Remote Oil Spill Detection & Alarm System

Monitoring and detecting oil spills as they occur in real-time accelerates response time – thus substantially reducing cleanup/remediation costs and potential damage to the environment. Building on 60 years of sensor/systems innovation, InterOcean Systems Inc has developed the optimum solution for this requirement. Slick Sleuth™ is a highly effective, cost-saving system which is easy to install and is totally autonomous. Because the optics-based oil detection sensor is mounted above the water, maintenance and downtime are virtually eliminated. There is no bio-fouling, leaking, exposure to pollutants or debris, mooring hassles, or other liabilities often associated with in-water sensor packages.
Slick Sleuth™ is an automated, optical (non-contact), oil-on-water sensor system that remotely alerts users to the presence of oil as an early warning mechanism (not unlike a ´smoke alarm´ for oil spills). If oil is detected, the system generates signal output for real-time alarm, computer display, and auto-dial phone alert. The signal may also be used to actuate (switch open/close) valves, a feature often used in industrial application to prevent (what every environmental manager fears) discharge of polluted oil-laden outfall into the environment from a facilities retention ponds, waterways,outfalls, sumps, etc...
Slick Sleuth™ is effective for spill monitoring in a wide array of applications, including offshore, ports and harbors,industrial/petrochemical, power plants, manufacturing facilities, intake protection, protection of sensitive habitats, etc...
