Elevator Sump Systems

Oilsense

Simple. Reliable. Trusted to Protect the Environment.

OilSense is a simple yet effective system designed to provide pump control and alarm notification of potentially threatening water and oil levels in pumping applications. The OilSense system features a premium quality, chemical spill rated pump along with an extremely reliable, easy to operate control panel. It also includes innovative oil/water probes that sense the difference between oil and water so that water is removed from the tank without oil being pumped into the environment. Common applications include elevator sump basins, transformer vaults, leachate well and effluent applications and garages for residential, commercial, industrial, effluent wastewater and site drainage needs.

Performance Data

Series Specifications

Normal Operation

As water and oil enter the tank, the oil rises to create a floating layer on top of the water. The water level rises to reach the Start Probe, activating the pump to remove water from the tank. It continues pumping water out of the tank until the water level falls below the Stop Probe, deactivating the pump. 

High Water Alarm

If the water level continues to rise and reaches the High Water Probe, the red high water LED indicator illumi­nates, the audible alarm sounds, and auxiliary contacts close, activating the remote alarm. 

High Oil Alarm

If the oil level rises to activate the mechanical High Oil Float, the red high water LED indicator illuminates, the audible alarm sounds, and auxiliary contacts close, activating the remote alarm.
