Oil products adhere to the outer surface of the rotating drum or discs, which are constructed of PVC material, aluminum or steel. The discs rotate thanks to a hydraulic (or electric) motor.
The oil products are then mechanically removed using scrapers. From the oil sump, the collected contaminants are pumped out by a pump located on the shore or on the ship. The kit may include an arrow with barrage booms.
