Hydrocarbon Fuel Detection Cable

The EX-LS-O4 is designed exclusively to detect leaks of hydrocarbon-based fuels (gasoline, diesel, xylene) while ignoring water. It is the critical first line of defense against environmental contamination and fire hazards.

Key Benefits:

  • Fuel-Specific Detection: Triggers on hydrocarbon fuels: gasoline, diesel and xylene.
  • Water Immunity: Uniquely engineered to ignore water, preventing false alarms from rain or condensation.
  • Environmental Compliance: Helps meet regulatory requirements for spill prevention and control.
  • Risk Mitigation: Early detection of fuel leaks prevents costly clean-ups, fines, and fire risks.

Ideal For: Fuel storage farms, generator rooms, aircraft hangars, automotive garages, and any area storing or handling liquid hydrocarbons.
