Spectra Scientific | Professional Grade Groundwater Monitoring
Heron H.Oil Oil Water Interface Meter
The Heron H.OIL Oil/Water Interface Probe is a slim, intrinsically safe field instrument designed to accurately detect and measure the thickness of floating or sinking product layers (LNAPL and DNAPL) in groundwater wells, tanks, and remediation sites. Featuring a rugged stainless-steel probe (5/8″ diameter) and a premium Kynar® coated tape, the meter provides reliable readings even in harsh environments. Its advanced optical sensor distinguishes between hydrocarbons and water to within 1 mm, with both audible and visual alerts for precision. Built for long-term durability, the H.OIL is certified to ATEX, IECEx, CSA, and UL standards for safe use in hazardous locations. Complete with a waterproof reel, ergonomic grip, and field accessories, the Heron Interface Probe is the trusted solution for environmental monitoring, spill response, and site remediation projects.
