Product catalog summary
Overview: The Komara Star 20 is a robust aluminium skimmer designed for tough spill environments, requiring minimal maintenance. It is specifically engineered for the recovery of high viscosity oils, making it suitable for use in coastal areas, ports, waste oil pits, and inland waters.
Specifications: The skimmer has a capacity of 20m3 per hour and includes a demountable lobe pump, GP20-2 Diesel Hydraulic Powerpack, and a hose kit. The powerpack is available with an electric start and additional safety features such as a spark arrester and automatic overspeed shutdown. An optional water injection system is available for very high viscosity oil.
Design and Functionality: The skimmer's compact and rugged design facilitates easy oil flow towards the disc banks. The Star Disc design, developed by Vikoma, combines disc skimming with mechanical action to lift viscous oil over a weir into a sump. The toothed discs and wide capture width ensure efficient oil recovery with minimal free water content of less than 2%. The disc bank pivots to allow debris to pass through, preventing blockages.
Operational Features: The Komara Star 20 features a highly efficient onboard pump capable of handling heavy oils and running dry without damage. Its modular construction allows for easy transport over rough terrain, with the disc bank and lobe pump removable for separate use.
Product Benefits: Key benefits include efficient recovery of high viscosity oils, robust aluminium construction, and a demountable lobe pump. The skimmer is designed to handle debris effectively and maintain high performance in challenging environments.

Komara Star 20-2

The Star Disc design was developed by Vikoma to recover heavy viscous oils, it combines the prinicples of disc skimming with mechanical action to lift viscous oil over a weir and into a sump to be carried away by a powerful transfer pump. The unique action of the star disc creates a flow of oil towards the skimmer and can pick up the oil’s as a continous sheet. The serrated disc edges claw into thick oil and pull it into the skimmer. The oil is then drawn over a weir lip and into a sump. The Komara Star 20 can recover high viscosity oil at more than 20m3/hr. It is designed for use in coastal...
