Description
The Alfa Laval EPC 41 (SattControl) PCB Module (Part Number 3183050092) is a specialized control electronics board used in the EPC 41 series of marine fuel oil separator controllers. This module serves as the primary processing unit for the centrifuge system, managing the automatic sludge discharge cycles, monitoring oil pressure/temperature, and ensuring the efficient separation of fuel oils or lube oils. As a core component of the separator automation, it interfaces with various sensors and solenoid valves to maintain high-quality oil output and process safety.

Important Implementation Note: The 3183050092 module often stores site-specific parameters regarding the separator type (e.g., S300 vs. S800) and fuel density settings. If replacing this PCB, ensure the EPROM (firmware chip) or the configuration software parameters are transferred from the old card to the new one. Failure to do so may result in the centrifuge discharging at the wrong intervals or failing to detect water in the oil, potentially damaging the downstream engine.
