HELI-SEP® OILY WATER SEPARATOR
How Does it Work?
- Incoming bilge water is drawn through a high-density permanent matrix with a 1 Atmosphere vacuum. The matrix provides approximately 242,300 coalescing points with a surface area of 390 square meters per cubic meter of volume, to increase coalescing efficiency.
- Free oil droplets coalesce and rise to the top of the vessel for collection and discharge. Particulate impurities settle to the bottle of the vessel for removal.
- The oil discharge sensor initiates the automated first stage cleaning cycle, cleaning automatically during oil discharge. No chemicals, filters or media required.
