SECTION 2 UNIT OVERVIEW


2.1 OVERVIEW OF UNIT HARDWARE
The following section provides an overview of the HD-1000 hardware. The HD-1000 is a portable handheld unit with a
detachable probe for insertion into a light tight sampling vessel as shown below in Figure 1. The main unit is an encased
touch screen display (1) with a detachable probe. The probe is a stainless steel jacketed bifurcated fibre assembly,
where one leg carries input signal and the other output signal, which converges into the probe ferrule. Each leg
attaches to the ports on the right hand side of the unit as shown in Figure 1 (and #2 in Figure 2). The calibration
chamber (3) can be used for both calibration and as a sampling vessel. It is used to provide a light tight environment
that enables the probe to accurately measure oil droplets fluorescing in water.

2.2 OVERVIEW OF MEASUREMENT PRINCIPLE


The HD-1000 uses laser induced fluorescence to quantify the proportion of hydrocarbons in the water. Fluorescence is
proportional to the concentration of hydrocarbons in water, in particular residual oil content found in process water.
Therefore fluorescence will increase, or decrease, with oil concentrations in water and is translated into quantifiable
readings; such as PPM or PPB. Each type of oil has a unique spectral shape which will only differ in amplitude relative to
concentration as shown in Figure 6. In other words, the shape of the spectra peak is unique to each oil type and as
concentration decreases the peak decreases in height. Knowing the spectra shape for 2 concentrations, for example 100
and 0 PPM, will typically provide sufficient information to measure the oil content in water.

Figure 6: Example of spectra obtained by the HD-1000 for one oil type at 4 different concentrations.

The scaling function enables comparison of up to 8 spectral graphs. Selecting the Scale settings

icon will open

the available scaling options: Normalize to Highest Value and Reset To Original, as shown below in Figure 30.

Figure 30: Scaling options.

From the list of options select Normalize to Highest Value. This will scale all the comparison spectra to relative to the
spectra with the highest value.

This adjustment enables users to compare spectral measurements for different

concentrations of the same oil or to compare spectral measurements between different oil types. Figure 31 A below is
an example comparing 5 spectra taken for 1 oil type.

The fluorescence, or signal intensity, varies with PPM

concentration accordingly. However when the spectra are Normalized to Highest Value the highest value of all spectra
are made equal and fit into approximately the same curve shape (Figure 31 B).

When comparing different oil types

normalizing to the highest value will highlight any differences in the spectral curve, simplifying the comparison.

3.2.4 Oil Calibration


Oil type files contain all the calibration parameters required for the specific oil type being analyzed. The HD-1000 is
supplied with generic default oil type files for calibration however these may not be suitable for the type of oil being
analyzed. Calibrations may require simple adjustment, gain and/or PPM offsets, or a new calibration may be required.
When analysis of a new oil type is required the HD-1000 must be calibrated with at least 2 different concentrations of
the new oil. This calibration will generate the oil type file required for the unit to recognize and accurately measure that
oil type. Calibration files can be uploaded for file sharing between units or facilities. Multiple oil type files can be stored
on the system each displayed with basic reference information for each.
To access calibration options press the Oil Calibration

button from the analyzer main menu. Oil

type calibration files can be downloaded or a new one can be generated and uploaded. The following sections describe
how to download files, how to generate new files and upload files. To perform a calibration see Appendix 1 - Calibration

sample + 100mls of clean water).
9. Pour the prepared new unknown sample into the calibration chamber and mix well.
10. Follow steps 5 through 7 to obtain the next reading.
NOTE: If the displayed ppm of the second unknown is greater than half the ppm of the first unknown
measured, the calibration curve is proved to be non-linear and conducting a calibration linear
range check or constructing a new calibration curve is recommended.

A1.5 CORRELATION TO AN A LTERNATE METHOD


If the HD-1000 measured concentration is greater, or less, than the alternate method (i.e. laboratory analysis) ppm
reading, adjust the HD-1000 instrument gain factor to match the difference.
NOTE: To adjust instrument gain, go to the oil calibration and the constructed oil curve file should be
visible in the oil calibration list. Select the file, press the settings icon
the analyzer reads the required concentration.

APPENDIX 2 SAMPLE PREPARATION AND MEASUREMENT


A2.1 PURPOSE AND SCOPE
Procedure for analysing representative oil in water samples using the HD-1000. Samples should be obtained using the
applicable corporate procedures.
Advanced Sensors recommend samples are taken using clean GLASS bottles only, preferably using brown glass. Bottles
shall be 200ml or higher volume and sealed to prevent leakage. DO NOT use plastic bottles at any time. A label
containing the following information should be affixed to the sample bottle for traceability:
1.

Location from which the sample was taken

2.

The date and time (start and finish times) the sample was taken

3.

Site and/or facility name

4.

Name of the person taking the sample


NOTE: If the produced water sample is to be transported to a different location from the sampling point,
ensure the sample is stored in a light tight container and clearly labeled.

A2.2 SAMPLE MEASUREMENT


Sample measurement is simple and easy to perform with no need for solvent preparation. Follow these simple steps to
determine the content of oil in water using the HD-1000:
1.

Rinse the entire probe ferrule in a beaker of clean water and dry with an optical tissue. Do not detach the
probe from the analyzer unit.

2.

Ensure the produced calibration curve is loaded prior to measurement (*see Section 3.2.4 Oil Calibration).

3.

Press the Quick Measurement button from the main menu to open the measurement menu.

4.

Mix the sample well in the glass bottle then add to the supplied calibration chamber until it is - full.

5.

Press the

6.

Check the displayed ppm reading. This result is the concentration of oil in the sample as determined from
calibration curve for that oil type.

button to measure the unknown sample concentration.

NOTE: If the oil has an API gravity greater than 31, has stratified and/or hard to achieve a good mix
through manual mixing, the addition of surfactant (Advanced Sensors recommend Loctite
7840 / Loctite Natural Blue Cleaner) may be required. When adding surfactant follow the
recommended volumes per PPM as indicated in the calibration procedure.

SOFTWARE RELEASE NOTE
HD-1000 SOFTWARE UPDATE REVISION 1.3.3
The HD-1000 portable oil in water analyzer software will be upgraded to Version 1.3.3. This new
version of software will address a number of issues aimed at overall product improvement of the
user interface and system.
The following improvements affecting the User Interface include:
1. PPM value displays:
a.
b.
c.
d.

to one decimal place for values above 100 PPM


to two decimal places for values above 10 PPM
to two decimal places for values above 1PPM
to three decimal places for values below 1 PPM

2. Calculated PPM estimation is now displayed on the measurement


screen when the maximum set PPM threshold is exceeded. This value
is indicative of the measured PPM when it exceeds the threshold value.

3. New Integration Time features which make the unit more sensitive in applications with low
fluorescence signal:
a. Configuration of the Integration Time is now an option
during Calibration.
b. Integration time is configurable up to 5000 ms and
recorded in the oil type file for traceability and reference.
4. New Calibration features:
a. Default Calibration File is now the last selected oil type file from the options menu.
b. Users can select to take 3, 5 or 10 replicates of a given PPM standard then the
average value used. The number of replicates taken is recorded in the oil type file
for traceability and reference.
c. Calibration points can be re-measured or removed if the data point is significantly
out of line with the expected value. This applies only to mid-point calibration
samples; high and low endpoints are fixed.
d. Calibration Data Points record includes fields which display values for both
Integrated Fluorescence and Fluorescence Peak Points.
