This manual provides installation and operation instructions for the small diameter probe scavenger (PSCAV). The manual contains the following information: system description, system installation, system operation, system maintenance, system troubleshooting, system specifications, winch assembly and operation, replacement parts and accessories.
The Geotech 10438 Small Diameter Probe Scavenger (PSCAV) is an automatic pumping system designed to simultaneously recover water and hydrocarbons from wells. It utilizes a specially designed probe to differentiate between hydrocarbons and water, allowing for the retrieval of virtually 100% water-free oil. The system can be configured with a Water Table Depression Pump (WTDP) to create a cone of depression, drawing in hydrocarbons that contaminate surrounding groundwater, or for product-only applications.
