SMART BILGE
The Rivertrace SMART BILGE 15ppm Oil Content Monitor is a marine bilge water monitoring system designed to continuously measure oil concentration in water discharged from onboard Oily Water Separator (OWS) systems. It helps vessels monitor treated bilge water and prevent discharge when oil content exceeds the permitted limit.
The SMART BILGE uses advanced Detector Array Technology within the SMART CELL to analyze oil contamination in real time. The system can detect different oil types, including Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO), diesel, and emulsions, helping provide reliable measurement under varying operating conditions without requiring recalibration between different oil types.
The SMART BILGE is designed to support marine environmental and discharge-monitoring requirements associated with IMO MEPC.107(49) and the 15ppm bilge water discharge limit. It is suitable for integration with OWS systems and related vessel environmental monitoring applications, helping operators maintain reliable monitoring and compliance procedures.

What is the SMART BILGE 15ppm Oil Content Monitor?
The SMART BILGE 15ppm Oil Content Monitor is a marine oil content meter and bilge water monitoring system designed to monitor oil concentration in water discharged from onboard oily water separator systems.
The system primarily consists of:
SMART BILGE Monitoring Module
SMART CELL Measuring Cell
Manual Cell Cleaning Device
The SMART CELL incorporates advanced detector technology to continuously analyze oil contamination in bilge water and provide reliable measurement during vessel operations.
This makes SMART BILGE suitable for integration with oily water separator (OWS) systems, overboard discharge arrangements, and marine environmental monitoring systems.
15ppm Bilge Water Monitoring & MARPOL Compliance
The 15ppm requirement is a critical environmental requirement for ships discharging oily bilge water.
The SMART BILGE 15ppm Oil Content Monitor is designed to support monitoring requirements associated with IMO MEPC.107(49) and marine oily water separator installations.
Continuous oil concentration monitoring helps vessel operators:
Monitor bilge water oil content
Prevent non-compliant discharge
Support environmental protection
Improve oily water separator operation
Maintain reliable discharge monitoring
Support inspection and compliance procedures
A correctly maintained 15ppm oil content monitor is therefore an important component of a vessel’s environmental protection system.
SMART BILGE Flexible Configuration Options
SMART BILGE+ 5ppm Version
A 5ppm alarm version is available for applications requiring additional monitoring capability, including DNV Clean Design notation applications.
Automatic Cell Cleaning
An optional pneumatic autoclean system can automatically clean the measuring cell, helping reduce manual cleaning requirements and fouling-related maintenance.
Flow Switch Protection
An optional flow switch confirms that bilge water is flowing through the measuring cell. If flow is interrupted, the system can provide protection against inappropriate overboard discharge.
GPS Connectivity
SMART BILGE+ configurations can support GPS connectivity for recording discharge-event locations and integrating relevant information with digital compliance records.
Overboard Flow Measurement
An optional overboard flow meter can record the total quantity of bilge water discharged, providing additional operational and reporting information.
SMART CONNECT Integration
Digital connectivity options can support the capture and transfer of bilge discharge information for integration with electronic Oil Record Book (E-ORB) systems.
Hazardous Area Versions
Explosion-protected cabinet configurations are available for selected hazardous-area installations, including Zone 1 and Zone 2 applications.
