Slick Sleuth™ Autonomous Oil Spill Detection Stations
(ADS) are used in a wide variety of industrial and environmental applications
for remotely detecting oil spills. (Network Array models are also available)
Should a spill occur, Slick Sleuth provides instant detection and notification,
that enables users to contain spill and avert environmental damage, costly
cleanup, and possible fines or regulatory penalties. The optical sensor detects
small (micron-level) amounts of oil in real-time, and can be configured to
automatically shut off pumps or valves, activate audio/visual alarms, and notify
personnel and responders via computer display and/or
telephone.
The system
consist of a stand-alone monitor, or a network array of strategically placed monitoring stations. Each may be
operated using AC power, or with a DC / solar recharge system for self-contained
operation in remote settings. Data is transmitted via hardwire for integration
with user’s data acquisition system, such as SCADA, PLC, or data logger.
Alternatively wireless data transmission using radio, cellular/GSM, or satellite
telemetry is available as required. Please consult with one of our application
engineers to discuss your specific system requirements for real-time spill detection and alert.
