    This document discusses oil content monitors, which are devices used on ships to measure the oil content in bilge water. The monitors sample water flowing from oily water separators and sound an alarm if the oil content exceeds 15 parts per million. They also automatically divert water over the limit to bilge holding tanks instead of discharging it overboard. Regulations require monitors to record equipment status every 15 seconds for 18 months and include a 3-way valve for diverting contaminated water. Monitors help prevent illegal discharges by shutting down separators or recirculating water when the oil content limit is exceeded.
