Water Cut Measurement

AMETEK Drexelbrook’s water cut measurement systems are designed for precise monitoring of water content in oil, and reliable interface detection across a wide range of hydrocarbon processing applications. Whether upstream, midstream or downstream, accurate water cut data is critical for separation, custody transfer, and regulatory compliance.

Unlike basic inline sensors or conductivity probes, Drexelbrook systems use RF admittance technology to measure the dielectric properties of the media with high sensitivity. These systems can distinguish between oil, water and emulsions, even in variable conditions, with the added benefit of temperature and density compensation to maintain precision over time.

The flagship model in this range is the Universal IV Water Cut Meter, which offers continuous measurement of water content in crude oil, condensate, or refined product pipelines. With a rugged inline or insertion sensor, the device delivers reliable 4–20 mA output and integrates easily into control systems. The addition of the Density Compensation Module further refines accuracy when fluid composition or ambient conditions fluctuate.

Designed for use in refineries, tank farms, oilfields, separators and lease automatic custody transfer (LACT) skids, Drexelbrook water cut systems provide operators with real-time visibility of process efficiency and product quality.

Key advantages include:

  • Minimal maintenance
  • Simple calibration
  • Inline and insertion mounting options
  • Repeatable accuracy in changing process conditions
  • SIL2 certification and hazardous area approvals

As AMETEK Drexelbrook’s Exclusive UK and Ireland Representative, ABLE Instruments can advise on system selection, installation and integration, and offer support services tailored to your process needs.
