TTK's FD-ODC is a digital sensing cable for the detection and location of liquid hydrocarbons and liquid insoluble in water and their vapors, along the entire length. A microcontroller is embedded in each FG-ODC sensing cable allowing the independent digital transmission to the alarm unit.
- High Sensitivity
- Very Fast Response with Light and Middle Distillates
- Sensitive to Heavy Oils and Hydrocarbon Vapors
- Leak Location on Section Length
- Re-usable and Pre-connected Cable
- Suitable for Explosive Area Service
- Insensitive to Water and Inorganic Pollutants
FG-ODC Hydrocarbon Sensing Cables Features
- Standard length (9, 22 and 39 ft) sensor sections or long line sections allowing optimized system architecture
- Microcontroller embedded in each FG-ODC sensing cable allowing the independent digital transmission to the alarm unit
- Standard length sense cable provided with the built-in plug-socket connector
- Longline provided with built-in intermediate embedded connections (for each section), plus connector at extremities on demand. Structure of the sense cable comprising a silicon sensing wire, a continuity wire, a communication wire (proprietary bus) and the power supply wires
- Protective external PE braid built on the cable
- Intrinsically safe – can be used in classified areas: Ex ia IIB T4 Ga (IECEx “Zone 0”)
FG-ODC Hydrocarbon Sensing Cables Benefits
- Reliable detection:
- Sensitive to heavy oils and vapors.
- Insensitive to water, inorganic pollutants and external loads (pressure)
- High sensitivity: examples of detection time: gasoline at 1-2 minutes (*), jet fuel at 4-10 minutes (*), diesel at 7-12 minutes (*), WTI: 20-35 minutes (*), Dilbit: 30-45 minutes (*)
- Detects and locates hydrocarbon leaks on the section length
- Can be reused, allowing leak detection tests under real conditions. The same unit FG-NET can be connected to FG-ODC sense cables and mixed with water or acids/bases sense cables at the same time
- Easy to install and remove: standard FG-ODC cables pre-connected with male / female connectors
Note (*): depending on liquid composition and leak conditions
