When several generator sets are to be monitored for hydrocarbons leaks, it is important that they can be monitored independently and that the location is accurately displayed in the event of a leak.
Equipped with eight independent detection zones, TTK's
FG-ALS8-OD is designed for medium to large-sized applications requiring accurate hydrocarbons leak location. In a generator set room as shown in the below illustration, each hydrocarbon sensing cable is installed around a generator set, which corresponds to a dedicated zone. In the event of a leak, the alarm panel displays the zone location where the leak occurs (for example, Generator N°4).
Since the
FG-ALS8-OD is equipped with RS485 serial link with JBUS/MODBUS protocol, it reports the alarm to the BMS for an even faster action to reduce downtime. Leak and cable break relays are available, which can allow automatic shut off of the leak source when configured.
Compared to its “younger sister”, the FG-ALS4-OD – four zones panel, the
FG-ALS8-OD doubles the system capacity (8 hydrocarbon cables vs. 4 cables at 12 metres length in any configuration required). It is simpler and more cost-effective than an
FG-NET, a versatile monitoring panel more suitable for large-sized applications.
The
FG-ALS8-OD is a cost-effective solution for any hydrocarbon liquids leak detection.
