The Oil Water Separator Sensor (OWSS) allows you to utilize your existing Veeder-Root
Oil/Water system for your Oil Water Separator tank. The OWSS facilitates operation of the tank
Sensor Back
Sensor Description Separator by monitoring product thresholds, and will activate alarms on the TLS monitoring sys- Matrix
Sensor (OWSS) tem when tank contents exceed a predetermined threshold. The probe also provides
the conditions for these alarms and a full alarm history.

Veeder-Root Sensor Application Guide Appendix C
If you are unfamiliar with direct burial techniques, you should consider either of two Veeder-Root kits:
• Direct Burial Cable Site Preparation kit (P/N 848100-500) which contains the Direct Burial Installation Manual,
a splice kit installation manual and the 890-SL joint sealant instruction guide.
• Direct Burial Cable Site Demonstration kit (P/N 848100-502) which contains one splice kit with installation
instructions, a 890-SL joint sealant instruction guide, a 6-inch piece of 2 conductor direct burial wire.
After reviewing the contents of these kits, and after verifying local code requirements, you should be much more
informed as to the applicability of this wiring method for your site.
