DISC SKIMMERS H (T) Disc Skimmer - 20 M3/hr (GSD20) 40 Disc Skimmer - 15 M3/hr (GSD15) DISC SKIMMER The GSD15 disc skimmer has 40 x 300mm polypropylene oil collection discs and the GSD20 has 16 x 300mm aluminium H discs. Both skimmers is made from marine grade aluminium. Oil pick-up occurs as the rotating discs pass through oil which adheres to them. The oil is scrapped off the discs with telfon scrappers. The oil runs down the oil trays, onto the apron and into a collection sump from where it is pumped away.
General configuration of skimmer
Pump Options: Onboard hydraulic driven submersible discharge pump is incorporated into the oil collection sump. No suction hose is required, only 3” lay flat discharge hose.
The discs are rotated by a hydraulic gear motor. The speed of the disc motor is controlled by the disc speed controller situated on the oil tank of the power pack. The hydraulic motor speed is variable from 0-100 rpm. The hydraulic motor that turns the discs, receives it’s power from a hydraulic power pack which is driven by a diesel engine.
The onboard pump model has 3 x hydraulic hoses of different sizes to connect the power pack to the skimmer and pump. The hoses cannot be mixed up and do not require marking. On land pump. Any 3” self priming suction pump can be used to suck oil away from the skimmer. The Spate 75C diaphragm suction pump is often used and incorporated into the power pack. Both pump models have separate controls for pump speed and disc speed. The disc speed can be increased or decreased independently of the pump speed.
