Wavecleaner VAC Surface Oil Spill System

How it works

Using Wavecleaner VAC is simple.

• Deploy the skimmer, attached to a 4m pipe, onto the water.
• The skimmer sucks the top film of water into the Wavecleaner VAC. A strainer mesh prevents debris being sucked into the unit.
• The polluted water passes through a 100 micron strainer, which removes larger particulates and protects the pump.
• It then passes through two Wavestream 2 filters, which remove the oil, fuel, microplastics and microfibres.
• The clean water is discharged back into the sea.

What it removes

• Diesel, petrol and light oils
• Microplastics and microfibres
• Larger particulates and floating debris

Where to use it

Wavecleaner VAC is designed for marinas, fuel jetties, inland waterways and ports, to deal with accidental spills on the water surface. The unit is mounted in a powder coated frame, so it is quick to deploy. It can be permanently or temporarily mounted to a marina trolley.

Power

No external power is needed. The unit has an integral rechargeable 12V DC power pack, which is charged from a 240V AC supply.

Legal discharge

Processed water is legally discharged back into the sea, and the unit complies with strict 5ppm oil in water requirements. There is no need for costly intervention or onshore disposal of contaminated water.

Supplied with

A 4m floating skimmer hose, a 3m extending skimmer pole and a 2m lay-flat outlet hose.

Replacement filters

Order WS-C2 (Wavestream System 2 cartridge) for the filters and WB006 for the pre-pump sediment strainer sleeve. The sleeve is washable.
