Controller feature provides display of level and oil thickness

Arjay Engineering announces the upgrade of their 4100-HCF controller to display liquid level in addition to the current oil thickness display. The updates are said minimize costs by eliminating the need for two controllers and providing level and oil thickness readings in one convenient location.
In applications where there are routine oily leaks such as refineries, oil production, airports and railways, the company says, there is generally a need to monitor for oil thickness and water level.
The enhanced 4100-HCF controller software connects to Arjay’s floating oil thickness sensor and any third-party level device, while the touch screen controller is said to provide a simple menu-driven operator interface and display where all the set-up, calibration and diagnostics take place.
The new feature is an add-on option that comes with the company’s floating oil thickness monitor. The monitor consists of a unique sensing probe that continuously monitors a water surface generally in tanks, pits or ponds, the company adds.
As the oil accumulates on the surface, the sensors capacitance changes. This interface signal is used to provide outputs, displays and relay control.
