The Oil Skimmers Model 6V waste oil recovery system removes animal, vegetable and petroleum-based oils, fats, greases, and oily wastes that float on the surface of water or other liquids. The unit removes as much as 100 gallons of waste oil per hour, and discharges it into a drum so efficiently that the recovered waste oil is virtually water-free. BENEFITSClosed-loop collector tube floats on water surface Collector tube performance is unaffected by any floating debrisTube easily floats up or down to adjust to changing water levelGyrating action of collector tube breaks up oil crusts Virtually maintenance-free operation Unique anti-clogging designCast metal housing and structural membersHigh performance, quiet-running motor Can operate unattended 247Up to 30-year operating life

The Eaton Model 50 Plug Type Duplex Strainer is a simple, economical and trouble-free design, time tested in applications around the world over many years. This type of strainer is actually a high-quality, pressure rated plug valve with integral straining baskets. Switching the flow from onebasket to the other is accomplished by moving the operating handle through a 90 degree arc. The design is such that it is impossible for this operation to stop the flow because of the unique port design in the diverter plug. The entire switching operation takes less than 30 seconds and no tools are needed. The plug is automatically positioned each time in exactly the fight spot by integral stops. Before operating the handle a manual, integral lifting jack, built into the strainer is used to lift the diverter plug off of its seat. After the switching operation the lifting jack is used to reseat the plug. The lifting jack is specially designed to lift and seat the plug easily, even under high pressures. A built in stop limits the distance the diverter plug can be raised. This minimizes the possibility of material by-pass while it is being rotated. It also prevents debris from building up under the plug and making it difficult to reseat

The Model 53BTX features a design that makes strainer basket servicing a no-hassle operation. No more "race against the clock" during basket servicing to get the job done before the basket chamber overflows with fluid. The Model 53BTX keeps the chamberFEATURESMODEL 53BTX STRAINER Message: * Enter your comment hereProduct: Email: * Company: Name: * SUBMIT REQUEST FOR QUOTE OR INFORMATION(515) 981-0234 (800) 677-9067 GENERAL STRAINER INFORMATIONStrainer CatalogStrainer Applicationsdry during service. This gives you time to clean or replace the strainer basket without ever having to worry about leakage and overflow. And.without overflow, there is no need to clean up after servicing the strainer basket. The Model 53BTX is simply a better way to work.

he Eaton Butterfly Valve Type Model 50 Duplex Basket Strainer is a special design with several important features and advantages for large size pipeline with high flow rates. Flow is switched from one basket chamber to the other by a pair of synchronized, high quality butterfly valves. This replaces the diverter plug used on smallersize strainers and gives a straight flow pattern with no sudden changes in flow direction. The result is a very low pressure loss. A 10" strainer of this type, for example, can handle a water flow rate of 2000 gpm with a pressure drop of only 2 psi. This is the strainer to choose when you have a high flow rate application and a low pressure loss is critical. Another important benefit of this design is a saving in overall size. It is more compact than other large size duplex strainers, which means less weight and a smaller profile. This can be very important when space requirements are tight. The design uses a unique strainer basket concept which results in a very large straining area. The basket is constructed by convoluting (pleating) the perforated sheet, thus increasing the available straining area while reducing the total basket size. The flow enters the basket from the side, not the top, resulting in a straight-through flow pattern. What all this means in service is a lower pressure drop and greater time between basket cleanings than would be possible with standard design baskets.saving time and lowering operating costs.
