Also similar to our Model 6V Brill™, the Model 5H waste oil recovery system removes oily waste using an oil collector tube. Oil adheres to the outside of the floating closed-loop tube and is drawn across the surface of the water and into the oil skimmer.

The collector tube snakes over and around floating debris, adjusting automatically to changing water levels. The tube is drawn up into the skimmer and through scrapers that remove the oil. Then the tube returns to the water surface to collect more oil, while the recovered oil flows to a collection container.
Why the Tube?
Brill tube type oil skimmers are designed to ensure consistent, even operation, regardless of the application.
Efficiently Removes Oil
Brill tube type oil skimmers efficiently remove all petroleum-based oil, fats, greases, and oily wastes, as well as animal and vegetable oils that float on the surface of water.
Oil Sticks to the Tube
Oil adheres to the outside of a closed looped tube, which is continuously driven across the surface of the water, then through a set of scrapers that remove the oil. The recovered oil drains into a collection tank.
Unaffected by Floating Debris
Floating debris may cause problems for other types of skimmers by creating a dam in front of the skimming device. The debris prevents the oil from reaching the skimmer. However, the free-floating tube on Brill™ oil skimmers doesn’t follow a fixed path and snakes over, under, and through debris to continuously pick up oil.
Adjusts to Fluctuating Water Levels
The collector tube is durable, versatile, and easy to install. The tube continues to recover oil, floating up or down when water levels in the tank or sump fluctuate.
“H” Stands for Horizontal
The Model 5H is designed for efficient oil removal in applications where the skimmer can be mounted within 3 feet of the water level. The “H” in 5H stands for “horizontal” to indicate that the tube operates horizontally. The 5H is used to remove oil from above-ground tanks, parts washers, and other applications where the skimmer can remain within 3 feet of the skimming area.
The Model 5H efficiently removes as much as 60 gallons of waste oil per hour.
