Oil and water are picked up from the surface of the tank by the pick-up drum by using surface tension, fed and deposited in the run-off trough by the doctor blade and empties in to the oil separating tube.2. Oil, because of its lighter specific gravity rises to the top of the separating tube, is drained off by gravity through the oil discharge port, which is higher than the normal so-lution level. Water and washing solution because of their heavier specific gravity drop below the oil level and return to the tank through the bottom opening of the separating tube for reuse.3. If the tank has a load immersion, or similar cycle, the amount of solution displaced by the immersed load must not be allowed to rise more than 2.5”(63.5 mm) above the normal liquid level. If the solution level rises more than 2.5” (63.5 mm) above the normal solution level, a 3/4” so-lenoid valve should be installed in the oil discharge line to prevent water from being discharged through oil dis-charge port during the immersion cycle.4. CAUTION: Since the oil discharge by the SKIMMO® (if installed according to instructions,) can contain up to 1% water, it is extremely important that any quench oil re-covered and intended for reuse be properly processed to remove all remaining water. Special precautions must be taken before any of the separated, recovered oil is reused in your plant because of the many possible contaminants which will not be separated by the SKIMMO®.OILDISCHARGEPORTOIL PICK-UPDRUMDOCTORBLADENORMALWATERLEVELCHAINDRIVEOIL RUN OFFTROUGHOILHEADOIL SEPARATINGTUBEOIL & WATEROILWATERSKIMMOTANKLEGEND1 Special voltages available at an additional charge 2 Phenolic doctor blade available upon requestSPECIFICATIONS MODEL 14BCONTAINMENT TANK SIZE14” W X 19” H X 10” D3/16” MILD STEELDRUM LENGTH 8”DRUM TYPE 304 STAINLESSMOTOR1/4 HP 2301-460 3 PH60 Hz TEFCDOCTOR BLADE TEFLON®2BUSHINGS TEFLON®UHMWUNIT WEIGHT 93 LBSPAINTMACHINE TOOL GRAY ENAMELAvailable Options• Unit available in 100% 304 or 316 stainless steel at an additional charge• Optional liquid level control available at an additional charge• Single phase 380 V and 575 V motors• Engineered systems available* These specifications are subject to change without noticeHow Skimmo® Operates??????? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ???Industrial Separation & Process SolutionsYour Local Sales Contact439 NEISlEr STrEETSHElBy, Nc 28152 USAOffIcE: 704-480-0014fAx: 704-482-9881E-mAIl: INfO@HUDSONIND.cOmW W W.HUDSONIND.cOmBulletin SK05-705 0M ©2005 Hudson Industries SKIMMO® is a trademark of Hudson Industries U.S. Pat.
