Skimmers by Durham Geo-Enterprises, Inc.
The Passive Skimmer utilizes the F.A.P. Plus™ skimmer to provide a 36 in floating intake for the
recovery of free phase products such as gasoline, diesel and jet fuel. It is used when minimal
product is present or slow recovery rates are expected. For passive recovery of products with
higher than 80 SSU, the 4 in high viscosity skimmer (TR-25410) is used. This system provides a
floating intake of 30 inches.
The clear PVC collection canister uses a quick connect fitting to attach it to the skimmer and pro-
vides venting through the skimmer support hollow rod. The bottom of the canister incorporates a
petcock for easy draining. The petcock assembly can be removed allowing an extension canister
to be threaded into the existing canister to increase the volume of free product that can be recov-
ered. Additional weights are included with each canister and must be used for proper installation.

SoakEase™ is a product-selective absorbent sock housed inside a stainless steel canister. It is
used as a passive collection system for free phase product such as jet fuel, gasoline or diesel fuel
from 1.25 in and larger recovery wells, monitoring wells and recovery trenches. The SoakEase™
can be used as a bailer for periodic product removal or as a dedicated system for a more con-
tinuous method of recovery. Prior to dedicating the SoakEase™, it is recommended that excess
free product be removed by bailing with the SoakEase™.
To use SoakEase™ as a bailer, an absorbent sock is placed in the stainless steel canister; a
cord is attached to the support loop and then lowered through the product layer. The full length
of the sock should come into contact with the product for greater recovery. Immediately, the
SoakEase™ will begin absorbing product at a rate of approximately 0.1 gallon per second,
depending on the product viscosity. After some time, the SoakEase™ should be raised from the
well; the sock removed from the canister and disposed of in accordance with regulations.
