The FluoroCheck II is a benchtop and transportable unit for discrete sample measurements of ppm hydrocarbons in water.

Direct water samples for screening or an EPA approved hexane oil extraction method may be used.

Benchtop and field monitoring of petroleum oils in:

• wastewater and groundwater
• industrial effluents
• cooling water
• produced water

The FluoroCheck II offers a fast and easy approach to the measurement of hydrocarbon oils in water. Filtered light energy targets the aromatic component of the water sample and measures the hydrocarbon fluorescence. Through an Arjay or site specific calibration, this aromatic tag is correlated to a total oil reading of your sample.

Arjay offers two test modes in one instrument; letting you determine the most suitable approach for your testing needs. You can choose from the factory preset calibrations for immediate on-site use or do your own calibration specific to your site. You can even run routine solvent-free tests and easily switch to a solvent extraction when a more selective test is warranted. All tests use disposable cuvets to eliminate cross-contamination and cleaning issues.

Continuous capacitance/dielectric monitoring of liquids and solids

This unique system provides complete flexibility for monitoring solids and liquids for concentration, moisture content, blending, and quality control.

The 4100-CAP sensing probe monitors the capacitance field around the probe within a shield, tank or pipe.

As the dielectric characteristics of a fluid or solid change, the resulting capacitance change is monitored and configured into a useable signal for process control and recording. A display is available in user configured engineering units.

Product dielectric changes in your application may not be strictly linear. Arjay has designed a 5-point calibration into the controller to enhance accuracy over an extended measurement range. This instrument is ideal for general monitoring and trending of process conditions.

Reliable monitoring of process conditions and concentration

The sensing probe continuously monitors the dielectric stability of the product. Changes in dielectric can be tagged to product quality changes, moisture content, emulsions, concentrations and product phase changes. Typical applications include liquid blending, moisture content of solids, upset product intrusion or separation, and general product quality.

The 2852-CAP sensing probe monitors the capacitance field around the probe.

The active portion of the probe is fully submerged into the liquid or solid to the point of targeted interest. Changes in product dielectric due to blending of other products, moisture content of solids, or process cracking will cause a positive or negative capacitance change around the probe. This change is used to provide a 4-20 mA proportional output, and two set-point alarm relays.

Reliable monitoring of sumps and containments for oil spills

For separated Oil-on-Water applications, Arjay offers the Hydrocarbon Float Sensor. This floating sensor monitors the surface of water in sumps, tanks, and lagoons to alert when oil has separated to the water surface. This is typically used to alert of spills or control pumps.

The 2852-HCF sensor monitors the surface dielectric and locks in on the capacitance of the water.

Oil that separates to the surface changes the capacitance field and activates the relay alarms.

This unit is typically used in sumps or containments where oil is not typically present. Normal sheens will not alarm but an upstream leak or spill that accumulates in the sump will alarm the monitor. The floating design allows the unit to track the changing water level in the sump and immediately alert operators, pumps or valves if there is an accumulation of oils.

Continuous monitoring of separated oil thickness on a water surface

The 4100-HCF monitors a floating sensor on the water surface to indicate the thickness of separated oil. An LCD display of the thickness, analog output and relay alarms are standard.

The 4100-HCF float sensor monitors the capacitance field of the water surface.

As the oil accumulates on the surface, the sensor capacitance changes. This interface signal is used to provide outputs, displays and relay control.

Optional Interfaces

Analog Output 4-20 mA non-isolated
Communication RS-485 Modbus

Continuous profiling of oil/water interface and emulsions in tanks

Multiple capacitance probes staggered in an oil/water separator will provide a profile of the emulsion location and thickness.

The 4100-PRO uses multiple sensing probes to measure the capacitance field at distinct points within the tank.

The resulting profile can be used to track the vertical location of an interface/rag layer and the emulsion thickness. The data can be used for flow control, diluent and other chemical injection, and alarms of impending control excursions. This instrument is ideal for trending of process conditions to maximize your oil/water separation efficiency.

Optional Interfaces

Analog Output 4-20 mA non-isolated
Communication RS-485 Modbus

The HydroSense 4410-LMP Oil in Water Analyser offers continuous on-line monitoring for ppm concentrations of petroleum oils in effluent and produced water without chemicals or lag time. A non-contacting sensor design minimizes system maintenance.

The re-designed 4410-LMP replaces the old 2410-LMP and is suitable for Class I, Zone 2 locations without the use of a purge.

The 4410-LMP is the engineered combination of three unique designs:

• The sensing chamber contributres a continuous controlled water sample
• While the optical sensor package hovers above the passing strean
• The Arjay controller then monitors the multiple signals to provide a reliable ppm concentration output

This Oil in Water Analyser uses a UV fluorescence technique to target the aromatic component of the oil contamination. Through a site calibration this aromatic tag provides an indication relative to total oil. A continuous sample flow is tapped or pumped off the process line and directed through the HydroSense chamber. It passes behind the noncontacting UV light source and is targeted with filtered light energy. The soluble and emulsified oils in the water will excite from this light energy and fluoresce light energy back out of the water at a signature wavelength. The intensity of light energy at this wavelength is measured to provide an indication of the ppm concentration.
