Cart Mount – The Oil Skimmer Model 6V along with the 60” (1.52 m) Floor Frame are mounted onto a portable cart. The cart with lockable castors and handle can easily be rolled from one location to another within a facility. The cart is large enough to allow for a collection drum for the skimmed oil. Weights are added to the underside of the cart to counterbalance the Model 6V, which extends out over the skimming area.
This system can also be applied to applications where the continuing removal and re-installation of the unit is required.
Pallet Mount – The Model 6V along with the 60” (1.52m) Floor Frame are mounted onto a metal pallet. The system can easily be moved from one location to another or taken out of and put back into service with the use of a standard fork truck or pallet jack. It is used where the terrain which must be traversed is too rough for the use of the cart mount. For this system the pallet is weighted to allow the Model 6V to extend out over the skimming area. A heavier duty pallet mount is available where it is desirable to extend the skimmer out more than 12” from the edge of the skimming are. An example would be multiple ditches which require routine skimming.
Options – As with all mounting systems from Oil Skimmers Inc. these portable mounts can be modified or re-engineered to meet customers specifications or requirements. Units have been supplied with large pneumatic tires—made larger to hold accessory equipment such as decanters, pumps or collection tanks—designed to accept option methods of transit such as overhead cranes. Representatives are available throughout the country to assist with your applications. |
