  1. TraceTek Leak Detection New Products and Applications February 2011

  2. TraceTek System Overview • Sensor Cables and Probes: • Water • Aqueous Chemicals • Fuels • Organic Solvents • Acid • Water Probes / Fast Fuel Sensing Probes • Interface Modules to monitor sensors and produce electrical or data signals • User / System Interface Options • Dedicated Alarm Panels • Windows Supervisory Software • Interface to other BMS and DCS systems • Direct to Web Interface

  3. TraceTek System Overview TT1000 TT1100-OHP Water Sensing Cable TT3000 Chemical Sensing Cable TT5000/5001 Fuel/ Solvent Sensing Cable TT7000 Acid Sensing Cable Probes and Floats Sensors TTSIM-1 Long Range TTSIM-1A TTSIM-2 TTC-1 Relay Only Flasher TT-TAR Mesh Radio(Emerson) Accutech(Schnieder) Interface Touch Screen TTDM-128 Alarm Panel Custom Alarm Panels Supervisor Software Modbus to other BMS or DCS Web Server Display

  5. TT1100-OHP Water Sensing Cable

  6. TT1100-OHP Water Sensing Cable Feature Benefit Wicking action, dirt protection - but longer drying times More flexible than fluoropolymer core (TT1000) – polyester rope / polyethylene core are not plenum rated Easy to trace pipe • Polyester rope over braid (Black w/Yellow Tracer) • PE core • Pre-terminated or cut to length

  7. TraceTek 3000 Aqueous Chemicals 0.24 in. (6.0 mm) Continuity wire Sensing wires (2) Signal wire © 1997 Raychem Corporation

  8. TT5000 Series for Nonconductive Liquids TT5000 for fuels and oils TT5001 for organic solvents

  9. TT5000-HUV Fuel Sensing Cable Feature Benefit Extra UV Protection Stronger, easier to handle compared to TT5000 Improved crush resistance makes it easier to strap to pipe Easy to match pipe system • Polyester rope over braid (Black w/ Red Tracer) • Pre-terminated or cut to length

  10. What about TT5001 –HUV and –HS? Yes they exist Benefit Same as TT5000 series -HS yields better pull strength and lower friction needed for long slotted conduit pulls -HUV has enhanced UV protection and is suitable for more rugged handling above ground • TT5001-HS (White PE over braid w/ purple tracer) • TT5001-HUV (Black polyester w/ purple tracer) • Limited release

  12. TT7000–HUV Feature Benefit Sensor can be exposed to rain, snow, salt water spray --- and no false alarms Electrode coating dissolves when exposed to strong sulfuric or nitric acid and sensor detects and locates point of contact Enhanced UV protection, rugged handling • ‘Water-proof’ electrodes with acid soluble coating • Black polyester over braid No Tracer

  13. Probes for low point detection ofWater or Fuel

  14. TTSIM-1 • Maximum range, maximum accuracy. • 1500 meters (5000 ft) • 20 bit A/D • Precision control of sensitivity • Compatible with all TraceTek cables and probes • Can also interface to other devices which signal an alarm with a closed contact • Serial Data Out: • Modbus RTU/ASCII • N2 Open (JCI)

  15. TTSIM-1A • Moderate Range and Accuracy with Relay Output • 150 meters (500ft) • Compatible with all TraceTek cables and probes • Can also interface to other devices which signal an alarm with a closed contact • Serial Data Out: • Modbus RTU/ASCII • N2 Open (JCI) • Relay Contact for Local Use • 3A Form-C relay for leak alarm and trouble (if desired) • NEW MICROPROCESSOR

  16. TTSIM-2 • Moderate Range, Built In Location Display • 150 meters (500 ft) • 3 Digit Display for Leak Location • Compatible with all TraceTek cables and probes • Can also interface to other devices which signal an alarm with a closed contact • Serial Data Out: • Modbus RTU/ASCII • N2 Open (JCI) • Relay Contact for Local Use • 3A Form-C relay for leak alarm and trouble (if desired) • NEW MICROPROCESSOR

