A World of Safety Equipment At Your Fingertips
 

OdaLogMeasurement & Control Solutions was founded in 1992 to source air monitoring equipment from around the World and to concentrate on supplying that equipment for Occupational Health and Safety applications. The company has built up a comprehensive product portfolio of monitoring equipment which includes sound level meters, noise dosimeters, heat stress monitors, dust samplers, and specialised air samplers to detect vapours and hazardous gases.

With the employment of key technical staff in the mid to late 1990's, the company addressed a niche market opportunity to design an electronic measuring instrument for odor control in the wastewater industry. Ensuing research and product development culminated in the January 2000 launch of an innovative environmental product, the OdaLog H2S Gas Logger..

The initial OdaLog Logger (see image opposite) was designed specifically to record hydrogen sulphide gas emissions to address environmental odour control concerns associated with urban wastewater collection systems and was quickly recognised as the most advanced gas logging device available in terms of its application for sulfide odor source monitoring in the Australian wastewater industry.

From App-Tek Safety we now offer a wide range of products to meet your workplace safety requirements.

The accuracy and reliability of these instruments is critical to our customers’ safety and we believe that our customers should have absolute confidence in their equipment.

The OdaLog has been specifically designed for the Wastewater Industry, primarily for locating at or close to the source of Hydrogen Sulphide emissions such as within sewerage pumping stations and receiving manholes.

Its purpose is to log levels of H2S in the range 0-200 ppm for later downloading of data in tabular or graphical form to highlight significant variations in H2S levels over time.

Due to the nature of the environment in which the instrument has to operate, it has been designed to be splash resistant, robust, small, and able to log data for extended periods of time.

The following is detailed information on this globally recognised product.

OdaLog Logger

The OdaLog Logger has a proven reputation in the Wastewater Industry worldwide as a tool to record and help control levels of H2S gas in sewerage systems and treatment plants. The OdaLog is splash resistant, robust, small, and able to log data for extended periods of time.

The OdaLog has been specifically designed to withstand harsh environments typically found in the Wastewater Industry and features double O-ring seals to protect the electronics from water and dirt ingress. The OdaLog is primarily used by locating it at, or close to, the source of Hydrogen Sulphide emissions such as within sewerage pumping stations and receiving manholes. Its purpose is to log levels of H2S in the range 0-200 ppm over an appropriate time period (for example, seven days).

The OdaLog connects to a computer via the infrared link to download and display the logged data. The OdaLog PC software offers a rich set of features to display and report data with minimal effort. The software can represent data in tabular or graphical form to highlight variations in H2S levels over time.

OdaLog Low Range 0.01-2.00ppm Logger

The OdaLog Low Range H2S Logger is a high sensitivity, portable, convenient, and weather resistant instrument designed to assist in H2S odour management activities. It accurately measures concentrations of H2S much lower than the standard range of OdaLog H2S Loggers. With a range of 0.01 to 2.00ppm, the OdaLog Low Range H2S Logger allows reliable measurement of H2S based odours at plant fence-lines, scrubber outlets, land fill sites, and residential locations where odour complaints are frequently reported.

Typically the OdaLog Low Range H2S Logger may be placed at the outlet of a scrubber for performance tracking or several units may be mounted on a fence line or plant perimeter for the purpose of measuring concentrations of H2S leaving a facility and entering adjoining properties.

Data can be logged at sampling intervals of between 10 minutes and one hour. The recorded H2S data can be downloaded to a computer using the standard OdaLog infrared link and OdaLog software.

An internal battery (1 x standard C size Alkaline cell) will operate the built-in sampling system continuously for at least seven days and a separate internal Lithium cell powers the main processor functions for at least two months.

App-Tek OdaTrakOdaTrak 4 to 20mA Adapter

The OdaTrak™ 4 to 20mA adapter was primarily designed as an interface between the OdaLog gas Logger and industrial control systems for the purpose of continuous, real-time optimisation of chemical dosing odor control systems and connection to telemetry and other systems.

The OdaTrak™ 4 to 20mA adapter reads gas concentration data sent from an OdaLog gas Logger over a fiber optic cable, deciphers the data, and then outputs the corresponding 4-20mA loop analogue signal. This allows the OdaLog unit to be interfaced to control and telemetry systems providing real-time gas data. This signal could be used to optimise chemical dosing, trigger alarms, control ventilation fans, or interface to telemetry systems etc. The OdaLog Logger can still be used as a standalone data-logging instrument if required.

Special features of the OdaTrak™ 4 to 20mA adapter include:

Fault detection - The OdaTrak™ has the ability to detect for a loss of OdaLog data over a predetermined period of time and will output a fault state on the 4 to 20mA line when that time limit has expired. The fault current is 3.5mA.

Suitable for harsh environments - The fibre optic cable connector features an O-ring seal to prevent the ingress of dust and liquid, and the OdaTrak unit is fully sealed.

Quick and easy installation - The OdaTrak has an M20 thread machined as part of the housing. Simply mount through a 20mm hole or threaded junction box entry.

Data logging - All of the usual OdaLog functions, including data logging, are available while the 4 to 20mA link is active.

The OdaTrak™ System typically includes:
• One to three OdaLog® gas Loggers
• One fibre optic cable used to connect the OdaLog fibre optic output to the input of the OdaTrak™ 4 to 20mA adapter.
• One OdaTrak™ 4 to 20mA adapter

For continuous monitoring in very humid environments (typical of wastewater applications), the OdaTrak™ System requires three OdaLogs with each OdaLog in service no longer than one week whilst the other two OdaLogs are stored in fresh air. This allows the sensor in each OdaLog to recover from the high relative humidity and gas levels present in most wastewater applications. Alternatively, two OdaLogs can be used in combination with a Sensor Conditioning Kit. Place the recovering OdaLog into the Sensor Conditioning Kit for a few days while resting to speed sensor recovery from two weeks to one week enabling continuous monitoring to be achieved with two OdaLogs instead of three.

App-Tek Sensor Conditioning KitThe Sensor Conditioning Kit uses a replaceable drying media to maintain a very low humidity atmosphere inside the container. This significantly speeds up the removal of excess water from the gas sensor. Typically this allows two OdaLog units to be used for continuous monitoring applications in humid environments instead of three. A digital humidity meter in the lid of the Sensor Conditioning Kit continuously monitors the condition of the internal atmosphere and can be used to determine when replacement of the drying media is required.
