AQ-OWS-8
Wartsila AQUARIUS AQ-OWS-8 — 8.0 m³/h capacity. It is normally installed in the engine-room bilge-treatment area between bilge holding arrangements and the approved recirculation or discharge piping. Its primary purpose is to remove oil from contaminated bilge water before any permitted overboard discharge. Unlike ordinary settling equipment, an approved OWS is integrated with oil-content monitoring and automatic stopping or recirculation. The model designation identifies the listed configuration, but no additional meaning is inferred from the model code beyond the information supplied in the source record. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, capacities, materials and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.
