Fuel Oil Sensing Cable

Model:P-LFP6000

P-LFP6000 Fuel Oil Sensing Cable detects the presence of liquid hydrocarbon fuels at any point along its length,yet does not react to the presence of water.
Installed with a Prosino alarm and locating module, the cable senses the liquid,triggers an alarm,and pinpoints the location of the leak within one meter.

Main features:

Fast typicalresponse time to hydrocarbon fluid
Outdoor application friendly-Insensible to water
Re-usable
Pre-connected

Product Overview

This Fuel Oil Sensing Cable provides distributed leak detection and location for a wide range of applications. The cable is available in a variety of lengths to provide as much coverage as needed.

Cable can be in bulk form, cut to length in the field and joined using connector kits, or it can be obtained in standard lengths with connectors attached in the factory
These modular sensing cables may be connected in series to provide distributed monitoring for trenches, subfloors and double-containment piping
Or used individually for double-containment tanks, sumps, and small areas
P-LFP6000 zone sensing cable—which comes with a factory-installed,
Heat-shrink end termination—is also available for small area coverage.
