Fuel Leak Detection Sensor
Generators are deployed to provide backup power to facilities like server rooms, data centers, cel sites or remote telecom rooms. The generators are mostly powered through fossile fuels.
The IP, Modbus TCP, Modbus RTU (RS-485) & SNMP based fuel leak cable can detected following fuel types:
The IP, Modbus TCP, Modbus RTU (RS-485) & SNMP based fuel leak cable can detected following fuel types:
| Fuel type | Typical response time at 20°C (68°F) |
| #1 diesel fuel | 60 minutes |
| #2 diesel fuel | 120 minutes |
| Gasoline | 12 minutes |
| JP5 jet fuel | 70 minutes |
| JP8 jet fuel | 50 minutes |
| Jet-A jet fuel | 50 minutes |
We offer a low cost sensor for monitoring fuel leaks 24x7 from fuel tanks for generators or fuel pipes.
The default cable length is 14ft / 4.5m and can be extended to 100ft / 30 m. The fuel leak sensing cable is designed for single use only.
The fuel leak sensing cable may be used in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D Hazardous Locations. If wiring from module meets requirements for intrinsic safety, sensing cable may be used in Class I, Division 1, Groups A, B, C, D Hazardous Locations (Zone 0 or Zone 1 in Europe).
The fuel leak cable has following certifications:
No PC or Software Required
The InfraSensing sensors connect to the base unit (BASE-5). The base unit is a standalone device that has its own IP address in your network. On its own it will monitor the sensor and trigger alerts via email, SNMP or optional SMS when needed.
There is no software or PC required for the sensors to run.
With our optional Monitoring Software you can centrally monitor sensors with trending and more. This is optional and not required.
