Fuel oil leak detection systems are designed to detect the presence of leaking fuel oil, kerosene and diesel. They are used in a variety of applications, including the detection of leaking storage tanks, leaks from fuel pumps, leaks within bunded fuel tanks, pipe-in-pipe leaks, and generators leaking fuel onto the floor.
There are a number of different types of fuel oil leak detection systems available, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Some of the most common types of systems include
• Contact sensors: These sensors are placed in contact with the fuel oil, and they detect leaks by measuring the change in electrical resistance between the sensor and the fuel oil.
• Non-contact sensors: These sensors do not need to be in contact with the fuel oil to detect leaks. They use a variety of technologies, such as ultrasonic waves or infrared radiation, to detect the presence of leaks.
Fuel oil leak detection systems can be an important part of a comprehensive safety program. By detecting leaks early, they can help to prevent environmental damage and costly repairs.
