OilBug Single-zone Oil Leak Detector

Oil and Diesel Leak Detection

The Oilbug is an economical method of detecting the presence of substances such as oil and diesel. It uses a dedicated sensor called the Redeye which employs sophisticated Optoschmitt technology to determine the presence of opaque liquids.

Spot monitoring for detection of oil and diesel leaks
Works from a mains or an external 12 – 24 VAC supply
A volt free relay output allows onward connection to other systems such as a BMS

On detecting the presence of oil or diesel the Redeye sensor detects a change in the refractive index, which immediately puts the Oilbug into an alarm state. There are two versions of the Oilbug, the BMS Oilbug and the Oilbug+. The BMS Oilbug has no local alarm outputs and is simply connected via a volt free relay to the BMS. On the detection of a leak the relay will changeover and the BMS will alert to the situation. The Oilbug+ has the same functionality as the BMS Oilbug with the addition of a local audio and visual output on the alarm panel.

Typical applications include oil/diesel storage tanks, fuel feed pipelines, boiler houses and plant rooms.

The Oilbug can have up to 2 Redeye sensors wired in parallel attached, allowing more than one area to be monitored simultaneously.

Accessories

Redeye Oil Sensor Probe

	The Redeye is an adjustable floor mounted probe and is used for the detection of oil based substances such as diesel and fuel oil.
	The Redeye detects any change in the refractive index from the surface it is looking at.

Valves

	Solenoid valves are available for controlling the flow of oil to either switch off the supply in the event of a leak or switch it on when demanded.
	Valves are available in sizes between ½” and 2” and have zero lift specification that does not require any pressure differential for them to operate.

RA Repeater

	This is a miniature alarm repeater designed as a stand-alone module and can be linked in series to repeat an alarm condition in several locations at the same time.
	The RA remote repeater panel can accept an alarm signal from any no-volt relay output. It can be used with the Waterbug, AquaTraq, OTF, OTMA, RGO, Oilbug and Redeye1 alarm panels.

Solodial Auto Dialler

	The SoloDial automatic dialling unit can dial up to eight different telephone numbers to alert the recipient when the alarm has been activated.
	The SoloDial automatic dialling unit can dial up to eight different telephone numbers to alert the recipient when the alarm has been activated.

SMS Alarm Auto Dialler

	The SMS alarm can be used to send a text message to up to five different phones when an alarm is triggered.
	Up to four different devices can be connected to the alarm inputs and a bespoke message for each transmitted. It works with any mobile network SIM card and requires no fixed telephone line to operate making it ideal for working in remote locations.

Beacons and Sounders

	When positioned on the outside of a room or on the outside of a building, the beacon/sounder can be used to alert that an alarm has been triggered.
	It has a very loud klaxon and a bright flashing light that would be difficult to ignore even from a considerable distance away.
