Skimmer Model MI-50

Oil Skimmer Model M1-50The Morris MI-50 heavy duty skimmer is a high capacity, high efficiency skimming system.  This device is suitable for the demanding offshore and commercial skimming environments.  Morris Skimmers installs the discharge pump on the skimmer head to "push" from the skimmer which allows the MI-50 to operate more efficiently and handles a wider range of oil viscosities than any other disc skimmer.
