Measure build-up of hydrocarbons on water.
ID-225 Oil thickness sensor
mitigate risk of water pollution
minimal maintenance
early detection
The LEAKWISE ID-225 Oil Thickness Sensor measures the thickness and monitors the buildup of hydrocarbons and other organic solvents on water.
There are two sub-models ID-225/100 & ID-225/200 for different maximum measured oil layer thicknesses: the ID-225 detects sheens as low as 1.0 mm and measures hydrocarbon thickness from 1-200 mm.
Many petroleum and power companies use the ID-225 for early detection, warning, and control of oil leaks and spills in the following applications:
- Remediation control
- Monitoring oil thickness changes over time in groundwater wells to enable effective oil removal methods
- Monitoring effectiveness of remediation techniques
- Implementing automatic on/off control
- Skim tanks — The ID-225 is inserted into a tank through an inspection hatch, enabling automatic starting and stopping of skimming operation with pre-set thickness parameters.
- Monitoring oil/water separators — An ID-225 can monitor oil layer thickness build up in the separator without human intervention.
- Wastewater sewer monitoring — Installing an ID-225 in the sewer near the process area will detect and control hydrocarbon leaks at the source, reducing the load from the treatment plant and preventing spills.
The ID-225 Oil Thickness Sensor is used in conjunction with one of three controllers, depending on the application.
- The PS-220 Controller is an analog signal processor and power supply in a NEMA 4 enclosure, and supports a single ID-220 Leakwise sensor.
- The SLC-220 Digital Signal Processor for Multiple (2 / 4 standard, more in a network) ID-220 Series sensor support, with various output options, including relay, lights, 4-20 mA, LCD, Modbus in RS-232 and RS-485 communication, and cellular remote connectivity.
- The WSP-220 Wireless communication – Point-to-Point data radio.
