Product Overview

The Pro Wringer is a heavy-duty hand wringer designed to squeeze used absorbent pads and rolls -- extracting absorbed oil, coolant, and other liquids so the absorbents can be reused multiple times. This dramatically reduces absorbent waste costs and extends the useful life of every pad and roll. The 19 in. wide rollers accommodate full-width absorbent pads and rolls.

Dimensions: 24 in. L x 24 in. W x 26 in. H. Collection sink: 24 in. x 24 in. x 8 in. Weight: 108 lbs. An optional Motor Drive Kit is available to convert to electric operation.

Expert Insights

With 40+ years of industrial supply experience, AbsorbentsOnline recommends the Pro Wringer for any facility that uses absorbent pads and rolls regularly. Most absorbent pads can be wrung out and reused 5-8 times before disposal -- the Pro Wringer pays for itself quickly by dramatically extending the useful life of every pad and roll you purchase.

The 19-inch wide rollers handle full-width absorbent pads and rolls, and the built-in 24 in. x 24 in. collection sink captures wrung-out liquids for proper disposal. For high-volume operations, the optional Motor Drive Kit converts the hand-crank operation to electric power (110-120V) -- reducing operator fatigue and increasing throughput significantly.

Pro Tip: Position the Pro Wringer near your main work areas to encourage reuse -- when it's convenient, workers are far more likely to wring and reuse rather than discard.

Frequently Asked Questions

Pro Wringer

What can the Extractor-Pro extract from?

The Extractor-Pro handles any type of sorbent pad, sock, boom, or pillow. The 19-inch rollers accept 18-inch pads with no folding, as many as 4 each 3-inch socks at one time, plus 5-inch, 6-inch, and some 8-inch booms. It has also been used for production extraction in fabric, chemical, and leather tile applications.

How efficient is the extraction process?

In an EPA report, the Extractor achieved up to 79% de-saturation efficiency. The EPA concluded it pays for itself in 2.8 to 5 weeks and that annual savings of 51% to 75% could be realized. Most absorbent pads can be wrung out and reused 5-8 times.

Why does the Extractor-Pro mount to a closed-head drum?

In many states, EPA and Fire Codes will not allow flammable or potentially hazardous liquids to be collected into an open-head drum. The closed-head mount eliminates the need for transfer pumps, prevents spills, eliminates the cost of a second drum, and cuts quadruple handling labor.

What safety features does it have?

Quick-release pins for instant pressure release (only unit on the market with this), offset rollers for finger safety, adjustable leaf spring pressure, double spring roller guides for even pressure, and an anti-spill drain tube that notifies when 5-gallon capacity remains.

What makes the roller design superior?

Offset roller design for easier starting and safety. Specially textured nitrile surface resists chemicals and hydrocarbons. Both rollers are chain-driven for slippery materials. 19-inch width is over 50% wider than competitors. Adjustable 0-2 inch roller opening for booms and pillows.

Can I convert to electric operation?

Yes. The optional Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) features an ultra heavy-duty reversible dual-roller geared motor with foot pedal on/off, NEMA spec housing, and keyed switch for authorized operators. Available in 110-120V AC and 12V DC on special order.

What are the dimensions and weight?

24 inches wide x 24 inches long x 26 inches high, weighing 108 lbs. Custom extractor widths and custom voltages are available. Ships via UPS or Truck.

How does the Extractor-Pro differ from standard wringers?

The Extractor-Pro is a collection system, not just a wringer. It includes a patented collection sink, chain-driven rollers, offset roller design, closed-head drum mount, 19-inch width, feed shelf and drainage grid, and optional motor drive. Standard wringers lack these features and can make extraction a mess.
