Free floating skimmer for efficient oil pollution recovery

The Lamor Free Floating Skimmer LFF100 is fitted with two V-chain-pocket-brush type conveyors for efficient collection of all types of floating oils and emulsions. Each brush chain conveyor consists of four brush chains.
Recovered oil is offloaded by a high volume Positive Displacement Archimedes Screw type pump with capacity of 115 or 140m3/hr with more than 500000 cSt oil.
The skimmer is hydraulically operated and fitted with two thrusters to allow the operator to manoeuvrer the skimmer to where oil is most heavily concentrated.
A mechanical feeder skimmer lifts or drags the oil out of the water to a position above the water surface, and feeds or drops it into a collection tank and to the oil transfer pump. This results in increased performance with high viscosity oils, debris and ensures recovered material has a low water content.
