Camara de aire, 2500 galones marca Canflex (4)

 

Product Use

Temporary floating storage for recovered oil in support of on-water skimming operations. Can also be used for storage of recovered oil on land when placed in a shallow pit for support.

 

Operational Considerations

Vessel operators need to exercise care in towing bladders by being aware of the draft and in maneuvering alongside piers. Filling and discharging is accomplished through use of ball valve at end of hose which is suspended by a floating buoy. Air inflatable chamber in nose for buoyancy. Each unit, along with its fittings, is individually packaged in a heavy  bag for easy handling.
