The ROW (Remote Optical Watcher) is an autonomous non-contact sensor that detects oil on water and land. The system requires no routine cleaning, can be used on still or fast-moving water flows is robust and easy to install. The aluminium sensor is the most widely used version and is suitable for non-aggressive non-ATEX locations. Ideal for use in combination with our range of non-contact radar flow meters.
