Optical Interface Detector

The simplicity of design and quality of engineering employed in the KAM OID Optical Interface Detector mean there are no moving parts. Fiber optics within the patented optical probe respond to the absorption, fluorescence, and refractive properties of the fluid which is turned into an analog signal, or "optical signature."

Measurement is fully automatic without the need for operator intervention or supervision. The output signal can be sent to the SCADA, PLC’s, or to a Central Control Room for logging or display on chart recorders or monitors.

Placing a preview OID sensor upstream and another at the station gives you the time and intelligence regarding the interface to always make the most advantageous cut.

The KAM OID sensor can be installed in an analyzer loop or in the main line, and because it’s easily mounted through a full-opening ball valve, you can insert or retract the probe without having to ever drain the pipe.
