1. Bilge Alarm Device


1.1. General
The Bilge Alarm Monitor OMD 2005 has been designed acc. IMO requirements to be
used to fulfil Marpol 73/78 with 15ppm oily water separator and has a specification
and performance which exceeds the requirements of the IMO (International Maritime
Organisation) specifications for Bilge Alarm Monitors contained in Resolution
MEPC.107 (49). All monitors are inspected and tested to the related I.M.O.
requirements at the factory prior to delivery.
The Bilge Alarm Monitor OMD 2005 is supplied with 2 works-adjusted alarms: alarm
1 at 14ppm and alarm 2 at 15ppm ex factory.
If an alarm set point is exceeded, the alarms are shown at the front panel and the
appropriate relays are switched. In case of malfunction, the System LED at the front
panel will change from flashing green to permanent red and the appropriate relay will
switch the contacts to alarm.
For the data logging function the Bilge Alarm Monitor OMD 2005 requires a status
input from the oily water separator and a feedback signal from the sample water 3-
way valve position switch. See Fig. 2, Pos.6.
Furthermore a 0(4) - 20 mA (equal to 0 - 30ppm oil content) signal output is available
for the connection of a recorder or external meter proportional.
The water sample is taken from the vertical water flow before of an orifice to have
enough sample water supply pressure.
The following National IMO-type test certificates in accordance with MEPC.107(49)
are available, issued by the national authorities of the countries listed below.
The list is an interim one and might be incomplete, as further national certification has
been applied for.

1.2. Scattered light measuring method


An optical sensor array measures a combination of light scattered and absorbed by
oil droplets in the sample water. The sensor signals are processed by a
microprocessor to produce linearised output.
At exeeding of the adjusted limiting values (see item 1.1) 2 oil alarm relays are switched
after the adjusted time delay (ex works 2 sec.).
The microprocessor continuously monitors the condition of the sensor components
and associated electronics to ensure that calibration accuracy is maintained over the
time and different environmental conditions.

Bilge Alarm Monitor OMD 2005 for SKIT S DEB 0.25-10.0 6.Edition V301115002 Page 5

1.4. Adjustment
The Bilge Alarm Monitor OMD 2005 is delivered with a works calibration according
the IMO-requirements.
The "Zero" point is also works calibrated and can be re-adjusted on site by using the
programming mode and clean water. See sections 5.3 / 5.6.
The calibration is not permitted. This has to be done according IMO Regulations by
the manufacturer or persons authorised by the manufacturer.

1.5. Displays and Alarms


In the Bilge Alarm Monitor OMD 2005 are two independent alarm circuits available.
Both can be set separately from 2 to 15ppm.
The alarm point 1 is set at 14ppm and alarm point 2 is set at 15ppm ex works. Both
alarm circuits can be adapted to the operation conditions. The set point of alarm 1
can be changed according to the requirements on site between 2ppm and 14ppm
and the alarm 2 can be set between 2ppm and 15ppm. For a proper operation of the
adsorber bypass, the alarm circuit 1 must be at least 1 ppm lower adjusted as the
alarm circuit 2. An alarm point setting above 15ppm is accordingly to the IMO
requirements not possible.

The lower the value of the alarm circuit 1 is adjusted, all the
shorter is the life time of the adsorber cartridges.
Information
The adjustment can be done in the programming mode as described in section 5.6
“Programming Mode”.
In this mode also the individual adjustment of the time delays for the alarms (both
alarm circuits are set to two seconds ex works) and the change between 0 - 20 mA or
4 - 20 mA output can be done.
Both alarm circuits are also related with a LED on the front panel.
In case of malfunction the “System” LED will indicate any type of internal fault of the
Bilge Alarm Monitor OMD 2005. This LED is flashing green in normal condition and is
permanent red in alarm condition. Additional to the alarm LED's each alarm circuit is
equipped with a relay with potential free alarm contacts. These contacts can be used
for external processing of the signal or for control of further functions.
If a malfunction or failure of the power supply occurs, all 3 relays will switch to alarm
condition.

1.6. Design of the Bilge Alarm Device


There are 3 main parts which are contained in a Bilge Alarm Monitor OMD 2005:
• The computer unit is mounted into an epoxy powder painted steel housing to
protect the display PCB with the data logger and the main board PCB with the
terminals for environmental influences.
• The separate measuring cell is made of an anodized aluminium body with inlet
and outlet block in stainless steel. This rugged design protects the optical
electronic and correspond with the computer unit via a plugged data cable.
• The valve assembly contains a special handle to sense the position of the valve.
This assembly is connected to the measuring cell by an easy to handle fitting to
enable the exchange of the cell for frequently adjustment according the IMO
requirements.

