VCA
®
Velcon Contaminant Analyzer (VCA) for Diesel
Real-time Particulate and Water Monitoring
DESCRIPTION
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.
As a “full–flow” analyzer, the VCA
mounts within a fuel delivery system
thereby providing a true representation
of the pipeline contents. The VCA
analyzes fuel at flow rates higher than
1000 gallons per minute through a 3 or
4-inch pipeline (contact Velcon for other
sizes).
The VCA uses two separate sensor
technologies to consistently differentiate
between water and solid contaminants.
The VCA analyzes the contents of flowing
fuel in a pipeline approximately 600
times a second, and outputs an averaged
result every two seconds in mg/l, ppm,
and a representative ISO 4406 code.
The VCA is an ideal tool to either
measure the quality of fuel at receipt,
assuring agreed upon cleanliness
specification are met, or at dispensing
points. The VCA provides data to
reassure the user that fuel cleanliness
is within limits and where not, may be
set to alarm or signal delivery system
shutdown.
BENEFITS
 Fuel quality accountability upon
receipt with record of fuel quality at
dispensing point
 System alarm or shutdown when
fuel contaminant levels exceeded
 Reduce equipment downtime by
preventing particulate and water
from entering fuel storage
 Vehicle Warranty Conformance by
assuring fuel meets ISO 4406 and
ASTM D975 Cleanliness Standards
 Fuel system peace of mind with
real-time constant monitoring of
your fuel condition
CONTAMINANT MEASUREMENT/
