Belt Type Oil Skimmer
ABOUT US
Belt Type Oil Skimmer
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.
The belt scrapes through a pair of nylon scarpers near the top pulley. The scraped fluid is collected a tank. The separator tank is specially design with adjustable baffles. This separates the additional water content and diverts it back to the main tank.

- Oil Attraction by Belt: A continuous loop belt (made of oil-attracting, water-repellent material such as stainless steel or polymer) is partially submerged in the liquid surface where oil is present.
- Oil Pickup: As the belt moves through the contaminated water, it attracts and picks up floating oil, grease, or other hydrocarbons while leaving most of the water behind.
- Belt Movement: The belt is driven by a motorized pulley system that ensures continuous rotation and contact with the oil-laden surface.
- Oil Removal: The belt passes through wiper blades (scrapers) at the top of its travel path. These scrapers remove the oil from both sides of the belt.
- Oil Collection: The separated oil is directed into a collection tray or tank for storage, recycling, or disposal.
- Clean Belt Re-entry: The cleaned belt re-enters the fluid, repeating the process continuously.
