  2. Water penetration: a major threat to treasures in museum basements

  3. Leak Detection Systems For Shanghai World Financial Centre TraceTek water leak detection systems are being installed throughout the Shanghai World Financial Center - one of the world’s tallest buildings. To prevent disruption to business continuity, water sensing cables are being located in all sensitive environments, like the building’s data centers, computer rooms etc., and in close proximity to water services. Designed by Kohn Pedersen Fox for Mori Building Co. Ltd., the Shanghai World Financial Center, in the People’s Republic of China, has 101 floors above ground and towers to a height of 492 meters. It is a 4 million sq ft. mixed use facility comprising prestige office space for world banks and financial institutions, a 180 room 5-star hotel, retail shopping mall, international conference facilities and observation decks. Johnson Controls is providing the integrated BMS for this landmark development and part of this responsibility includes the provision of water leak detection within the building. Some 4km of TraceTek water sensing cable and 80 electronic control modules are being installed to safeguard data centers, computer rooms, air conditioning plant, kitchens and a swimming pool. With its global presence, Tyco Thermal Controls was recognized as a secure partner for this major project and has been contributing ‘local’ technical support on leak detection right from the design phase.

  7. Hidden leaks under control • The major risk is to have an undetected leak under one of the four crude oil tanks, • The solution has been to bury one kilometer ( 4 times 250 meters) of TT5000 cable around the perimeter of the tanks. • Benefits: the tanks will be monitored 24h a day, 7 days a week.

  10. Emergency plan triggering system • The risk was to have undetected leaks in the bunds around the tanks in the refinery • The solution has been to install multiple TT-FFS device in the sump at the lower point of the bund. • Features: one Fast Fuel Sensor is mounted on a floating device to detect the presence of floating hydrocarbons on the top of water while a second TT-FFS is fixed at the lower point to detect sinking hydrocarbons.

  21. Pipe systems from small oil ports can pose ecological threats Case Studies: Pipelines traversing beaches on Mayotte Island, Tanzania and on the coast of Chile THE RISK At small oil ports around the world, tankers often unload their cargo of crude oil or refined fuels into small pipe systems that traverse ecologically sensitive beach and dune zones. Where operation is intermittent and pipeline lengths relatively short, traditional SCADA-based leak detection systems which rely on predictable constant flow rates are rendered ineffective. In fact even large leaks during off-loading may go completely undetected, compromising operators’ environmental responsibility and devastating the local ecology. THE SOLUTION Tyco Thermal Controls is able to offer companies facing this risk with a better solution with TraceTek TT5000 - one of the only effective leak detection systems for such critically environmentally sensitive areas. The TraceTek TT5000 pipeline monitoring system uses specialist hydrocarbon leak detection cable buried inside slotted conduit in the same trench as the pipework. Once installed, with as many individual 1km circuits as necessary, the system can monitor the entire pipeline and detect and pinpoint the location of a leak to +/- 1 metre. Each circuit has its own Sensor Interface Module (SIM) and up to 128 SIMs can be networked back to the alarm and user interface panel. SPECIFIC APPLICATION Short pipeline systems, on Mayotte Island, Tanzania and on the coast of Chile are just two of the locations with beach and dune zones where operators with environmental concerns have employed TT5000 fuel sensor cables as their primary leak detection system. In both cases they have been installed along with the single wall steel pipes to provide a long-term monitoring and leak alert capability.

  22. Avoiding ground water pollution at tank farm CASE STUDY: Coast Oil Co., San Jose, USA THE RISK Coast Oil Co. is one of the USA’s largest distributors of gasoline, diesel fuel and lubricants At its San Jose tank farm, the company has twelve closely grouped small diameter tanks. The challenge was to retro-fit this facility with and effective leak detection system to monitor the soil beneath the tanks without interrupting commercial operations. THE SOLUTION TTC provided the solution with TT5000 sensing cable installed within PVC conduit in the soil beneath fuel tanks. Any spillage is drawn into the conduit by capillary action. SPECIFIC APPLICATION At this tank farm, rather than continuous monitoring, Coast Oil operators opted to make for periodic measurements with a battery-powered TraceTek test instrument at junction boxes on vertical risers. The Company’s rationale was simply to detect minor floor plate leaks while still small seepage and consequently taking a few extra days to interrogate the system will have little or no impact on the cost or volume of soil remediation. Whilst the closeness of the tanks posed working space limitations for the installers, they overcame them using a small, manoeuvrable horizontal drilling machine, operating an air-ram boring tools rather than a rotating drill bit.
