How the ZVA Sidewinder Tube Oil Skimmer works

The Sidewinder™ Tramp Oil Skimmer uses a oleophilic (oil-attracting) tube to pick up oil from the sump. The metal O-ring attached to the tube is for stability as the tube cycles through the coolant. A small white o-ring removes the oil attached to the clear tube and discharges that into the discharge port. The Tube Skimmer is rated at 1 quart per hour. Equipped with a reliable continuous-duty motor, the skimmer can operate effortlessly throughout the day or for a few hours, ensuring the cleanliness of your sump tank. Moreover, the skimmer can be configured with an external timer, enabling automated skimming without manual intervention. The Sidewinder Tube Skimmers fits in your hand and can mount under a chip conveyor, or on the side of any tank with several available mounting accessories.
