Smart Cell Bilge Alarm

By utilising the “Smart Cell” Detector Array Technology, developed by Rivertrace, the OCM analyses all three oil types (HFO, Diesel and Emulsions) simultaneously without the need for re-calibration. A manual cell cleaning device is included as standard to enable routine maintenance easily.

A manual cell cleaning device is included as standard to enable routine maintenance easily. Optical cell fouling is recognised as a leading cause of monitor malfunction or incorrect reading. By simple operation of the manual cleaning device, the Smart Cell remains in optimum operating condition. Replacement calibrated measuring cells can be purchased for easy change overboard the vessel, and calibration verification kits enable the crew to demonstrate the monitor is within factory calibration to PSC Surveyors.

The Smart Cell Bilge Alarm is readily available as a 5ppm version if required. It can also be tailor-made for Hazardous Environments (Zone 1 & 2) as an Exd system with Auto Clean, enclosed in an explosion-proof cabinet.

Flow switch

The flow switch option has been designed to ensure that bilge water flows through the measuring cell when monitoring mode. An error is shown on the display if there is no flow. The flow switch monitors the flow of water through the cell. This ensures that the flow cannot be shut off accidentally or maliciously. In the case of no flow, the Smart Bilge will close the overboard discharge valve.