Bilge Alarm Monitor OMD 2005 for SKIT S DEB 0.25-10.0 6.Edition V301115002 Page 6

All components are mounted to a stainless steel mounting plate for easy wall or
bulkhead installation. It is also possible to split the computer unit from the measuring
cell if the available space is not sufficient. For this version divided mounting plates
are available.

5.3. Functional Tests


a) Run oil free water through the instrument to clean the system.
b) Switch on the instrument and make sure, that the Power LED is illuminated and
the display is
showing the initial
display for about 15
sec. After that time
it will change to the
standard display,
showing the actual measurement value.
c) During oil free water is flowing through the Bilge Alarm Monitor OMD 2005 check
the Zero standard adjustment according section 5.6 “Programming Mode”. The
display should be between "0" to “2” and the status will show “FW”. If the display
varies by greater values, it may be that air bubbles are present. If this is the
case, the cause must be identified and avoided.
d) If "Zero" need to be adjusted, this can be done in the programming mode as
described in section 5.6 “Programming Mode”.

5.4. Alarm
Please note for better understanding:
• in alarm status the position of the alarm switch is open (potential-free,
Information de-energised)
• if the power supply is interrupted or the system is not in service, the
position of the alarm switch is also in alarm position open,
(potential-free, de-energised)
The alarm circuit will be closed as soon as the main switch of the
OWS control box is in „off“ position i. e. no alarm signal will be
transmitted as long as the oily water separator is not in service.
When oily water flows through the instrument the display will show the actual value of
oil content. If the oil concentration exceeds the adjusted limiting values of the alarm
circuits, the alarm indicator of the appropriated alarm circute will be illuminated in
intervals during the selected time delay before it change to steady light and the
associated alarm relay will operate

5.5. Monitor control functions


The Bilge Alarm Monitor OMD 2005 is delivered with a works adjustment according
the IMO-requirements (pre settings: alarm circuit 1 -. 14ppm, alarm circuit 2 –
15ppm).
To investigate the performance of the OWS continuously and to protect the adsorber,
periodically every 5 minutes a sample is taken from sample point after OWS / before
adsorber to check the actual oil content in the effluent of the OWS.
If the oil content will be below the limiting value of the alarm circuit 1 (14ppm) again,
the 3-way bypass valve (OWS pos. 58) will change to adsorber bypass. If the oil
content after the OWS is still higher or equal than 14ppm the water flow remains via
the adsorber.
If the oil content is even or higher than the limiting value of the alarm circuit 2
(15ppm) at the sample point after adsorber, the water will be recirculated by the 3-
way diverting valve (OWS pos. 23) to the bilgewater tank and the alarm signal is
activated to the ship’s alarm system. If the oil content is below 15ppm the water will
be discharged overboard.

6. Calibration
According MEPC.107(49) Bilge Alarm Monitor OMD 2005 have to be protected
against access beyond the checks of instrument drift, repeatability of the instrument
reading and zero adjustment. For this reason the instrument is electronically sealed,
so that only the manufacturer or his authorised persons, equipped with the related
tools, are able to get access for changing the calibration.
To provide a simple procedure for check the instrument aboard ship, the Bilge Alarm
Monitor OMD 2005 is constructed in that way, that the zero check also confirms the
instrument drift within the specifications.

Calibration and repeatability check


a) Switch off the power supply and stop any water flow.
b) Clean the sample tube accurately by using the cell cleaning brush as described
under section 8 “Maintenance”. Make sure, that the “zero” point is correct at ± 0.
c) Run clean water through the instrument.
d) Switch on power supply
e) If it is sure, that clean water without any air bubbles is in the instrument, the
reading should be 0ppm ± 2ppm.
f) Continue as described under section 5.2 and 5.3.

7. Monitor operation
Up to 0,25 m³ OWS capacity the whole water flow through the Bilge Alarm Monitor.
For a OWS capacity over 0,25 m³ a part of the water of the oily water separator is led
via a bypass through the monitor. For this, a back-pressure orifice plate (oily water
separator pos. 11) is built into the main flow between the pump and the 3-way
recirculation valve (oily water separator pos. 23). The amount of the flow through the
monitor is, as a rule, already set up in the factory.

7.1. Operating instructions


a) Switch on the power supply.
b) Allow a period of time for water entering the sample tube.
c) Flow oil free water through the system for a few minutes and check that the display
show 0 to 2ppm. If not, clean proper before adjusting the Bilge Alarm Monitor OMD
2005 according section “8. Maintenance”.
d) Switch the instrument sample supply from the clean water supply to the separator
sampling point connection.
e) The instrument is now ready for use.

