height of the suction pipe which is beneath the floating level, can be adjusted to ensure it stays at the correct level, regardless of the fluctuations in liquid level. The product from the suction mouth is extracted down through the piping with swivel arrangement.

• While liquid level varies, the swivel arrangements rotate so that the pipes fold / bend like arms and maintain the floats and intake on top.

Floating suction tank works on the principle of buoyancy. On operation of the pump, the free-floating oil and oily water enter the funnel, pass through the articulated suction arm, and are discharged using a pump. A low-shear positive displacement pump is used to avoid emulsification.

Features & Benefits of FLOATING SUCTION ASSEMBLY (OIL SKIMMER)

• Self-Adjusting Design – Automatically adapts to changing water levels for efficient operation.

• Efficient Oil Removal – Designed to capture various types of oils, including light, medium, and heavy oils.

• Minimal Water Intake – Optimized to recover oil with very little water, improving separation efficiency.

• Durable & Corrosion-Resistant – Made from materials like stainless steel, aluminum, or HDPE for long-lasting performance.

• Easy Installation & Maintenance – Simple structure with fewer moving parts reduces wear and upkeep costs.

• Customizable Flow Rates – Can be designed for different oil recovery capacities.

• Compatible with Various Systems – Works with oil-water separators, vacuum trucks, and recovery tanks.
