Grease Grabber™ Grease Removal Systems  -1

The system is available in 3 basic configurations*: > The heart of the system features a patented design grease skimmer. Unlike oil skimmers this system was designed and developed specifically to pick up heavy grease and oil. The Grease Grabber > ή makes use of the differences in specific gravity and surface tension between grease and water. These physical characteristics allow the belt to attract grease, oil, and other hydrocarbon liquids as the belt passes through the surface of the water. The construction of the Grease Grabber has a rugged simplicity that is designed to last 20 years or longer. It can handle liquids between 32F and 212аF, with pH between 1 and 13. The motor, reducer, and powder coated finish give the unit exceptionally long life. Belt tension is maintained by the weight of a free riding tail pulley. The tail pulley is tethered to the underside of the Grease Grabber to prevent accidental loss. System A: Basic Grease Grabber System; features the Grease Grabber and Mat Buster Օ System B: Enhanced Discharge System; features Screw Feed Discharge System C: Transfer System; features Transfer Package *All systems can be adapted to your application. >

No other system is designed for extremely demanding applications, such as scale pits, where heavy loads of grease and oil accumulate. To handle this kind of load, the Grease Grabber uses an oil-filled gear reducer having bronze gears and ball bearings to drive pressure rolls with tractor treads that rotate the belt. This heavy-duty drive train will elevate skimmed grease over 100 feet for easy discharge into tramp waste containers. > Ε Circulating water systems in steel mills Truck, locomotive and other mobile equipment washing facilities Օ Wastewater sumps or tanks Food processing facilities...
