Arctic Foxtail
The Arctic FoxTail is a new winterized version of the standard FoxTail VAB (Vertical Adhesion Band) skimmer. It has all the old qualities, and the additional integrated transfer pump, insulated cover and a hydraulic heating system, that heats both the hopper and the air circulating in the skimmer.
Product Description
Where a standard FoxTail can run in min. -6°C, the Arctic FoxTail can run in min -21°C under the same sea temperature and wind conditions.
The standard configuration is 200 lpm and 200 barwith LS and Closed Center, but other configurations are available.
Arctic FoxTail was developed through NOFO and the NCA’ “Oil Spill Response 2015” (Program for Developing New Oil Spill Technologies).
