Principle of Operation

The detector measures impedance between the electrode and the ground, and indicates oil detection when the impedance increases.
The change in impedance is converted to voltage signals. With no oil but only water around the electrode, impedance is low. When the oil film grows to approximately 7mm, the detector detects increase in impedance, and sends an alarm signal.
