BWT-OWS-4

Wärtsilä BWT-OWS-4 is listed in this library as a marine oily-water separator in the Oily Water Separator / Oily Water Separator (15 ppm) category. Equipment of this class is typically installed in the engine-room bilge treatment area, connected to bilge holding or collecting tanks and the controlled overboard discharge arrangement. Its shipboard purpose is to separate oil from machinery-space bilge water and control discharge through the vessel's approved monitoring and stopping arrangement. The exact piping, electrical, control, foundation, and accessory arrangement depends on the vessel and the supplied configuration. No additional verified rating, capacity, weight, dimension, or operating limit is provided in the source entry. Where adjacent models in the same product family differ in rating, size, materials, control options, certification, or accessories, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact model-specific differences.

Common failures & inspection points

Coalescer, filter, or separation-stage fouling from sludge and solids raises pressure drop, reduces throughput, or causes poor separation
Oil-content monitor contamination, calibration drift, or sampling-line blockage causes unstable readings, alarms, or diversion despite apparently clean water
Valve, solenoid, or automatic stopping-device faults from sticking, air failure, or electrical problems prevent correct recirculation or overboard control
Feed-pump wear, air ingress, or suction blockage causes low flow, loss of prime, cavitation, or inability to process the bilge tank
Excessive emulsified oil, detergents, chemicals, or unsuitable bilge composition overwhelms separation performance and results in persistently high oil-content readings

Service & Maintenance

Inspect separation stages, filters or coalescers, sludge drains, pump condition, sample lines, oil-content monitor cleanliness and calibration status, automatic stopping/diverting function, seals, valves, and record-book consistency. Testing and discharge operations must follow MARPOL, vessel procedures, and the approved equipment documentation.
