Leakwise* Oil-on-Water Monitoring & Detection

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Leakwise system by GE Power & Water is designed for the detection, monitoring, and control of hydrocarbons on water surfaces. It provides early warning and continuous monitoring capabilities, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations and reducing potential costs associated with oil spills.
Key Features:
  • Continuous detection of hydrocarbons starting at 0.3 mm thickness.
  • Linear measurement of hydrocarbon layers from 1 to 200 mm or more.
  • Easy installation and maintenance-free operation.
  • Reliable performance despite sensor coating, water salinity, or temperature changes.
  • Compliance with EPA regulations and certified for hazardous areas.
  • User-adjustable alarm set points for low and high oil levels.
  • Multiple output options including relays, indicator lights, and wireless communication.
Technology: Leakwise sensors utilize a patented high-frequency Electromagnetic Absorption Technique to detect hydrocarbons. The sensors can differentiate between water and hydrocarbons based on absorption rates, providing accurate measurements of hydrocarbon thickness and water content in emulsions.
Applications: Leakwise systems are applicable across various industries including oil/petrochemical, power generation, offshore, transport, manufacturing, and water treatment. Specific applications include oil refineries, pipelines, stormwater runoff, transformer switchyards, and more.
System Components: The system comprises wired or wireless signal processors and sensors. The sensors are intrinsically safe and designed for long-term, maintenance-free operation.
Product Variants:
  • ID-223: Suitable for dry and wet sumps, open channels, and catch basins.
  • ID-227WL/PTP: Wireless monitoring for offshore and open water areas.
  • ID-225: Measures oil thickness in separators, traps, and tanks.
  • PS-220: Offers analog single sensor control, with weatherproof and explosion-proof options.
  • SLC-220DSP-220: Provides digital multiple sensor controls.
Contact Information: GE Analytical Instruments has offices in the Americas, Europe/Middle East/Africa, and Asia Pacific, providing global support and services.
