1.0 INSTRUMENT OVERVIEW
The Arjay Model 4100-PRO is a capacitance based monitor used for the measurement of
emulsions, interfaces, and concentrations of water in oil or other mixtures in a pipe or vessel. The
control panel receives input data from one or more Arjay PMC cards installed at the sensing
probes and, through a site calibration, displays a graphic visual profile of the % water in oil
emulsions. The probes are installed at stategic vertical and/or horizontal points in the vessel. The
quantity of probes is fully optional and pre-determined for the application. Proportional analog
outputs and relays are available for each probe. A Modbus communication is standard.
The unit senses the oil /water interface or emulsion concentration using an RF capacitance
measurement technique for high resolution capacitance measurements. The capacitance
change is proportional to the dielectric change of the fluid. The probe capacitance to %
concentration is not a linear relationship over the full concentration range and accuracies are
best at or near the calibration points. The controller allows for two points of calibration. A single
point calibration is also available for out-of-the box use although this will not provide optimum
accuracy. The % indication and corresponding outputs are ideally suited for trending and
process data collection. Best sensitivity is provided in the 0-30% Water in Oil phase.
The panels receive an input from each Arjay PMC card installed in the sensing probe junction box.
Through a site calibration, the unit displays the % oil emulsion. A graphics display of the vessel
with user determined colour shades for % concentration is provided.
The monitoring system is comprised of one main control panel, an App board panel, the PMC
cards at the probe and the sensing probes.
Optional Remote alarm panels can also be added that will display and provide audio/visual alarms.

Main Panel
The main panel is a wall mounted touch screen monitor to be installed in a general purpose (non-
hazardous) location that is accessible for set-up and observation of the display and alarms.
One relay is available for each probe input. See section 4.2 for instruction to change alarm setup.
A 4-20 mA non-isolated output per probe and Modbus RS-485 are provided. The power input at
the main panel serves the HMI, App Board Panel, PMC and probe requirements.
An optional buzzer and strobe (beacon) are available.
The sensing probe is approved for Class 1 Group C&D hazardous locations and can also be made
Intrinsically Safe for Hazardous Classified locations through the installation of an IS Barrier in the
main panel.
The main panel screen provides additional user interface menus for diagnostics, analog output,
calibration, set-up and general help information. Diagnostic Menus can be accessed for viewing at
any time but a password entry is required to make setup changes.
Remote Panel
Remote panels are available for audio/visual alarms.
App Board Panel
The App panel houses the circuitry and processors that monitor each probe. Calibration, setup
and operation functions are stored here. One App board is required per probe and provides a
Modbus communcation that is used by the Main Control Panel and User Interface to communicate
data from the probes.
Remote PMC and Sensing Probe
An Arjay PMC card is installed in the sensing probe junction box. This converts the capacitance
reading of the sensing probe into a frequency pulse for transmission to the main panel. This
unique approach eliminates any operator interface requirements at the probe. All diagnostics and
calibration is done at the main panel.
