The AT-LS102 Liquid Hydrocarbon Fuel Sensing Cable is a distributed leak detection cable designed for liquid hydrocarbon fuel applications. It detects the presence of fuel along the sensing cable and can work together with a suitable leak detection controller and location controller to trigger an alarm and indicate the leak position accurately.
This cable is suitable for wide-area fuel leak monitoring where leakage may occur at different points along a tank area, trench, pipeline route or double-contained equipment area. Its non-water-reactive design allows it to be used in environments where water exposure may occur without causing a water-based response.
