Washdown Alarms
The Aquasentry washdown tank alarm is used to monitor silt and liquid levels in underwater washdown areas.
The unit allows the user to set a high-level probe at a pre-determined level to ensure that the washdown area does not overflow in the event of heavy rainfall or usage.
With the GSM capability, in the event of a high-level event, the site is protected 24/7 and reduces the risk of a pollution incident, whilst reducing waste management costs.
Product Details
General operation
Installation
An alarm system with up to 3 probe sensors is installed within the washdown tank to automatically detect the water and silt levels of within.
Warning
If excessive levels are reached, the alarm activates a klaxon or beacon (sold separately) to provide an audible or visual notification of excessive liquid levels, as well as sending a text message to up to 16 designated numbers.
Take action
Alarm warnings allow you time to take corrective action ensuring the safe and economic operation of washdown area separators, preventing oil from 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 require simple installation.
