Oil discharge monitoring equipment

A sample point on the discharge line allows for the analyzer to determine the oil content of the ballast now and slop water in PPM. The oily discharge is sent out to sea through a pump. The oily mixture has to pass through a series of sensors to determine whether it is acceptable to be sent to the discharge pipe. Based on regulations, the following values must be recorded by the system: ODME systems also have an analyzing unit that contains the Oil content meter, a fresh water valve for cleaning purposes, and a pressure transmitter that monitors the sample flow through the measuring cell. == See also ==
