Europress LAD-10 is a leak detector system to monitor the interstitial space of double skin steel tanks.
The LAD-10 leak detector for overpressure systems with an alarm overpressure of 465 mbar is a class 1 leak detector according to EN 13160-1.
It can be used for water polluting, non-inflammable liquids and hazardous inflammable liquids of classes A I, A II, A III and B. which contain polluting liquids, flammable liquids or class A I, A II, A III and B explosives.
Operating principle:
The system monitors and maintains a certain pressure in the interstitial space of the tank. The safety valve, installed on LAD-10, operates automatically when the pressure rises above 570 mbar. If the pressure drops below the preset level of 465 mbar, the system, in addition to switch a contact, activates an optical and acoustic alarm.
Designed for installation in dry, accessible, frost-free rooms. Pressure type leak detectors are operated with dried air (10 % relative humidity). Drying filters with replaceable drying beads are used to dry the air.
