DM-OWS-500

Damen Marine DM-OWS-500 is a 15 ppm oily water separator in the supplied category 'Oily Water Separator / Oily Water Separator (15 ppm)'. It is normally installed in the engine room bilge-treatment area with connections to bilge holding tanks, discharge lines and the oil-content monitoring system. It is intended to separate oil from bilge water before any permitted overboard discharge and to support compliance with the vessel's pollution-prevention procedures. Compared with neighbouring entries in the same series, the supplied data identifies this variant by the source-listed characteristic 0.5 m³/h capacity. In service it interfaces with bilge pumps and tanks, separation stages, oil-content monitor, automatic stopping or recirculation valves, sampling line and control panel. Model-specific limits, settings, dimensions and acceptance criteria that are not stated in the supplied data should be taken from the manufacturer documentation.

Common failures & inspection points

●Coalescer or filter fouling reduces separation efficiency, noticed as rising differential pressure, reduced flow or high oil-content readings
●Oil-content monitor contamination or calibration drift gives unstable or incorrect ppm readings and can prevent discharge
●Incorrect valve position or failed automatic diversion causes recirculation faults or discharge interlock alarms
●Air ingress, poor priming or pump wear reduces throughput and produces unstable flow
●Sludge accumulation or blocked drains degrades separator performance and causes frequent cleaning requirements

Service & Maintenance

Inspect separator internals accessible for routine maintenance, coalescer or filter condition, pumps, valves, drains, sample lines and evidence of unauthorized bypassing. Function-test the oil-content monitor, alarms and automatic stopping or recirculation arrangement using the approved onboard procedure. Check records and seals required by the vessel's pollution-prevention management; use manufacturer documentation for exact test and replacement criteria.
