General configuration of skimmer
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.
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.
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 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.
Skimmer, power pack & hoses
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.

The power pack can be either electric or recoil

start.

The power pack comes with wheels for easy

movement.
