 TD-4100 Oil in Water Monitor
An Overview
The Turner Designs TD-4100 reliably detects BTEX, gasoline, diesel, jet fuel and oil in water. The TD-4100 is a nonfouling continuous, on-line monitor that provides hydrocarbon and oil in water monitoring down to low ppb. The TD-4100 is installed for applications that require monitoring of treated and untreated wastewater streams ranging from industrial wastewater, groundwater, process water, produced, potable water intakes, and storm water run-off.
Why Continuous On-Line Monitoring?
Continuous on-line monitoring provides the most responsive feedback loop for measuring hydrocarbons in water. Continuous monitoring is reliable, effective, and recognized for its ability to improve process management for treating, discharging and detecting hydrocarbons in water. Compared to laboratory grab sample analysis, on-line monitoring provides cost effective, continuous, remote, operator unattended measurement of aromatic hydrocarbons in water.
Features of the TD-4100
The Unique Flowcell. The TD-4100 does not have a glass flow cell. Hydrocarbons are detected in a stream of water which falls through an open chamber; the stream does not contact, dirty or foul the optical windows used for oil in water monitoring. A proprietary Air Curtain system keeps optical Windows fog-free in humid environments or hot water applications.
Low Maintenance. There are no tubes, pumps or valves to replace. The system’s one moving part has a life expectancy of greater than 5 years. Routine maintenance involves changing a lamp twice a year and an air filter periodically.
Direct, Continuous Monitoring. The TD-4100 monitors a flowing water stream continuously. No chemicals, no pre-treatment and no manual manipulation of the sample are required to monitor aromatic hydrocarbons.
Accurate. The TD-4100 directly measures aromatic hydrocarbons in water with accuracies that consistently correlate to regulated laboratory methods.
Sensitive. BTEX, gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, crude oil, aromatic solvents and refined petroleum products containing aromatics are detected by the TD-4100 from low ppb (ug/L) to high ppm (mg/L). For example, the TD-4100 can detect 5 ppb of gasoline or diesel fuel in water free of interfering compounds.
Selective. The TD-4100 continuously measures the fluorescence of aromatic hydrocarbon compounds in water. Fluorescence occurs when a molecule absorbs light energy of one specific wavelength and emits light energy of a longer wavelength. Fluorescent compounds each have a unique signature, and these compounds can be displayed as an actual concentration.
Effective Monitoring in Dirty Water. Monitoring fluorescence makes the TD-4100 resistant to interferences by turbid or dirty water which impact on-line UV or IR light scatter instruments. Most substances absorb light, but very few fluoresce; if a substance does not fluoresce at specific wavelengths for the monitored aromatic hydrocarbon, it will not interfere.
Operator Friendly. The TD-4100 is designed for easy operation. Simple on-board software controls alarms, 4-20 mA output, diagnostics and calibration.

New Hand Held Oil in Water Meter for Produced Water and Crude Oil in Water
Turner Designs Hydrocarbon Instruments (USA) announces the next generation rugged and reliable oil field oil in water monitors for crude oil and produced water applications. The industry leader who brought you the TD-360 FastHEX and the TD-4100 XD continuous on-line oil in water monitors has just released the TD-500 TM hand held / bench top oil in water meter for crude oil. The new UV Fluorescence meter measures oil in Produced Water, Desalter Tail-Water, Crude Storage Tank Water, and in any application where crude oil may be in contact with water. It is viable for all crude oil and most gas production condensates.
It uses the same easy-to-use FastHEX procedure used on the famous TD-360 with the same high accuracy and repeatability but the new TD-500 meter is half the price of the nearest competition. The analysis method is compatible with all popular solvents including hexane, Vertrel, AK-225, Freon, xylene, and others.
The TD-500 is powered by 4 AAA batteries, weighs less than 1 pound and produces oil in water measurements in less than 4 minutes. It requires no special training and measurements correlate to EPA standard oil and grease laboratory methods. It is completely sealed meeting IP 67 Standard. It is water-proof, dust-proof and corrosion-proof and carries the CE mark.
