Megator Alpha Skimmers


Megator was the first to develop the floating weir-type skimmer and the first to develop a Stainless Steel skimmer. Megator Alpha Skimmers are designed to recover oil and effluent in calm or sheltered waters and are equally adaptable for use in sumps, interceptors, and settling ponds and tanks.

Three fixed stainless steel spun-wound floats sealed with a silver solder support a tubular frame. Mounted on the frame is the skimming weir (the diameter varies depending on skimmer size and your clean-up requirements). Optimum efficiency is determined with this simple stainless steel weir that can be adjusted to allow a complete flooded suction or skimming oil and effluents at various depths.

Using the appropriate weir setting, the Alpha Skimmer will deal equally well with thin surface layers of light oils or concentrations of heavy oils; making it an ideal component of the Megator System-3 (see below). Additionally, when our Alpha Skimmer is combined with the Sliding-Shoe Pump, the result is an Oil Recovery Unit that can handle your toughest contamination problems with ease.

Regardless of the application, Megator has or can design a skimmer to meet your specifications.

Oil Recovery Unit
Megator's Oil Recovery Unit is designed for applications that an oily water separator can't handle. Turn to the Oil Recovery Unit for pollution problems like:

Megator Recovery Systems are complete with base and belt guard; one Alpha Stainless Steel Skimmer with adjustable weir and 1 1/2" hose connection; 1 1/2" x 10 ft. Urethane spiral reinforced hose - non-floating to ensure proper floatation of skimmer; 1 1/2" x 30 ft. floating suction hose; three sets quick-connect couplings. Choice of drive: gasoline engine or TEFC electric motor. Pump: Megator Sliding Shoe with total heads to 100 ft. and suction lifts to 25 ft. at 45 psi.
