TH&D102 POLLU_ FLUIDNAPOR DETECTION SYSTEM SENSES AIR, WATER Or HYDROCARBONS. Tank leaks cost a lot more than the price of lost petroleum. They can rob your cash flow through chaotic disruptions. Or steal your profits through longer-term interruptions. But worse, underground leaks can seep into streams or community water supplies. They can endanger housing projects. Or threaten individual home owners with noxious fumes from basements or crawl spaces. They can spark disaster to entire neighborhoods. Clean up costs can run into millions of dollars. And cleaning up the various litigations that result can cost you your business. Industry experts contend that many tanks installed during the "gas station boom years" are now corroding and beginning to leak. The truth is --no underground storage tank offers total assurance against hidden leaks. Recent court decisions reflect this fact. An alarming number of judgements have been upheld against companies whose leaking tanks contaminated surrounding ground water. The environment is still an issue. And when the damage is "close to home," legal reaction is sometimes quick and costly. You can't afford the costs of ignorance—not knowing if you have a leak or what the consequences might be. And there is only one way to stop hidden leaks before they seep into dangerous grounds: an early warning system of underground sensing devices. The FD 102 Pollulert"� Fluid Detection System is designed specifically to meet the needs of anyone with above or below ground tank storage. Up to 10 sophisticated probes "sense" the underground perimeter around your tanks for air, water or hydrocarbons (petroleum in various forms). The status of the probes is displayed above ground on a small, space -saving monitor. Of course, when hydrocarbons are present, the status is reported in a "more urgent" manner. Mallory Pollulert Fluid Detection System operates continuously. 24 hours a day. When the monitor is attended—or when no one is there. Probe status is displayed visibly at both the probe and monitor. Hydrocarbon detection is signalled both audibly and visually. Once it "sounds" at the monitor, you can trace the exact location by checking status lights at individual probes. The hydrocarbon alarm can be transmitted any distance by connecting data transmission equipment through relay terminals... The system can be interfaced to a alert you by telephone, or activate countermeasures such as pumps or valves.
