The Oilcon MK6M (Oil Discharge Monitor) was developed by VAF Instruments for continuous on-line monitoring of discharge water during de-ballasting operations.
The MK6M is more reliable and more accurate than any other monitoring & control system. It is suitable for all ballast and slop water discharges. The system is based on the unique multiple scattering principle for which VAF Instruments has obtained world-wide patents. The technique has resulted in unprecedented levels of accuracy, reliability and cost efficiency of installation and ownership.
The system fully complies with MARPOL requirements and is built according to IMO Resolution MEPC 108 (49).
