Solar Powered Separator Alarm

Product Overview

The Solar Alarm removes the need for digging ducts and laying long cable runs, making installation efficient and cost effective. The solar separator alarm alerts the user of a fault by means of a flashing amber xenon beacon or via mobile phone text messaging.

The standard system is supplied complete with an intrinsically safe control unit together with a high oil probe and a steel mounting stand to automatically detect the levels of oil within.

The control unit is capable of monitoring up to 6 probe units in 2 separator tanks (3 probes per tank), to automatically monitor oil, silt and liquid levels notifying immediately when the separator needs emptying and therefore eliminating unnecessary waste management visits.

If excessive levels are reached the alarm activates a claxon or beacon to provide an audible or visual notification of excessive liquid levels. For more remote applications an alert can be transmitted by text message.

Alarm warnings allow you time to take corrective action ensuring the safe and economic operation of separators preventing oil passing through the separator and polluting watercourses which may result in expensive fines and clean up costs.

The status of the probes is displayed via a liquid crystal display which can be customised to display your messages.

There are 2 Solar Alarms available, the Beacon System alerts the user by means of a flashing amber xenon beacon, alternatively there is the GSM System which will alert the user via mobile phone text messaging.
