The Model 1H is the most compact Brill® tube skimmer and is specifically designed for installations where space is limited or where tanks have restricted access openings.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\nBrill® tube oil skimmers operate using a closed loop collector tube that moves continuously across the surface of the liquid. Oil naturally adheres to the tube surface and is transported into the skimmer housing where scraper blades remove the oil and direct it into a collection container.\n\nBecause the tube floats freely on the liquid surface, it automatically follows fluctuating liquid levels and can move around floating debris while continuing to collect oil.\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe Model 1H tube oil skimmer is designed for smaller tanks and coolant sumps and typically removes approximately \u003cstrong\u003e1–2 gallons of oil per hour\u003c\/strong\u003e depending on operating conditions, oil viscosity and oil layer thickness.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOil removal capacity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe oil removal capacity of a tube oil skimmer depends on several operating factors including oil viscosity, oil layer thickness, temperature and system configuration.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe \u003cstrong\u003eModel 1H Brill® tube oil skimmer\u003c\/strong\u003e is designed for compact installations and typically removes approximately:\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1–2 gallons of oil per hour\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eapproximately \u003cstrong\u003e4–8 litres per hour\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nActual oil recovery may vary depending on operating conditions, oil type and the size of the collector tube installed.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOperating principle\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nThe collector tube floats freely on the liquid surface and is slowly driven by the skimmer motor.\n\nOil adheres to the outside of the tube while water is largely rejected. As the tube enters the skimmer housing, stainless steel scraper blades remove the oil from the tube surface and direct it into the discharge outlet.\n\nThe cleaned tube then returns to the tank surface where the skimming cycle continues.\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterial options\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nTypical construction materials include:\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel frame and collection pan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel scraper blades\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel drive wheel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCeramic drive wheel fingers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCeramic pressure blocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCeramic tube guides\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\nThe collector tube is available in different materials depending on operating temperature.\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAvailable micron ratings\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nOil skimmers do not operate based on filtration micron ratings.\n\nInstead, separation occurs because oil adheres naturally to the surface of the collector tube while water is rejected. This allows selective removal of floating oils, fats and grease from the liquid surface.\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDesign and construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nTypical system characteristics include:\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree-floating collector tube design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact stainless steel skimmer housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContinuous oil removal operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable installation height\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSide or top mounting options\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow maintenance mechanical design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\nThe Model 1H is lightweight and compact, allowing installation in small tanks or restricted access areas.\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTypical applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nTube oil skimmers are commonly used in:\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachining coolant sumps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParts washers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndustrial wash tanks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetalworking fluid systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWastewater pretreatment systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFood processing wash systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\nContinuous oil removal helps extend the life of coolants and washing solutions while improving process cleanliness.\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact tube oil skimmer design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContinuous tramp oil removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks with fluctuating liquid levels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnaffected by floating debris\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinimal maintenance requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtends coolant and wash solution life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTypical oil removal capacity of 1–2 gallons per hour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eConfiguration and quotation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nCorrect tube skimmer selection depends on the installation conditions of the tank or sump.\n\nWhen requesting a quotation it is important to provide the following information:\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeight of the skimmer above the liquid surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth of the tank or basin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength of the tank or basin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating liquid temperature\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower supply voltage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\nThis information allows selection of the correct collector tube length and the correct tube material.\n\nHigher operating temperatures may require the use of a high-temperature collector tube.\n\n\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e\n{\n\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n\"@type\":\"FAQPage\",\n\"mainEntity\":[\n{\n\"@type\":\"Question\",\n\"name\":\"What is a tube oil skimmer?\",\n\"acceptedAnswer\":{\n\"@type\":\"Answer\",\n\"text\":\"A tube oil skimmer removes floating oil from liquids using a free-floating collector tube that attracts oil and transports it to a skimmer housing where it is removed.\"\n}\n},\n{\n\"@type\":\"Question\",\n\"name\":\"How does a tube oil skimmer work?\",\n\"acceptedAnswer\":{\n\"@type\":\"Answer\",\n\"text\":\"A collector tube floats on the liquid surface and moves continuously through the skimmer.
