The Model 7V is engineered for demanding industrial environments where high oil recovery capacity and rugged construction are required.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\nBrill® tube oil skimmers operate using a continuous loop collector tube that floats freely across the liquid surface. Oil naturally adheres to the outside of the tube 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 surface, the skimmer automatically follows fluctuating liquid levels and can move around floating debris while continuing to collect oil.\n\nThe Model 7V includes a larger 1-inch collector tube and adjustable speed control, allowing the skimmer to be optimized for different oil types, oil thickness and operating conditions. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}\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 7V Brill® tube oil skimmer\u003c\/strong\u003e is designed for large tanks and heavy-duty applications and can remove:\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eup to 200 gallons of oil per hour\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eapproximately \u003cstrong\u003eup to 757 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 collector tube length.\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, 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\u003eHeavy-duty cast housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEpoxy coated surfaces for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCeramic wear components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCeramic drive wheel fingers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCeramic pressure blocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndustrial gear motor drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollector tube available in standard or high temperature material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\nThe epoxy coating provides additional protection against chemical exposure, abrasion and harsh operating conditions. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}\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.
