Product Code: PP/14507/PD/SET

The Darcy Solar-Powered Separator Alarm is a smart, efficient solution for monitoring oil/water separators—ideal for both new build sites and retrofit installations where mains power is unavailable or difficult to access. By removing the need for ducting and long cable runs, installation is fast, non-intrusive, and cost-effective.

Powered by solar energy with battery backup, this system ensures continuous, autonomous monitoring of up to two separator tanks, supporting up to six probes (three per tank) for accurate detection of oil, silt, and high liquid levels.

Advanced Communication & Monitoring

Equipped with GSM technology, the control unit offers two-way communication and can send SMS alerts to up to 8 designated users. Whether it’s a change in probe condition or a low battery warning, users are instantly notified—minimising risk and enabling swift corrective action.

A liquid crystal display provides on-site status visibility, and an optional flashing beacon can be fitted for added visual alerts. The unit automatically checks the status of all probes and batteries every 15 minutes, with the option for a manual probe check at any time via a push-button on the front panel.
