IP65 alarm unit WGA 01

For oil and petrol separators Layer thickness/overflow alarm Application Oil and petrol pose a great hazard to groundwater and waste water. WGA 01 monitors the thickness of the layer of separated liquid in oil and petrol separators and generates an alarm signal when it is time to drain the separator. In addition, the maximum level in the separator can be detected. This avoids overfilling that may be caused by clogged outlets or other circumstances. The unit keeps harmful substances from reaching the sewage water system. Description WGA 01 consists of a control unit, a capacitance probe (WGA-ES4) for monitoring the thickness of the oil or petrol layer and an optional additional PTC thermistor probe (WGA-R6) for detecting the maximum level (overflow alarm). The control unit is equipped with 2 relay outputs, visual and audible alarms as well as Test and Acknowledge buttons. The WGA-ES4 probe is mounted at least 150 mm below the constant level of the separator. As soon as the oil or petrol layer reaches the critical level, the device generates an alarm signal. By installing the optional WGA-R6 probe above the constant level, you can also monitor the maximum level. The control unit monitors the probes for short circuits or line interruptions.
