Tri-Float Skimmers

The most efficient devices for skimming

Our Tri-Float Skimmers are designed as a simple, trouble-free solutions for removing free floating and mechanically dispersed tramp oils in larger skimming applications. The skimmers work in any application where skimming oil off of the top surface of a fluid is required. 

Our patented suction skimmer changes position when fluid levels in your tank, bath or pit rise and fall. You can also easily set the exact depth of skim you need and fine tune it to accommodate aggressive surface skimming or to get underneath a foam layer to remove the floating oil.

Simply connect the SmartSkim® Suction Skimmer to the suction side of a transfer pump and you’re skimming. This unit continuously removes the topmost oily layer. When this SmartSkim® skimmer is used in conjunction with our SmartSkim® Separator Systems, skimmed oil can be continuously separated and removed from your fluids using no consumables.
