The KPS oil-in-water analysers are used either for determining the quality of the oil during oil production (BS&W) or for legislation purposes (to prevent any penalties or discussions on environmental issues).
Oil-in-wateranalysers are also used to get more information on the behaviour of water emissions, and for efficiency reasons like “what does it cost to make a barrel of slop oil?”
KPS has developed as a specialist in the field of oil-in-water analyzers. Our oil-in-water analyzers are installed in this area at almost all the major oil storage terminals and refineries home and abroad.

The large product portfolio of oil-in-water and water-in-oil measurements, allows KPS to be a solution provider. Depending upon the needs the best oil-in-water measurement can be selected. The years of experience in oil-in-water analyses has allowed KPS to also give performance guarantees on the solutions that are provided. Furthermore, the oil-in-water measurements provided can be tested with similar process conditions using the KPS flow loop.

Instrumentation

Inov8 – Oil in Water Probes and Side Streams
Inov8 Systems was created and launched with a clear vision to research, develop and produce the world’s most innovative instrumentation and control systems, to address unresolved challenges. Leveraging decades of innovation experience in the oil & gas industry, Inov8 Systems introduce the next generation of products for general purpose markets in industrial and wastewater applications.

EXS Controller
Intelligent control – oil-in-water side stream

EXP Controller
Intelligent control – oil-in-water probe

The EXS/EXP analysers are part of a series of ultra-modern analysers that are designed to be the most robust and easy to use oil-in-water analysers available. The purpose of this technology is to provide continuous, accurate readings for oil-in-water concentration even under the most extreme conditions of process and/or climate.

RapidWave Ultrasonics – The EXP analyser uses RapidWave Ultrasonic cleaning to ensure the measurement window remains clean at all times. Traditional ultrasonics may keep the window clean for a few days or even weeks, however the latest discoveries made by our in-house engineers mean that the optical window can stay clean indefinitely.

Laser Induced Fluorescence (LIF) – LIF provides a consistent light output meaning there is no drift in results over time thereby eliminating the need for periodic recalibration.

Spectral Analysis – Traditional fluorescence based analysers measure on a single wavelength. The EXP analyser can provide full spectral analysis, such capability provides several necessary advantages:

⦁ Eliminate chemical interference that occurs in 99% of applications.
⦁ Oil type detection that offers the ability to switch calibration depending on water content so when different oil types come onstream or different chemicals are introduced the analyser will select the correct calibration curve.
⦁ Verifies that the analyser is reading accurately when commissioned and continues to do so despite process changes.

Exd Rating – The Exd rated probe contains all necessary input, output and control at one single housing eradicating the need for additional control boxes, junction boxes, purged enclosures etc.

GPP – General Purpose Oil in Water Measurement & Control

Leveraging decades of innovation experience in the oil & gas industry, Inov8 Systems introduce the next generation of products for general purpose markets in industrial and wastewater applications.
The GPP-1 analyser is one of a series of ultra-modern analysers that are designed to be the most robust and easy to use oil-in-water analysers available. The purpose of this technology is to provide continuous, accurate readings for oil-in-water concentration even under the most extreme conditions of process and/or climate.

AGAR – Interface Detectors
Agar provides innovative solutions that give reliable measurements for applications such as: heavy oil well testing, waste water treatment, automatic tank dewatering, desalters and gas liquid foam control.
The ID-200H Series Interface Detectors are 2 wire 4-20mA loop powered probes used for interface measurement and control in all types of liquid/liquid and vapor/liquid separation processes including emulsions and foam. A wide range of models are available for the control of a variety of process installations such as tanks, decanters, dehydrators, coalescers, etc. The ID-200 Series advanced systems and eliminate cross-contamination of separating phases.
