Page 7: Introduction
Introduction to EASZ-1 The EASZ-1 is an Online Water in Oil Monitor which has been designed to fit in a piping system and to measure the water content in an oil when there is a positive flow. The measurement works correctly only with a positive flow, unlike a laboratory instrument that will measure the water content of oil in a static condition. -

Page 10: Basic Measurement Principle
Measuring Worldwide Basic Principle of Measurement The EASZ-1 measurement units are in in picofarads (pF) A picofarad is a unit used to measure capacitance i.e., the ability of a system to store an electric charge. Measurement of Capacitance between 2 plates Instead of measuring the capacitance between 2 plates, the EASZ-1 is measuring the capacitance between 2 pipes. -
Page 11: Typical Measurement Scenario
(1-inch EASZ-1) The EASZ-1 is not limited to measuring only water in oil. It is a device that can measure the concentration of one type of liquid in another. However, there must be a very big difference in the dielectric constant of the liquids in order for a meaningful measurement. -
Page 12: Standard Range Vs High Range
High Range EASZ-1’s are manufactured as a “rod within a pipe”, and can be recognized by looking inside the sensor. If the inner sensor is a solid rod, you’re looking at a High Range EASZ-1 which is capable of measuring all water content in higher ranges. -
Page 13: Instrument Overview
Refer to “as built” drawings on each order. HANDLING The EASZ-1 is supplied as a complete working instrument and its main parts should never be dismantled for any reason. In order to protect the instrument from damage, the operators who are installing the monitor should avoid doing the following: •... -
Page 14: Wiring
Measuring Worldwide WIRING The EESIFLO EASZ-1 Water in Oil Monitor is a loop powered device. It runs on the power in the 4- 20mA current loop. For hazardous area applications, it is important to make sure whatever device is powering the loop is appropriate for the hazardous area in question. -
Page 15: Cable Paths
INTRINSIC SAFE ISOLATOR–CONNECTION (Pepperl+Fuchs) We supply the P&F model KFDO-SCS-EX1.55 for these applications. If you wish to use other brands or model numbers, you will need to check with EESIFLO on their suitability. INTRINSIC SAFE LOCAL DISPLAY AND OUTPUT (Beka & Associates) A Beka display is often supplied as a local indicator for hazardous areas using the same loop power. -
Page 16: Grounding/ Isolation
Always protect the EASZ-1 from electrical damage or erroneous readings by making sure you understand good electrical practices. If you are using the EASZ-1 in a non-hazardous application, the power/signal loop should be galvanically isolated unless the EASZ-1 and remote device are sharing the same local ground. -
Page 17: Static Electricity
Measuring Worldwide STATIC ELECTRICITY Warning: Static electricity can damage the PCB. If you are configuring the EASZ-1 in a lab or company workspace, always make sure that there is no chance of static being transferred to the board. Static electricity will damage the board. -
Page 18: Installation
MOUNTING The EASZ-1 can be mounted in either a horizontal or vertical position. It is important to ensure that the pipe is always full of liquid. It is not advisable to mount it in a vertical position where the direction of flow is from up to down. -
Page 19: Optional: Static Mixer, Thermal Insulation Box And Sunshade
To improve the level of accuracy, it may be necessary to ensure that effective mixing occurs just prior to entering the EASZ-1. To maximize the accuracy of the EASZ-1, an inline static mixer will ensure the water and oil are mixed into a homogeneous solution prior to passing through the EASZ-1. -
Page 20: The Effects Of Air, Gas And Chemicals
EASZ-1. The EASZ-1 assumes that it is always full of fluid. If it is partially filled with air or gas, the water content readings will be reduced because the Dielectric Constant of the Air/Gas is much closer to oil than water. -
Page 21: Sampling Point
The sampling point can either be a standard “Tee” piece (threaded or flanged) added to the pipe work by the customer between the mixer (if installed) and the unit, or The sampling point can be ordered from EESIFLO factory fitted as a part of the sensor pipe and mixer (if required) EESIFLO®... -
Page 22: Safely Connecting To The Easz-1
To connect the unit correctly follow the instructions: Before powering up the unit, make sure that any remote device that the EASZ-1 is connected to is galvanically isolated (see grounding/ isolation section.) Failure to properly protect the EASZ-1 electronics can result in catastrophic board failure. -
Page 23: Rs-232 Communication
2. Make sure that there is no chance of static electricity transfer from personnel to the card. If the EASZ-1 is being tested in a lab or a workshop, ensure that steps have been taken to ground the electronics and prevent any discharge of static electricity to the electronics due to handling. - Page 24 7.
