Water contamination in fuel can cause numerous problems such as loss of revenue, corrosion, accelerated component wear rates, microbiological growth and loss of power as an example . These problems can be prevented by online monitoring , so that problems can be averted in time.

EASZ-1- A DEVICE FOR CONTINOUS MEASUREMENT OF WATER IN FUEL

Continuous and accurate monitoring of water in fuel

The EASZ-1 is a real-time fuel monitor that fits in-line and continuously monitors the fuel flow for water contamination. Its applications are universal . The EASZ-1 does not monitor water contamination in tanks but in the actual flowing stream. With a fast response, the presence of abnormalities in the fuel such as free water can be picked up immediately and reported. Continuous monitoring of water in fuel gives valuable data to owners and operators on fuel condition in between spot sampling which can sometimes be very long periods of time.

The Water In Fuel Problem

Even today water in fuel is a problem we are living with. Its causes are manifold, the solutions are inadequate and its effects range from minor inconvenience to major catastrophe. Some of the causes for water in fuel contamination are contaminated or poorly maintained fuel supply outlets, condensation in the fuel tank, fuel separation, poorly maintained fittings leading to water ingress and in some cases in developing countries the problem of theft/contamination .
The result of water in fuel contamination is engine and fuel system parts damage. The cost can be extensive in terms of money and time. Unfortunately, in particular situations, the results of a breakdown still result in loss of life and vessels. The resulting repairs could involve the complete change or major overhaul of an engine in serious conditions. In the case of diesel a secondary consequence of water in fuel contamination is the 'Diesel Bug', but the eradication of water will eradicate the fungus causing it. Common sense dictates that good water in fuel contamination monitoring and warning will help in diesel bug prevention. A good online water in diesel monitor will also enable operators to see what has been happening in between oil spot sampling periods, something that brings more awareness of what is continually happening over 24 hour periods whether good or bad.
