TM Fuel Condition Monitoring & Control
Proven Laser Detection Technology Accurate and reliable detection of contaminants Velcon’s VCA and icount products use technology based on proven principles of light obscuration, refraction and light scattering. PARTICLE COUNTERS ICOUNT Particle counters, also known as Automatic particle counters (APC) measure the size and concentration of contaminants in fluids. Particle counters make use of a technology called light obscuration.
CONTAMINANT ANALYZERS VCA Solids Contaminant Sensor Contaminant analyzers measure the weight of solid particulate matter as well as the concentration of free water in a fluid. Contaminant analyzers use milligrams per liter (mg/l) to measure solid contaminants, and further use parts per million (ppm) to quantify free water contamination. Contaminant analyzers make use of light refraction technologies. Focused light refracts differently when striking solid particles compared to free water droplets.
Fuel Condition Monitoring Solutions to ensure clean dry fuel VCA® Velcon Contaminant Analyzer On-Line Monitoring of Solid and Water Contaminants TM icountACM20 Fuel Contamination Testing Wherever You Need 4
FAST AND RELIABLE THE VELCON SOLUTIONS In the past testing fuel quality has always been costly, time consuming, and done in laboratories. Some test can take days resulting in slow response to prevent poor quality fuel from contaminating components in expensive equipment. Although on-board filtration systems are in place to perform some filtration, these systems were not designed to deal with high contaminant levels.
VCA® Velcon Contaminant Analyzer (VCA) for Diesel Real-time Particulate and Water Monitoring DESCRIPTION BENEFITS The VCA system with a proper filtration system can provide assurance that the fueling system receives, maintains and dispenses fuel that meets ASTM D975 and ISO 4406 cleanliness levels.

icountOS Portable Condition Monitoring for Fuel Systems The icountOS (IOS) is an innovative solution to the challenge of measuring the quality of hydraulic oils and hydrocarbon fuels in many different applications: from renewable energy, marine and offshore, to manufacturing, mobile, agriculture, military and aerospace. Compact, lightweight and robust, the truly portable IOS makes field analysis simple, quick and easy.
The IOS quality condition monitor for hydrocarbon fuels uses advanced technology to produce extremely repeatable results. At the heart of the system is a sophisticated laser detector, using a light obscuration flow cell, providing continuous measurement of fluid flow passing through a sample tube. Measurements are taken every second as standard, although measurement intervals and test period can be defined by the user, with results being reported immediately and updated in real time.
Differential Pressure Monitor (DPM™) Differential Pressure Monitoring and Shutdown System The DPM continuously monitors the differential pressure between the inlet and outlet of a filter monitor or filter water separator vessel. The DPM monitors the condition of internal filter elements. In the event that the filter differential pressure reaches maximum allowable pressure, the industrial strength relay onboard the DPM control unit breaks the deadman circuit, effectively terminating the refueling operation.

Flow Differential Pressure Module (FDPM®) Automatic Calculation of Corrected Differential Pressure for Varying Flow Rates The FDPM® MK II builds on its field tested predecessor. Designed to comply with the requirements of industry standards such as ATA 103 and JIG Guidelines, the FDPM® MK II eliminates this normally complicated calculation by automatically calculating the condition of the filters inside a vessel based on the inputs from differential pressure and flow-rate sensors.
