Electro-Chemical Devices OIW80 oil-in-water analyser

Click2Contact

ECD’s OIW80 oil-in-water analyser is designed to help detect oily water leaks quickly to help ensure effluent requirements are met to avoid shutdowns, fines and clean-ups.

The analyser’s fluorescence sensing technology identifies petrochemical leaks or spills and monitors treated effluent to help prevent drinking water pollution, protect ecosystems, reduce emergency shutdowns, product batch fouling, unplanned maintenance, regulatory corrective actions and fines.

The OIW80 measures oil over a wide range of 0–15 ppm (mg/L) and can be factory preconfigured to measure oil in multiple ranges or easily set in the field. The analyser’s sensor operates over a broad temperature range from 5 to 45°C, quickly detecting leaks and alerting plant technicians.

Suitable for dirty plant environments, the analyser features a rugged sensor with a built-in wiper cleaning system that removes bio-solids and films that might cloud the sensor window’s visibility, reducing the need for unplanned manual checks by technicians and scheduled maintenance cleanings.

Corrosion-resistant stainless steel (standard) or optional titanium construction meets the IP68 water ingress standard. The sensor communicates with ECD’s T80 Universal Transmitter upon oil detection or ECD’s LQ800 Controller or directly with a control system (PLC) via the sensor’s serial communications.
