1. Introduction
The BilgMon488 bilge alarm has been designed specifically for use in conjunction with 15 ppm oil-water
separator units. BilgMon488 performance meets the requirements of the IMO (International Maritime
Organization) specifications for 15 ppm bilge alarms contained in resolution MEPC. 107(49).

BilgMon488 is equipped with 2 adjustable alarms that triggered when the oil-content of the processed
sample exceeds the set limit (1-15 ppm, works-adjusted to 15ppm).
Alarm outputs consist of relays and indicator LEDs. Additionally a 0(4) – 20mA current output signal
(corresponding to 0 -30 ppm) is available to enable remote surveillance and recording of oil contents.

2. Construction
BilgMon488 consists of two main parts, the MASTER unit (housing with LCD, buttons and LEDs) and the
SENSOR unit (housing with pipe fittings).

The MASTER unit contains all the electronics used for control and data storage of the bilge alarm. Mounted
in the lid of the MASTER housing is the main memory containing the bilge alarm log.

The SENSOR unit contains electronics for measuring the sample stream. The SENSOR unit also holds the
measurement calibration data. Communication with the MASTER unit is done wireless hence the SENSOR
unit is hermetically sealed and shall not be opened.

3. Operation
Optical sensors monitors the amount of light scattered and absorbed by the oil droplets in the sample stream.
Senor signals are processed by a microprocessor to produce a corresponding oil content (ppm) output. The
output is communicated to the MASTER unit where it is processed. The MASTER unit takes action, such
as alarm activation, logging etc., depending on the oil content and separator signal.

Settings that affect the behavior of the bilge alarm are described in detail in the “Operating Instructions”
section.

Zero point calibration can be re-adjusted on site whereas full sensor calibration according to
IMO-requirements is performed by manufacturer.

Tube arrangement

Note:
1. Detail information for installation is described in the drawing for working.
Please refer to the drawing prior to the installation.
2. If the fresh water leaks from the anti-siphon tube while supplying the fresh water to the bilge alarm,
please reduce the flow rate of fresh water by slightly closing the fresh water supply valve manually.

Electrical connections

Note:
1. ALARM 1 is to be used for VALVE CONTROL.
ALARM 2 is to be used for ANNUNCIATION.
2. The contacts of ALARM 1 and 2 relays shows an alarm condition or de-energized.
3. Separator status (No.10 – No.11) is to be connected with the bilge pump starter.
(ON-CONTACT at bilge pump running)
4. "F" shows the self-resetting fuse.
It stops the flow of current due to temperature increasing when it detects overcurrent condition.
Resistance will reset automatically when the fault is removed and temperature returns to a safe level.

6. Operating Instructions
The menu system of BilgMon488 is organized into top menus:
1. Main menu.
2. Log menu.
3. Cleaning test menu.
4. Settings menu.
Some of the menus also contain submenus for displaying or setting the properties of the apparatus.

Navigating the menus is done by using the 4 push buttons located beneath the LCD display. In this
document they are referred to as (from left to right) MINUS, PLUS, ABORT and ENTER. LONG_ENTER
means keeping the ENTER button pressed for more than 2 seconds. By using the above mentioned buttons
the user is able to navigate menus, enter values and activate different functions of the BilgMon488.

Main menu
After start the display will show the main menu. The apparatus can only be activated when the display
shows the main menu hence the user has to be sure that the apparatus is left in the main menu state after
performing settings, cleaning, tests etc. Contrast of the LCD screen can be adjusted by holding the ABORT
button while adjusting with PLUS and MINUS when in main menu. Note that the apparatus will return to
the main menu after 5 min of no activity (no pressed buttons). The bilge alarm can only be activated when
in main menu. In all other menus the overboard valve will be closed.

Info menu
The submenus of info menu show information about the master unit (software version and part ID) and the
sensor unit (part ID, SW version, sensor birth date and date of last calibration check). Note that entering the
submenus also puts the apparatus in an alarm state.

Log menu
The log menu contains functionality for searching and stepping the logged IMO requited data.

Cleaning & test menu

The cleaning & test menu and its submenus provide measures for calibrating, cleaning and testing the
apparatus.

Settings menu
Settings menu contains adjustable settings of parameters such as ppm-limits, alarm/valve time delays, auto
flush settings, clock and current output (curro) mode.

The following table shows the different menus and submenus of the BilgMon488 and detailed instructions
on how to operate them.

12. Real Time Clock (RTC)
The timekeeping mechanism in BilgMon488 is referred to as the Real Time Clock (RTC). The RTC is
essentially a crystal oscillator backed up by at battery and a capacitor. The RTC keeps track of the UTC
time and date and is essential for keeping the log of BilgMon488 correct.

12.1 LOCAL TIME

In the settings of each BilgMon488 there is a possibility to adjust the displayed time. This affects how time
and date are displayed on the display (main menu, log items etc.) This setting is stored and used as an offset
to the internal time (RTC-time).
The internal UTC time and date can be checked in one of the cycles of the master info menu.

12.2 BATTERY REPLACEMENT

The RTC backup battery is coupled in parallel with a backup capacitor. This means that the BilgMon488
can keep its RTC running for a couple of hours without the battery present.
The RTC battery (type CR1225 or BR1225) is located on the backside of the master unit lid.

Battery replacement procedure:

1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. Open the lid of the master unit (loosen 4 screws in the corners of the lid).
3. Push on the metal clip (holding the battery) and pull the battery out of the socket.
4. Replace with new battery (type CR1225 or BR1225) as soon as possible (with a couple of hours).

18
12.3 RTC MALFUNCTION
In the event of the RTC stopping the following message will appear:

ERROR: ERROR:

When pressing the user enters the RTC recovery menu.

12.3.1 Set UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) time

If the battery voltage is to low (< 2.5V) the following warning will be shown:

Battery low : 0.5V

Replace battery !

Follow the battery replacement procedure (see 12.2).

When the battery is replaced and the voltage has increased to above 2.5V (might take a couple of minutes if
the backup capacitor is exhausted) the following menu will appear:

Set UTC time

In this test, the automatic 3-way valve shall be automatically operated. During this test, in order to prevent actual
discharge through the automatic 3 way valve, a manual 3 way valve of the overboard discharge line should be changed
to return to the bilge tank. This test must be carried out in condition where oily water is never discharged into the sea.
By holding the ENTER button while indicating main menu on the display, the bilge alarm can simulate the oil content
(ppm) values and the running signal of bilge separator. In the simulation mode, the following display is shown.

Simulation SPL Simulation SPL

Pressing the MINUS button decreases the PPM value by 0.1 ppm. Pressing the PLUS button increases the PPM value
by 0.1 ppm.
Pressing the ABORT button toggles the simulated bilge separator input (same as the running signal).
(SEP_OFF = bilge separator off, SEP_ON = bilge separator on).
※
When PPM value is set at bigger than 15 ppm in the position of SEP_ON, the alarm will be activated.

※：If the alarm point of ALARM is changed, the alarm will be generated when the PPM value is set at bigger than
