Aluline Separators Alarms
Separators are generally installed as part of a drainage system and are typically underground.
They are designed to intercept and retain any hydrocarbons (oils) which have entered the drains
and prevent them from reaching the watercourse (rivers). If the Separator accumulates too much
oil, this can pass through the Separator and be released to the local watercourses causing a
pollution incident, this can result in heavy fines and clean up costs for the person responsible.
In accordance with the Environment Agencys PPG3 guidelines, all Separators must be provided with
a robust device to provide visual and audible warning.
Aluline supply a full range of visual and audible warning devices including: standard mains and solar powered
alarms as well as mains and solar powered GSM alarm which will send text messages to a mobile
phone of your choice. All Aluline Separator Alarms are ATEX approved.
A total of three probes can be fitted in the Separator to automatically monitor oil, silt and liquid
levels, notifying immediately when the Separator needs emptying and therefore eliminating unnecessary
waste management visits.

The standard system is supplied complete with an intrinsically safe control unit together with a high oil
probe and a steel mounting stand.
The control unit is capable of monitoring up to 6 probe units in 2 separator tanks (3 probes per tank), to
automatically monitor oil, silt and liquid levels notifying immediately when the Separator needs emptying and
therefore eliminating unnecessary waste management visits.
