Victor Marine Ltd fulfill a significant order for a series of lightweight oily water separators for naval fast attack interceptor vessels.

These lighter units have now been added to Victor Marine’s full range of products. Due to the weight constraints applied to this project, Victor Marine faced the challenge of designing and building a lightweight version of their already very successful CS Series range of separators.

Tasked with producing a separator weighing no more than 215 Kgs (dry weight) Victor Marine have produced a fully functional aluminium separator weighing only 169 Kgs (dry weight) which is an incredible 30% reduction in the finished weight of a standard CS Series unit .

It should be noted that this reduction in weight also surpassed the customer’s original indicated requirement. Three of these lightweight units have already been ordered and supplied (see attached product image) and all involved in the project are delighted with the process and finished product.

Duncan Marshall, Sales & Marketing Manager at Victor Marine, comments:“Victor Marine are extremely delighted with the finished unit as we strive constantly to design and build high quality, reliable and cost-effective solutions to meet customer requirements.”
