Application
The oil & turbidity detector consists of the measuring sensor ORG 12 or ORG 22 and the
measuring transducer ORT 6 (operating and display unit). The type of measuring sensor
depends on the fluid to be used.
The oil & turbidity detector OR 52-5/-6 is used for monitoring transparent liquids to detect
any ingress of insoluble foreign matter. The equipment is mainly used for industrial
processes and in the foodstuff industry where high level of reliability and ease of
maintenance are required.
The equipment combination can be used for marine applications in order to monitor
microfiltering equipment in accordance with IMO (International Maritime Organization)
resolution MEPC.60(33) and EC directive 96/98/eec (MED) as 15 ppm oil content alarm.
In steam boiler plants condensate and feedwater can be monitored for oil and grease
contamination (according to TRD 604 sheet 1 paragraph 2.1.1 with 3/5 ppm). In addition,
the oil & turbidity detector is well suited for raw water monitoring and water treatment
(sand filters, demineralization plants, reverse-osmosis plants) as well as waste-water
monitoring.
The OR 52 is also used in breweries and the beverage industry (filtration, monitoring of wort,
quality assurance etc.) and in the salad oil production for monitoring filtering processes.
Note
When using the equipment as 15 ppm oil content alarm acc. to IMO please
take the following into consideration:
Microfilter installations usually consist of an oil/water separator followed by
a filter, the so-called coalescer. Gravity coalescer systems cannot split up
stable water/oil emulsions, which are formed with certain cold cleaning
agents and then accumulate in the bilge. We therefore recommend
suitable fast-separating cold cleaning agents which will not produce
stable water-oil emulsions.
