In many industrial settings, oil and water meet and flow together. Before re-using, treating, or discharging the water, the oil should be separated and removed. When oily wastewater, process water, wash water, or rain run-off water does not have sufficient time or space for the oil and water to separate naturally, a SAS® Tank can answer the challenge.
The SAS® (Separate And Skim) Tank from Oil Skimmers Inc. is a complete oil separation and removal solution for industrial process water and wastewater applications. The SAS® Tank provides the opportunity (space and time) to efficiently separate and remove the oil. The oil-free water continues on its journey to be treated, reused or discharged.
The SAS®
Tank is equipped with a Brill® tube type oil skimmer for Active Oil Removal™ that continuously removes the separated oil. A decanter returns any water or coolant collected by the skimmer back to the application. The decanting process ensures the least possible percentage of water in the recovered oil.
The SAS® Tank accepts a continual flow of liquid which enters the separator and is directed into the separation chamber, where the oil and water form two distinct layers. The coalescing media pack in the SAS® Tank facilitates and expedites separation.
Unlike other oil water separators, the SAS® Tank is supplied with a continuous, "active" method of oil removal; a Brill® tube-type oil skimmer. The skimmer eliminates the build-up of oil in the separation chamber, which is the primary cause of inefficiencies and maintenance in other oil water separators.

The SAS® Tank features a Brill® tube-type
oil skimmer. The integrated oil skimmer continuously removes oil, eliminating build-up of oil in the separation chamber, which is the primary cause of inefficiencies in other types of oil water separators.
The floating tube attracts oil from the surface of the liquid and is drawn into the skimmer where it passes through a series of scrapers. As the scrapers remove the oil, it drains into the SAS® Tank’s decanter. The clean tube returns to the tank to pick up more oil.
Oil Skimmers, Inc. tube-type skimmers need no regular maintenance and they have been operating in the harshest industrial environments for decades. Whether the tank solution pH is very high or low, this unit will last.
