Spill Buddy Pro

The Spill Buddy systems are a compact, manual, free product skimming system, designed to operate on site to skim quantities of product (LNAPL or DNAPL). The Spill Buddy's operation is based on the state-of-the-art ALPHA-ARRAY™ sensors in the probe that detect the interface between the product and the water. An audible feedback signals the user to keep the pump positioned in the product layer, and allows product skimming with virtually no water pumped (dependent on operator's reaction time in turning off the pump after hearing the audible signal for water).

The Spill Buddy Pro combines an interface meter with the Spill Buddy's free product skimming capability. The integrated measuring tape and audible feedback allow the user to determine the distance to the product surface, the depth of the product, and then to pump the accumulated product. It averages about 0.5 gallons of product per minute (approximately 35 gallons in an hour of continuous pumping).

Features and Benefits -
• Compact and lightweight - won't weigh you down.
• Self-contained battery operation, with convenient option to re-charge in vehicle between sites.
• Keeps pumping water to a bare minimum (unless desired!).
• Guides operator to interface with audible signals- eliminates guesswork.
• Spill Buddy Pro can take your interface readings and then pump available product, all in one step!

The Spill Buddy Pro's interface tape is marked in tenths and hundredths of feet; metric tapes are also available. The standard English unit includes a 50 foot down-well probe; the standard metric unit has a 15 meter probe. A 75 foot (23 meters) probe is also an option.
