Product catalog summary
Overview
The Friess Oil Skimmer Model W20 is designed to remove floating oils from emulsions, wash water, or wastewater, particularly in long, narrow tanks. It offers rapid return on investment by extending the service life of emulsions and degreasing baths.

Advantages
  • Low assembly effort with prefabricated systems available for various applications.
  • Compensates for level fluctuations in tanks.
  • Minimal maintenance due to robust design and durable materials.

Technical Data
  • Removal Capacity: 10 - 230 l/h
  • Minimum Tank Width: 500 mm
  • Maximum Installation Height Above Liquid: 600 mm
  • Voltage: 400 V
  • Drive Power: 0.09 kW
  • Dimensions: 400 x 390 x 375 mm
  • Operating Temperature: -20 °C to +95 °C

Options
  • Stepless electronic speed controller.
  • Separation tank for water removal from skimmed oil.

Construction Principle
The oil skimmer uses an endless, smooth oil collector tube that floats on the liquid surface. Oils, greases, and dirt adhere to the tube, which is then pulled through ceramic wipers to strip off the oil, directing it into a collection pan and then a tank.

Scope of Application and Special Features
The Model W20 is ideal for long, narrow tanks, creating a rotating motion to remove oil and grease from the entire liquid surface, including corners. It is designed for continuous operation in harsh industrial environments, made of stainless steel with ceramic components for durability.
