Product Information

The mains powered interceptor alarm system with three probe sensors is installed within the separator to automatically detect the levels of oil, silt and liquid within. If excessive levels are reached, the alarm activates a klaxon 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 alarm system and sensors guarantee an increased level of safety and requires simple installation for bespoke monitoring of oil and petrol separators.

We can tailor your separator alarm to your requirements by displaying your name and contact details on the liquid crystal display and fitting your custom label (please ask for details).
