This manual provides an overview of the Geotech Gas Guzzler Product Recovery System, including its function, theory, installation, operation, and maintenance.
This manual provides step-by-step instructions for installing and operating the Geotech Gas Guzzler Product Recovery System. It covers system components, setup, maintenance, troubleshooting, and specifications. The system uses a pneumatic diaphragm pump, a skimmer with a float, air filter, regulator, and tank-level sensor to recover light hydrocarbons from wells. It requires a minimum air supply of 6 cfm at 45 psi. Optional heavy hydrocarbon or high-temperature skimmers are available for larger wells. The system automatically shuts off when the recovery tank reaches a preset level. This manual is written in Spanish.
| Air Supply Requirement | 6 cfm (.17 cmm) at 45 psi (3 bar) |
|---|---|
| Maximum Air Flow at Full Speed | 6 cfm (.17 cmm) |
| Float Sensor Activation Height | 11” (28 cm) |
| Maximum Skimmer Movement (Standard) | 24” (61 cm) |
| Maximum Skimmer Movement (Heavy Hydrocarbon) | 26” (66 cm) |
| Maximum Air Pressure for Deep Wells | Greater than 45 psi (3 bar) |

The system requires a minimum air supply of 6 cfm (.17 cmm) at 45 psi (3 bar).
The standard skimmer provides a movement range of up to 24” (61 cm).
The tank-level sensor activates when the product level rises approximately 11” (28 cm) above the sensor tube.
