ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for separating oil from water in the process of transferring oil/water mixture at a predetermined rate from a source to an output includes means for indicating when the percentage of oil exceeds a predetermined value. By pumping the accumulating oil from an oil output sump in the apparatus at a predetermined pumping rate, a predetermined fraction of the oil/water mixture separator transfer rate, and by detecting level of oil rising in the sump above said range with the oil pump operating, the system is made responsive to the proportion of oil in the mixture above a certain percentage. Any one or more of various responsive functions may thereby be initiated such as sounding an alarm, terminating an industrial process, momentarily interrupting operation of the oil/water separator, etc.