7.2. Monitoring operation and alarm events during operation


a) When water containing oil flows through the device, the oil concentration is
indicated by the display. The alarm LED’s, (see Fig. 2) show green.
b) If the oil concentration should exceed the pre adjusted limiting values of both alarm
circuits, the alarm LED’s change from "GREEN" to "RED" and both relays (alarm
relay 1 and 2) switch over after 2 seconds. The OWS control unit process these
signals and controls with that
• the adsorber by pass
• the recirculation valve (OWS pos. 23)
• the common alarm relay

8. Maintenance
AT WEEKLY INTERVALS:
a) Flush the cell with oil free water.
b) Isolate the instrument from both, sample and oil free water supply.
c) Unscrew and remove the cell cap.
d) Insert the Cell Cleaning brush into the cell and clean it with upwards and
downwards motion through the entire length of the cell several times.
e) Remove the Cell Cleaning brush and replace the cell cap.
f) Reconnect the oil free water supply and allow this to flow through the instrument
for a few minutes.
g) Observe that the display is showing "0" to “2”. If not, clean again.
h) Examine the color of the desiccator (Fig. 2, pos. 11). Blue color is indicating an
active moisture absorber. If the color is light blue or white, the desiccator should be
replaced.
The desiccator assures a humidity below 40% inside the measuring cell housing to
avoid wrong measurement resulting due to condensation at the surface of the cell
glass tube and damage of the electronics around the glass tube. The replacement
is easy done without opening the instrument. Just unscrew the old desiccator out
of the front panel and replace it by a new one. The protection cap of the spare unit
can be also used as a tool.
i) Reconnect the instrument to the separator sampling point.

9.2. Memory Card (refer to Fig. 4)


The Memory Card is located inside the door of the computer housing. It is suitable for
the life of the instrument, as it is calculated to the according MEPC 107(49) required
storage time of at least 18 month. When the card is full, the oldest entry will be
overwritten, so that a replacement is not necessary.
Under normal use the card should not be taken out, as this is linked with the specific
system. The card can be read in other Bilge Alarm Monitors OMD 2005, but writing is
only possible in the related system.

11. Exchange Parts Service


11.1. General
All Bilge Alarm Monitors in our range are inspected and tested to I.M.O. requirements
at our factories prior to delivery.
In normal use the Bilge Alarm Monitors should operate correctly and without fault
over a long period of time requiring only small amounts of maintenance to be carried
out as outlined in the instruction manuals.

11.2. Exchange Equipment Service


If, in spite of the care mentioned above, it should come to an equipment failure, we
recommend you to order a complete exchange monitor from us.
This ensures that, after the exchange, you have a monitor on board that has been
overhauled and tested in our factory.
The defective device which has been replaced should then be sent back to us
immediately.
If you return the defective Bilge Alarm Monitor OMD 2005 to us within a reasonable
period of time (30 days), RWO will only charge costs for the exchange monitor.
Otherwise we must charge the full sum shown on the invoice which accompanies the
exchange monitor we send to you.
Experience has shown that this offers the customer the most reasonable price and
ensures at the same time that a device is employed which meets the IMO
specifications.

Note:

Accordingly to the rules of the MEPC.107(49) § 4.2.11. At the renewal of the IOPP
certificate the unit must be checked by the manufacturer or a person authorised by the
manufacturer. Alternative the unit can be replaced by a ready calibrated Bilge Alarm
Monitor. The special design of the OMD-2005 permits that only the measuring cell must
be replaced, because this part is the only relevant part for the calibration. The
certificate with the date of the last calibration must be stored on board to be in the
position to present the certificate to the authorities.

If for any reason the computer unit also must be replaced it must
be sure that the memory card remains on board for at least 18
month. The new computer unit is equipped with a memory card
of his own. The old memory card only can be read in the new
Important unity, storage of data can carried out only on the newly delivered
card.
For more details see chapter 9.2

11.3. Exchange of electronic components


Because of small variations in the characteristics of components of the same type, it
is recommended to calibrate the Bilge Alarm Monitor OMD 2005 after repair and
replacement of such components (except for relays, fuses, etc.). This calibration work
only may be carried out by the manufacturer or a person authorised by the
manufacturer.
Otherwise it can come to faulty display values and, if the display value is very low, to
exceeding the allowable limit of oil in water.
For the above reasons, only the possibility to order to a service exchange Bilge Alarm
Monitor OMD 2005 from us remains.
