About Us
Turner Designs Hydrocarbon Instruments, Inc. is the worldwide leader in the application of field portable, laboratory and on-line continuous process monitors for measuring and monitoring hydrocarbons in water. We are in the exclusive business of making laboratory, field portable and on-line instruments based in UV fluorescence technology.
Our staff of experts understands customer needs, problems and applications for monitoring petroleum hydrocarbons in water. Customer satisfaction is our first priority.
Turner Designs Hydrocarbon Instruments is unparalleled in fluorescence (UVF) expertise for the measurement of hydrocarbons in water and soil. Our customers enjoy the benefits of our worldwide exposure, product development and distribution network. We have more UVF instruments in service for oil in water measurement than all UVF competition combined.
We are experts in oil (hydrocarbon) in water monitors for concentrations ranging from ug/L (ppb) to mg/L (ppm). Detection limits for crude oil, gasoline, diesel fuel, jet fuel and fuel oils have been demonstrated at 10 ppb in distilled water. As an example, a large number of our installed systems routinely monitor drinking water for gasoline and diesel fuel at 30 ppb in river water. We routinely customize our systems to meet highly specialized monitoring projects especially in the offshore oil production market.
We maintain an in-house laboratory that is specifically utilized for application confirmation and method development. We utilize in-house instrumentation and expertise to validate instrument performance for customer applications prior to manufacturing and delivering systems worldwide. Essentially, all customer applications are validated prior to instrument shipment to qualify the effectiveness of our products to meet customer needs. This speeds installation start-up and reinforces successful customer operation of our instruments.
We employ highly skilled field support personnel with field service available in all areas of the world. A worldwide support network allows customers to receive regional support for service and applications needs. Service personnel are deployed from regional support centers based in North America, Asia, Europe, West Africa and the Middle East.

FEATURED APPLICATIONS
Monitoring Phenol in Water - Monitoring & Testing - Water MonitoringThe Situation: A plant located in the eastern United States manufactures phenolic resin for applications in plastics molding. This plant uses well water for cooling its reaction process and then discharges the water into a local creek. A leak in the reactor and associated cooling equipment would cause phenol and phenolic compounds to contaminate the cooling water.The local regulators frequently inspected the plants discharge to ensure compliance with the discharge permit. The Solution: The company chose the Turner Designs Hydrocarbon Instruments TD-4100 as a replacement for the Technicon analyzer. Phenol is an extremely fluorescent compound, therefore the fluorescence-technology TD-4100 was capable of detecting phenol much lower then the required alarm limit of 150 ppb. Thus, the TD-4100 prevented a costly discharge violation by allowing the company to detect a small leak before a catastrophic failure. » Read more » Contact now / Request quote |
Monitoring Leaks from Heat Exchanger - Paper Plant - Monitoring & Testing - Water MonitoringThe Situation A Paper plant uses 500 GPM filtered pond water for cooling lubricating oil in their paper line. The now warmer water is sewer to an on-site pond. Because the water is used to cool lubricating oil, the plant could not reuse the water in their pulping process for fear of possible oil contamination to the paper pulp. The Paper plant looked for a leak detector to quickly indicate when the lube oil coolers leak. The Solution With a TD-1000C and a TD-500D Oil in Water Monitors, the customer can quickly detect a leaking heat exchanger. When no oil is present the water can be re-used in the pulping process with a reduced energy cost. The TD-1000C provides continuous on line detection of lube oil. The TD-500D is used for field analysis of water samples to determine which lube oil cooler is leaking. “In the paper industry, saving water and energy is key to profitability. The TD-1000C and TD-500D are allowing us to do just that” said Charles Merris, Senior Energy Project Engineer. » Read more » Contact now / Request quote |
