General Description > The Abanaki Model 4 Oil Grabber is a depend- able and effective means of removing oil from water and water-based solutions. Often, skim- ming by itself will reduce oil to an acceptable level of water purity.Depending on the charac- teristics of the liquid, it is possible for the Model 4 alone to reduce oil content to less than five parts per million in water. The unit can be used as a pretreatment beforefiltra- tion, and in conjunction with coalescing systems.The Model 4 utilizes a continuous belt andwiper to remove up to 20 gallons of oil per hour from the fluid surface. The belt, operat- ing on a motor and pulley system, runs through contaminated liquid to pick up oil from the surface. After traveling over the head pulley, the belt passes through tandem wiper blades where oil is scraped off both sides of the belt and discharged. The tail pulley has flanges which allow it to roll freely on theinside of the belt without becoming dislodged.It requires no bearings and does not need to Go WithThe Pro! The Model 4 Advantages > A single unit elevates and separates oilՕLifts oil any distance without the need ofexpensive pumpsMaintains skimming efficiency withfluctuating fluid levelsՕCan be used in depths as shallow as one foot, or as deep as 100 feetRequires no tank modifications in mostapplicationsՕOperates in turbulent liquid using option-al tail pulley cage and tether assemblyEasy mounting and fast cleaning, withminimal maintenance Skimmerman ՙ size="-5">

If turbulent conditionsexist, the optional tether and cage assembly prevents the tail pulley from being dislodged.Oil skimming makes use of the differences inspecific gravity and surface tension between oil and water. These physical characteristics allow the belt to attract oil and other hydrocarbon liquids from the surface of the fluid. The Model 4 can be used in tanks with depths as shallow as one foot, or as deep as 100 feet. > Model 4 with flatmount in use The Model 4 is designed for those applications where other models provide excess capacity, or physically...
