Our high level / overfill alarm system is the classical product in the Omicron range. Ever since the first system was delivered in 1989 we have continuously improved and optimized the system to the robust, market leading design of today. The OAS 5 is designed to monitor all pumpable liquid cargo types as an independent alarm system as required by IMO’s “International Code for Construction and Equipment of Ships carrying Dangerous Chemicals in Bulk” (IBC Code) as well as classification societies rules for chemical, oil product and gas carriers.

Each system is specified in line with the individual customer’s needs and contains a monitoring cabinet and a sensing element, optimized for the various cargo types and able to withstand the most demanding maritime conditions.
