The Boesch Oil Sentinel is used in elevator sump pits, transformer vaults and industrial sumps to remove water while retaining oil and other hydrocarbons. There is no need for an oil-water separator. The Boesch Oil Sentinel is a UL listed system.
​
KEY FEATURES:

• ONE SENSOR. One preset level sensor for easy installation.
• REMOTE ALARM. A remote alarm is included with the Oil Sentinel. Includes auxiliary contacts for High Oil, High Water and Pump Overload (on overload models).
• MULTIPLE INDICATOR LIGHTS. Power On, Pump Run, High Water, High Oil and Pump Overload (on overload models).
• ASME A17.1 COMPLIANT. Works with Auto dialers or BAS

BUILDING CODE - ASME 17.1 (2.2.2.5):
"The drain or sump pump discharge shall be into the sanitary or storm drainage system through an indirect waste connection.

Boesch Oil Sentinel Datasheet

​OIL SENTINEL OPERATION:
Water and oil fill the elevator sump pit. As the sump is filling, the oil will float on top of the water. This layer of oil will not be pumped from the tank. The water underneath the oil will be pumped out through the discharge pipe to the sewer or other proper disposal area.

​
​1. WATER RISES & PUMP TURNS ON.
When the water reaches probe (#2) the system will turn on and pump the water out of the sump.​

​​
​2. WATER IS REMOVED/OIL CONTAINED.
​As the water is being pumped from the sump pit, the oil will remain floating on top of the water. THE OIL WILL NOT BE PUMPED INTO THE SANITARY SEWER.

​
​3. PUMP TURNS OFF.
When the water is pumped below probe (#1) the pump will turn off.