  17. TTC-1 • Limited Length applications • 30m (100 Ft) • Two relays • One for leak detection • One for trouble • Simple status indication • Low input voltage • AC or DC

  18. Battery Powered Flasher • This unit uses high efficiency LED’s that can be easily seen when a leak is detected. • When the sensor is contacted by the fuel or oil, the LED’s will begin to flash at one second interval. • Flashing will continue for at least 30 days (much longer in early years) • 5 to 10 year battery life

  19. TT-TAR Transducer 2-wire 4-20 mA Output

  20. Emerson/Rosemount Type 702-61 Transmitters 150 m of TT5000 or TT50001 And/Or Up to three TT-FFS Probes Up to 100 transmitters • Output to: • TTDM-128 • New Touch Screen (when released) • Direct to DCS software • Also works with TT7000 and TT3000

  21. Accutech? • Hub and Spoke Type Wireless • Lower Cost the Emerson • Focused on production: well heads, gathering lines, field pumps, etc • Looks to be a simple interface • Still in early discussion

  22. TTDM-128 Alarm Panel

  23. Custom Alarm Panels

  24. Dedicated PC Based Monitoringwith TT-Supervisor

  26. TraceTekApplications

  27. Detecting water leaks in commercial buildings and control rooms

  28. TT1100-OHP installed in Madrid AirportPipe Tunnel Similar project underway in Berlin using TT1100-THIN

  29. Slotted PVC Conduit beside pipeline

  30. Leak Detection for Transmission andTransfer Pipelines

  31. Installing cable in PVC conduit systems

  32. TT5000-HUV installed at Port of Townsville Australia Next large TT5000-HUV project ready to ship to Vopak in Rotterdam in February 2011 ~4 km in terminal piping

  33. TT7000 Installation in Japan and Indonesia

  34. Cable in double wall pipe

  35. Leak Detection for Buried Valves with TT 5000 in Canada and US

  36. Above Ground Storage Applications Buncefield Tank Farm, UK, December 2005. Overfill and undetected leak of unleaded gasoline

  37. Tank Farm Critical Scenarios Total (France) Study 1997 to 2006 297 Incidents studied – 10 scenarios identified – 5 scenarios would have been managed better with fuel leak detection systems • Tank Overfill (probe solution) • Tank Roof leaks (probe solution) • Mixer, flange, valve or pipe work leak (probe solution) • Roof drain and tank drain failure (probe solution) • Fractured tank (cable solution)

  38. Quickly detect a fuel spill in time to activate the emergency response plan FFS probes installed at low point sump for Total Tank Farm, France

  39. Tank Overfill Detection

  40. Prevention measure: liquid detection systems under the bottom plate or in the service void : sensing cables buried within slotted pipes 5. Fractured tank fractured bottom plate, => large spill => Ground subsidence => bund explosion / fire => tank fire

  41. Early detection of fuel leaks and spills Pictures from the VRT internet website.

  42. Tank bottom monitoring Buried under the tanks with horizontal drilling machines Installed into slotted PVC pipe High Sensitivity sensor cable

  43. AST Applications Typical plan view

  44. Tank Bottom Monitoring with TT5000 and TT-FlasherIn US, France, Spain, Belgium and UAE

  45. Small Tanks, Portable Equipment

  46. Range of Options for Tank Farms • Manual Inspection • Hand Held: TT-FFS Test Instrument, PTB • TT-FLASHER-BE • Low Cost – still manual but easy to detect • Two wire • 4 – 20 ma useful for retro fit if two wire circuits are available • Emerson Mesh • Greatly reduce wiring cost compared to traditional 4 wire • New TTDM software upgrade available for Emerson Gateway • Standard TraceTek 4-wire • Best overall for longer lengths • Only method that reports leak location automatically
