Application of an Oil Separator

The BELKI Oil Separator is applied for removal of tramp oil and other surface contaminants from process fluids, e.g. coolants and degreasers. The BELKI Oil Separator is utilised as a fixed installation or mounted on a trolley for maintenance of any number of tanks.

Operation of an Oil Separator

The surface is skimmed by a self-regulating suction unit called tilting skimmer. The slow revolving, electrically driven diaphragm pump is designed to keep the tramp oil from being mixed into the fluid, thereby ensuring an effective separation. The tramp oil flows to a collecting container and the cleaned fluid flows back to the machine tank.


Advantages of an Oil Separator

  • Self-regulating suction unit (tilting skimmer), only skimming the surface
  • The suction unit compensates for level variations in the tank
  • Gentle operation of the pump, ensuring effective oil separation
  • Easily adjustable so that only the oil is flowing to the oil container
  • The oil container has decantation function
  • Possibility for connection of several suction units (dependent on model type)
    211 H max 1 pcs. / 321 and 60 S max 2 pcs. / 200 LS max 4 pcs.
  • Module constructed; oil separator and pump can be mounted separately
    (for 60 S and 200 LS)
  • The models 211H and 321 can, like the 60S, be delivered in a mobile version that can easily be moved between several machines

BELKI Oil Separators, prices and costs

BELKI offers a wide range of stainless steel oil separators. The prices and costs of these oil separators depend strongly on the performance class of these devices as well as the required accessories.

The costs for a BELKI oil separator may be a little higher than those of other suppliers, but for us and the users of our technology, the high quality of the oil separators in terms of material and usability is important. BELKI oil separators are made of stainless steel with very smooth surfaces which offer little or no opportunities for microorganisms to attach to. After purchasing one of our oil separators you do not need any consumables, only wear parts such as the diaphragm set, which has to be replaced from time to time.

FAQ about Oil Separators

Oil separation

I want to buy an oil separator

BELKI offers a wide range of oil separators in many price categories. The cheapest models are oil skimmer / belt skimmer. These skimmers can remove oil from tanks with small surfaces and limited space. The more efficient oil separators are used for surfaces of liquids from 1 m² and are accordingly slightly more expensive. The BELKI oil skimmers and oil separators are all made of stainless steel, which guarantees a long life time of the separator. For concrete offers please please contact our team or use the contact form "Contact us".

How does an oil separator work?

A BELKI oil separator works by the principle of gravity. The fluid surface is sucked off by a self-adjusting suction unit, a so-called tilting skimmer. The fluid is conveyed into the oil separator by a slow-running, electric diaphragm pump. The pump conveys so gently that no oil droplets are fragmented in the pump chamber. In the oil separator the oil separates very quickly from the aqueous fluid. The oil runs into a collecting tank and the cleaned fluid runs back into the machine tank. In this way, tramp oils from process fluids such as cooling lubricants, degreasing baths and other fluids with tramp oil are effectively separated by the oil separator.

What are the costs of an oil separator?

BELKI offers a wide range of oil separators starting in the price range from 660 €. The cheapest models are oil skimmer / belt skimmer. These skimmers can remove oil from tanks with small surfaces and limited space. The more efficient oil separators are used for surfaces of liquids from 1 m² and are accordingly slightly more expensive.

What is an oil skimmer?

An oil skimmer is a cheaper and more compact alternative to an oil separator. The oil skimmer / belt skimmer is used for oil separation from tanks with very small surfaces and limited space. The oil is removed from the bath surface by slow running, high quality teflon belts. Depending on the type of oil skimmer, the oil is decanted either via an integrated 2.5 l collection tank or a stainless steel collection tray, which works like an oil separator. In this way, process fluid that is also discharged is returned to the tank; the oil remains in the collection tank.
